The Official Segway® Tour in Panama is a must do during your stay. Our team provides you with a different and fun way to experience the highlights of Panama City, its History and Natural areas using our eco-friendly Personal Transporter. This is the most fun you can have while standing up. We teach you how to stand & ride our New 2013 Segway’s X2 and review all safety issues.

Join us for a 90 minutes ride, a combination of panoramic-historic tour, on Panama City´s new Coast-line and the Colonial City and get to know one of our World Heritage Monuments (Old town).

Panama Marine Adventures connects the modern seafront city to the squares of the old city. You will be able to enjoy a panoramic of the impressive skyline, move through sidewalks and the brick streets of the historical monuments in just 90 minutes.

Segway PT
The Segway PT (abbreviation for Personal Transporter) is a two-wheeled, self-balancing, battery-powered electric vehicle invented in the United States in 2001. It is produced by Segway Inc. of New Hampshire, USA.

The Segway PT is the first auto-balanced transportation device. Computers and motors in the base of the device keep the Segway PT upright when powered on with balancing enabled. A user commands the Segway to go forward by shifting their weight forward on the platform, and backward by shifting their weight backward. The Segway detects, as it balances, the change in its center of mass, and first establishes and then maintains a corresponding speed, forward or backward. Gyroscopic sensors and fluid-based leveling sensors detect the weight shift. To turn, the user presses the handlebar to the left or the right. The PTs are driven by electric motors and can go up to 12.5 miles per hour that can be controlled and programed electronically.
