Tourism is a wonderful market to get into.
There will always be tourists and tourists love to spend money. You can sell tours to them and they get to ride on a Segway! You can charge $65 or more per person and take small groups of 5-10 people on tours. Each tour should last no longer than 2 hours.
Segways are those new two wheeled vehicles that tourists can stand on and tour without the foot pain often associated with walking tours. It takes a little time to show people how to use them, but they are the best idea for tours that could otherwise be made by walking. It is nice to be able to cover large areas of walking tours with these Segways.
If you are close to an area frequented by tourists, you can offer tours to them and they get to ride on a Segway! This will make the tour even more attractive, by offering your tours with these fun little people movers.
There are even people that would just love to learn how to use the Segway first. Offer a simple tour that helps people learn how to use a Segway and offer it for far less. Maybe you could charge $25 per person for a brief 30-minute tour that includes lessons of how to use the Segway. (Be sure to include safety tips and proper etiquette with pedestrians and large vehicles!) This would be a good opportunity for those that are not sure if they would be comfortable using a Segway on a tour. Once they experience the fun, they are sure to want a longer tour with you to follow. (Offer a discount to these new users for a tour of their choice after.)
Since you will be offering these Segways for your tours, you will need to invest in a good number of them. Depending on how many people you plan to take on your tours. Check your local area and see if you can buy or lease these fun little vehicles. They can be expensive so you will want to be prepared to spend a sizable amount of money, but the investment will be well worth it. Your tours should make it easy to enjoy a return on your investment plus!
Because you offer your tours with Segways, it will make your tours more attractive than other walking tours in the area. Sad but true, as people get older they tend to travel more, but if they have trouble walking for long periods of time it can be very difficult for them to take part on these fun tours they would otherwise miss out on.
If you decide that you want to do this, make sure that the area you are touring will allow Segways. You may have to check with local ordinances and make sure that they will allow you to have small groups of Segways on tours of the area. Usually if there are paths for bicycling, you will be able to use them. When it comes to busy city sidewalks, you may have to do some research to make sure that your tours will not cause more congestion and difficulty. You may simply be able to offer your tours at times that the sidewalks are not as busy during the day.
