The two RV Gypsies booked
SegCity's ULTIMATE downtown San Antonio and Riverwalk Experience, which
covered everything from the Theater District to Main Plaza, and Hemisfair
Park, plus a secluded part of the Riverwalk into the King William District
- a GORGEOUS neighborhood dating back to the 1850s, and of course by
the Alamo.
This was a 2.5 hour tour, and the guide, Alex, even gave
the two RV Gypsies some free-wheeling time to really have a blast. SegCity
also has other tours of various lengths. Alex gave Karen and Lee each
a small bottle of water for the trip, and she took a lot of pictures
of the two RV Gypsies as they rode along. The two RV Gypsies were the
only two people on the tour on this date. |

Alex was a great guide. She knew so much
about San Antonio's history, and the two RV Gypsies liked HER personality.
Only complaints: too much stopping to cross streets, and Alex insisted
that they could not get on or off their Segway unless she was holding
it, even though it was the 7th time the two RV Gypsies rode a Segway
(and not their last). But they highly recommend the tour and Alex. The
small bottle of water was a bonus, and the biggest bonus of all was
that Alex took pictures all during the tour, without charging extra
for the photos. |

let the two RV Gypsies ride around on their own and they zoomed as fast
as the Segways would let them. Alex took pictures while the two RV Gypsies
had a blast free-wheeling. |
