Take a fun ride on a Segway through 7 miles of gorgeous parkland, following trails and roads as your guide shows you the hidden treasures of Golden Gate Park. Hear how the park has changed from bleak sand dunes into lush, landscaped grassland. Explore the east end, learn fascinating trivia, and take home memories to last a lifetime!

Activity Highlights

  • Personal attention with a maximum of 10 people per tour
  • Japanese Tea Garden, Music Concourse, Memorial Grove, and much more
  • Hidden treasures, such as the Shakespeare Garden and Fern Grotto
  • Full narration of the park's development, landmarks, and trivia

This beautifully landscaped inner city park is far too big to see on foot, so give your legs a rest and join us on a Segway tour of the east end. Benefit from better mobility and the fun of riding park trails on these eco-friendly electric vehicles!

Golden Gate Park covers over 1,000 acres and is the fifth most visited park in the country. It's designed a bit like Central Park in New York, though it's bigger, and began its life back in the 19th Century.

We'll take you around some of the best-known sites, such as the Music Concourse, the California Academy of Sciences, the de Young Museum, the Japanese Tea Garden, the Conservatory of Flowers and many more. You'll learn all about the history of the park as we ride, through an earbud radio connection that makes sure you don't miss any of the fascinating details!

We'll also show you some of the hidden treasures in the park, including the Shakespeare Garden, the Lily Pond, the Fern Grove and Prayerbook Cross. Add the Rose, Rhododendron, and Dahlia Gardens, a Redwood Grove, the pioneer log cabin, the Carousel and Sharon Art Studio, the Lawn Bowling Courts and many more sights and we're sure you'll remember this tour for the rest of your life!
