Now entering our second year here at Leeds Castle, and our fourth year as a Segway daler, we are pleased to announce that Alex our senior tour guide of last year will be back with us, as the Tour Manager.

Many of our regulars from last year commented on how surprisingly easy it is to learn to ride and master a Segway, and also just how much fun it was. In fact it is so much fun that it was not unusual for some people to come to the end of the tour and ask “can we go again on the next tour?”  This just serves as testament to how different and exciting it is.

Our escorted tour takes in some of the gardens and grounds of this magnificent Castle, and we are able to offer you views of the Castle rarely afforded to regular visitors. From our elevated position at the midpoint of the tour you will see the Castle laid out before you, surrounded by trees and with the Pilgrims Way as a scenic backdrop.

Described by many as 'gliding', you will spend approximately 35 minutes riding through some of the most picturesque countryside of Kent, often refered to as The Garden of England.

Incredibly easy to learn to ride, the Segway balances for you, and is totally intuitive, with most people becoming confident within the space of just a few minutes.

We do stress that this is not a race or rally event, so no need to worry about having to be good to keep up; we will travel at a speed comfortable for everyone.

Whilst this is not a fully narrated history tour, our experienced guides have a wealth of knowledge regarding the Castle and its surroundings. Be it snippets of information on the history, legend or wildlife, there is enough to make this interesting for everyone, even if you have been with us before.

This is a rare and unique opportunity in the UK; no other historical visitor attraction is able to offer a Segway tour. Our tour offers great value for money, especially as you can take the tour without the need to purchase a castle entry ticket.

Don’t forget your camera, as we are happy to take a group photo of you, and you might just be lucky enough to get Colin our friendly Peacock to put on a display for you!

Don't just take our word, here are some comments from our customers.
