Tour Overview

Embark on a unique journey through the charming streets of Devonport, Auckland’s historic seaside village, with an engaging Segway tour that combines modern technology with rich history. This tour not only introduces you to the intuitive art of Segway riding but also allows ample time for practice. Perfect for beginners and experienced riders alike, the tour starts with a comprehensive instruction session ensuring you’re ready to glide effortlessly.

As you navigate the Waterfront, take in the serene ambiance of Devonport, characterized by its Victorian villas and serene landscapes. The route leads you to Cheltenham Beach, a tranquil spot with expansive views of the Hauraki Gulf and the impressive outline of Rangitoto Island. This young volcanic cone, a mere 650 years old, provides a dramatic backdrop that contrasts beautifully against the peaceful waters of the Gulf.

The experience continues as you loop back to the base at Devonport Wharf, traversing both the bustling main roads and the quieter back streets. Here, the Segway proves its versatility, handling both inclines and declines with ease, allowing you to focus on the picturesque surroundings and architectural beauty of the area.

This tour is not just about sightseeing but also about enjoying a new way of moving through one of Auckland’s most storied neighborhoods, offering a fresh perspective on its heritage and scenic landscapes.
