FYI- Walt Disney World has a Segway Tour program. There are two different tours: one is at Epcot The World before they open to the public in the morning, and the other utilizes off road versions to tour the woodlands between and around Fort Wilderness and the Wilderness Lodge. I took the off road tour and had a blast. They give you lessons first on a closed course and then take you out for the tour. The two guides were also knowledgeable in the local nature and Disney facts, so they plyed games and made the tour even more enjoyable.
