Magic Broomsticks do a fantastic tourist experience with the Devonport Segway Tour. They are remarkably easy to ride, it's a real in the moment experience, rather than sitting in a bus and looking out the window, and you get training prior to going out!
I saw them once we were visiting North Head as a family, and took a quick photo from the car window. I was inspired!
Now just to find an occasion to warrant such a treat. Luckily my Mum was coming over to New Zealand... and it happened to be her birthday while she was here. So, I had a plan, an event, and made a booking!
We were in a group of 5 people, and while out on the tour, we had people pointing, staring and taking photos, we 'were' the tourist attraction for the day, which just added to the fun! A few people fell over, but not many, and we had fun racing around a park for a while between North Head and Mount Victoria.
Brilliant day out, we all left with the Segway smile!
Very welcome, it was a perfect excuse to go on an adventure!
