PROS:

  1. You get to ride a segway.
  2. You get to ride a segway.
  3. You get to ride a segway.

CONS:

As Songbae says, It’s almost as embarrassing as wearing a bluetooth.

It costs $70 for three hours.

It actually takes SOME coordination. (Bella crashed three times.)

You are required to do a half hour training session, and wear a helmet.

Segways are not allowed on the Mall, so despite the fact that you can cover more ground than by walking, you still don’t go to the Lincoln Memorial or Roosevelt Fountain.

Although you spend the good part of 2 1/2 hours on the segway, that also means that you don’t have time to go into any of the Smithsonian museums that you pass.
