A Segway tour is one of those experiences that looks a little odd until you actually get on one and then you wonder why anyone walks anywhere. The self-balancing technology is surprisingly intuitive. You lean forward to move, shift your weight to turn, and within minutes you are gliding through a destination in a way that walking simply cannot match. RedBalloon has guided Segway tours across Australia, from Brisbane and Cairns to Rottnest Island, the Whitsundays, and Uluru. They are a genuinely fun way to explore and a great option for people who want to see more without wearing themselves out. .
Where can you do a Segway tour in Australia?
The locations are part of what makes Segway tours so appealing. You are not gliding through a car park, you are exploring somewhere worth exploring.
In Queensland, you can tour the Brisbane Riverwalk and city parklands, cruise the Whitsundays boardwalk at sunset, or glide through Tropical North Queensland rainforest. Western Australia has Segway tours on Rottnest Island, letting you cover ground between beaches far more efficiently than cycling. And in the Northern Territory, Uluru tours at sunrise or sunset are genuinely special. Pair a Segway tour with a scenic flight for a full destination day.
Do I need experience to ride a Segway?
None whatsoever. Every Segway tour starts with a briefing and a short training session to get you comfortable before the actual tour begins. Most people find they are confident within five to ten minutes. Tours are guided, so you are never on your own trying to figure things out.
Segway tours as a group activity
Segway tours work brilliantly for groups. They are social, active without being physically demanding, and entertaining for everyone, including people who are watching. They pair well with other outdoor experiences and make a great component of a day out with friends, family, or colleagues.

Requirements vary by operator. Most have a minimum age of around 12 and a weight range of approximately 45–115kg. Check individual experience details before booking.
Are Segway tours child friendly?
Many are but be sure to check the individual listing for the minimum age. Younger teens often find Segway tours one of the most memorable parts of a trip.
How long does a Segway tour typically run?
