You can take Segway rides through paradise in Hawaii

You can take Segway rides through paradise It’s as easy as walking—and more fun.

You can now tour many places on Oahu on a Segway.

Segway of Hawaii offers tours of Waikiki, Kapiolani Park, Diamond Head, historic Honolulu, Kailua (pictured, right) and Lanikai.

Heard of Segways, but never ridden one? Every tour begins with a 20- to 30-minute orientation course. With no special skills, we found riding one immensely easy. The self-balancing personal transports zipped us along, and were friendly to both pedestrians and the environment, running along at 2 mph on about a dime’s worth of power an hour.

Each tour comes with a guide, usually born and raised in Hawaii. It may turn out to be the coolest thing you do on Oahu. Click here for more!

[Segway of Hawaii has two locations on Oahu: Hilton Hawaiian Village, 2005 Kalia Road, Waikiki (808) 941-3151; Kailua Beach Center, 130 Kailua Road, Kailua (808) 262-5511). Find them on the web at www.segwayofhawaii.com ]
