This Segway Tours WA outing covers the Rottnest Island settlement in about an hour. The listing rates it 4.7 from 62 reviews, from A$98 per person. Training comes first, then a guide leads the glide with radio headsets and safety gear provided. Cancellation is free.
This tour puts you on a Segway within the Thomson Bay Settlement and takes you past spots such as Bickley Bay and the Bathurst Lighthouse in roughly an hour. No prior Segway experience is needed. Training and a practice session come first, and the operator says riders are assessed before the tour sets off.
The content is as much history as riding. Guides, who are accredited and in some cases award-winning, talk through the island's past, including the parts the listing describes as controversial, while you glide between lookouts over the turquoise water. Riders wear personal radios so the guide's commentary reaches everyone without shouting over the wind.
It suits travellers from age 12 upward, with no upper age limit, provided riders weigh between 45 and 118 kilograms and meet the health conditions in the listing. Several reviewers said the tour worked for their whole group, from a 12 year old to adults in their mid 50s, and one described it as a highlight of their Rottnest trip. If you have limited time on the island, one reviewer said this tour was a fun way to see Rottnest on a short visit.
A few practical points will help you get the most from the hour, based on the listing and what travellers report.
Common issues. The main limits are physical: riders must be 12 or over, within the stated weight range, and free of the mobility or motor control issues the listing flags. Pregnant guests are excluded, and unaccompanied minors cannot join.
Pickup is not included. The meeting point is on Bedford Avenue, next to the Dome Cafe in the Settlement area of Rottnest Island, about a 5-minute walk from the ferry jetty. Arrive with time to spare after your ferry arrives.
Rider training and assessment, an experienced guide, personal radio communication so you can hear the commentary, and all safety equipment are included. The listing does not name any excluded items.
No. The listing states no experience is required and that Segways are easy to ride. You are trained and assessed before the tour begins, and several reviewers said the training gave them confidence quickly.
Riders must be at least 12 years old, and guests under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Unaccompanied minors are not allowed. There is no upper age limit.
You can cancel up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund. The listing does not state the terms for cancellations inside that window.
Covered footwear is preferable, and you should avoid bringing luggage or large bags as they are not allowed. The weight range for riders is over 45 kilograms and under 118 kilograms.
