In the city where I live, Amsterdam, there used to be a few people riding around on segways. However, 2 or 3 years ago, the futuristic transport devices seemed to disappear from the urban landscape. In 2007 there was supposed to have been a national ban on segways from public streets. Somehow in the beloved city of Delft in 2009, segway tours are still going strong.
A segway tour of Delft lasts about an hour. You can book it at the tourist information point, keeping in mind that its a minimum group of 4, otherwise you have to pay a surcharge. The €56, 60 minute tour is given by a professional guide, as is the €46, 45-minute tour. The tours depart 4 times daily, check the website for exact times.
While you may not be able to experience the wonder of seeing all Dutch cities by segway, it is still pretty cool that a city like Delft still offers you that unique option.
