Granada: Albaicin and Sacromonte Segway Tour





Description
Discover mysterious neighborhoods of Granada on 2 hour monumental segway tour. It's a great way to see Sacromonte and Albaicin with local experienced instructor. Due to special geographical location Granada offers great routes with picturesque views. The city is situated at the foot of the Sierra Nevada mountains so the streets go up and down making segway probably the most comfortable way of transportation. This tour doesn't include Alhambra, however you will enjoy observing it from San Nicholas and many other viewpoints. Pass by Plaza Nueva, Fuente del Toro, Paseo de los Tristes, old gypsy caves all the way up to Abadia del Sacromonte. The Sacromonte Abbey shows the cultural past of the city and is vital to understanding the history of Granada. Wonder through the narrow streets of Albaicin neighborhood, pass by Mosque of Granada and take photos on one of the most famous viewpoints - San Nicholas square.

Absolutely amazing experience for both myself and my 13-year-old son. From start to finish, the entire tour was exciting, engaging, and an absolute pleasure. I would especially like to thank our tour guide, Fares, who made the experience even more enjoyable with his knowledge, enthusiasm, and professionalism. We booked a private tour, and it was worth every euro. I would 100% recommend this company to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience.
Great way to see parts of the city. Fares, our guide, shared historical insights and personal stories in an excellent way. A fun and memorable experience.
The Segway tour was the highlight of my trip, what a fun way of discovering the old town and seeing all the spectacular views. What made it even more special was our instructor Fares, who made the whole experience more fun and really helpful. 10/10 would recommend.
We had an amazing Segway tour in Granada with Fares, and I honestly can’t recommend him highly enough! Our group included complete beginners who had never been on a Segway before, but Fares was an excellent teacher. He took the time to explain everything clearly, gave us plenty of practice, and made sure everyone felt confident before we set off. He was incredibly patient, encouraging, and always kept a close eye on the group to make sure everyone was comfortable and safe. Beyond being a fantastic instructor, Fares was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience so much fun. He shared interesting facts about Granada along the way and created a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere from start to finish. If you’re thinking about doing a Segway tour in Granada, ask for Fares you’ll be in the best hands. It was one of the highlights of our trip, and we’d happily do it all over again. Thank you, Fares!
It was a great way to see the sights and entertain the kids at the same time. Our guide Fares was great and very knowledgeable.
It was very cool. The Guide Fares was very nice and he explained everything very good. It was perfekt. Fares is the goat!
Fantastic experience for young and old! We all loved it! Great way to see the city - Feras was a super guide!
A very nice guide who teaches you if you don't know how to control it. The price is very good, the experience was extraordinary, I would repeat it many times. Recommended.
We had the most fantastic Segway tour with TopSegway through the Albaicín and Sacromonte in Granada, and it was hands-down one of the highlights of our trip! As a party of five (with adult children ages 20–26), we were all first-timers on Segways, but our guide Kaell made everything feel easy, safe, and unforgettable. Kaell was incredibly patient from the very beginning, giving us clear instructions and building our confidence quickly. He’s not just an expert rider—he’s an outstanding tour guide and passionate historian. His stories brought the historic neighborhoods, stunning views, and cultural gems of Granada to life in such an engaging way. We learned so much while having a blast zipping around! One funny (and slightly nerve-wracking) moment: heading up a steep hill, I pulled back on the steering wheel, but started going faster than expected. Kaell reacted in a split second, grabbing my steering wheel and steadying me perfectly. I was absolutely fine and felt totally safe the entire time. He’s an absolute pro on the Segway! My adult kids loved it even more than I did—it quickly became their favorite tour of the entire trip. We saw so many beautiful sites that we would have missed otherwise. This is such a fun, unique, and efficient way to explore Granada’s magical streets and viewpoints. Highly, highly recommend TopSegway and especially booking with Kaell! If you’re in Granada, don’t miss this experience. Thank you, Kaell—you made our family adventure truly special! 🙌
This is not a tour designed for everyone. You really should have prior experience on a Segway and know that you are already capable on challenging, steep, narrow, winding, uneven, bumpy cobblestone streets in the midst of pedestrian tourists and motorbikes. We believed the advertised description of this experience being appropriate for ages 16 to 99. I think the current ad says for ages 9 to 100. Don't believe it! The ad also mentions that your guide will go over the basics of Segway operation before the tour begins. In reality the guide weeds out the people who would be at risk if they attempted the tour. Because nobody wants to have an accident and injure themselves or others. This could raise liability issues for the tour company as well. My husband and I gladly declined to participate after trying to use the Segway because we could see that we would be struggling the whole way, concentrating on driving/riding the blasted thing and not enjoying a moment of charming atmosphere or panoramic views. The kicker is, that the tour company kept our money, and we didn't get a refund until TripAdvisor/Viator stepped in to help us. My advice to the tour company is: 1) Stop the false advertising. 2) Admit that you are testing and screening for those who shouldn't participate. 3) Offer to return the money to those who don't pass muster. And my advice to potential customers is: Don't sign up for this unless you know you can do it without risk. Or take the risk that you may waste your morning on something that doesn't pan out for you and/or others in your group. And then you get to negotiate for a refund. I learned that I would rather WALK slowly up and down the Albaicin and Sacromonte hills to appreciate the scenery for free.
Hola! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry that the Segway tour wasn't the experience you were hoping for. We'd just like to clarify a few things for anyone reading your review. Every single tour starts with a full training session, especially because most of our guests have never ridden a Segway before. Over the years, we've welcomed thousands of people of all ages, and for many of them it was their very first time. Your guide Carme also spent time training you, just as we do with every guest. Our number one priority is safety. If, after the training, we feel that someone isn't comfortable enough to ride safely on the route, we simply can't let them continue. We'd rather disappoint someone than risk an accident. Whenever possible, we also offer alternatives, such as joining the tour by e-bike, for guests who don't feel confident on a Segway. We'd also like to clarify that your refund was processed. We certainly never intended to keep your money, and we're sorry if the process felt frustrating from your perspective. We completely understand that a Segway tour isn't for everyone, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with preferring to explore the Albaicín and Sacromonte on foot—they're beautiful either way! We wish you a wonderful rest of your travels and thank you again for sharing your thoughts :)
