BestDam Segway Tours

The Best Dam Segway Tours began as an initiative by two enterprising Americans who wished to blend the architectural splendour, illustrious history and liberal dogma of Amsterdam with a thrilling tour on vehicles that were user-friendly and great for the environment. After meticulous research and a number of Segway purchases later, the Best Dam Segway Tour enterprise was launched.

So, what is a Segway?

A Segway is basically a two-wheeled, self-balancing machine that one stands upon to get from A to B. Simple enough. What gives the Segway extra brownie points is that it is ridiculously easy-to-learn, comfortable to ride and efficient to navigate.
