About Us

A young American created Fat Tire Bike Tours in Paris, France in May 1999 and since that first day, the company has led hundreds of thousands of customers through Paris, Versailles and Normandy (Monet's Gardens) on bicycle.

In 2003 Fat Tire was asked to lead a group of journalists around Paris while riding on these new state-of-the-art machines called Segways. While we rode bicycles, the journalists rode Segways and we were only permitted to try out the Segways at the Louvre, just beside the grand pyramid.

The machines were fantastic and the ease at which one could maneuver was impressive. Suddenly we were much more photographed and interesting to others than the Louvre's pyramid and - bingo - the idea for City Segway Tours was born. It was abundantly clear that the history of the Eiffel Tower didn't change whether we were leading guests on bicycle or on Segways, and the routes also could to be similar as they're both wheeled vehicles. Soon after, City Segway Tours became the first Segway tour in the world.

Since 2003 we have expended to open multiple operations in both Europe and the USA and look forward to continued expansion. There is no other Segway tour company on the planet that has our experience, our unparalleled number of satisfied customers and offers you more tours in the world's top destinations.

Be sure you glide with the original - City Segway Tours!

A Great Time

We had a great time! There was enough "fun facts" to keep our interest (even though we're DC natives), without overwhelming or distracting us from the amazing experience of zipping around on the segway. The group leader, Megan, did a great job of ensuring that everyone was comfortable with operating the segway before beginning the tour. Now we have something new to do with future out-of-town guests that we'd love to do again!
