There was a Segway event a couple of years ago that my sister and I participated in. The Segway Club sponsored it. It wasn't exactly a "tour" of The Villages, but a ride though a neighborhood. There were lessons prior to hitting the road. One has to learn how to propel the vehicles, how to get on and off safely, etc.

My sister loved it. I'm still not sure how I felt about it... I'm not tall and the handlebars, even though lowered, still were not at a good height for me. Really, we all had a good time....many people gave Segway propulsion a try that day!
