We took the 2 hour Segway tour of NOLA with Rod! He was a great tour guide. He was knowledgeable and made me feel safe during the tour as it was my first time on the Segway. Thanks Rod for showing us NOLA!

Also, younger riders must have enough skill to follow in a single file line behind the guide, so they are not in danger of veering into traffic.
