Guided Segway Tour of Upton Country Park, Poole.
Experience Summary
Upon arrival you will be greeted by your instructor who will issue you with safety equipment, run through a safety brief and get you on your Segway in our practice area. Once everyone is feeling confident and your Instructor is happy with your progress you will then venture into the Gardens and Woodland of Upton House and Country Park.
Your guided Segway Tour will begin with a glide through the grounds to a breath taking view across Holes Bay. From here we will continue through the nature reserve where you will see an abundance of wildlife and plants, some of which are unique to this site.
As we head back up toward the house there will be an opportunity for one of our professional photographers to take pictures of you on your Segway overlooking the grounds or the House itself, which will be available to purchase after your tour as a reminder of this exciting experience.
Your tour will also take you off the beaten path when we venture into Grove Woods. Here you will see what these amazing machines can really do as you zap through the trees and up and down slopes on dirt tracks!
Format
Upon arrival you will be checked in by your Instructor. You will sign an indemnity form and collect your helmet, gloves etc. If you have your own cycle / skateboard helmet and gloves you are welcome to bring them with you to wear on the day. You will then be given a brief on the Segway and some practice time to get confident. When you and your instructor are happy with your ability to control the Segway, you will be taken in a group for your Guided Segway Tour. At the end of the tour photos will be available for purchase.
