What to expect
You'll start with a hands-on induction covering balance, acceleration and braking—expect to feel confident within minutes. Once comfortable, your guide leads you on a 45-minute route through Amboise's key spots, pointing out stories you'd miss from a moving tour bus. The Segway handles uneven medieval pavements reasonably well, though you'll dismount for cobbled sections. It's more about gentle sightseeing than speed.
Good to know
Book early; sessions fill quickly in peak season. Wear flat shoes and avoid loose clothing. The machine isn't suitable if you have spinal issues, are pregnant, or have serious heart conditions. Nearby bus stops offer alternative transport options.
