Jeff,

I've recently had several guests on our tour that had taken City Segway Tours around the country and the world. And the funny thing was, that ALL of them said that our tour had much better training and the tour experience was much more interesting. Enough said.

The less said by a guide during a tour allows the tour company to hire people who don't have to learn anything about the area, and just do a little pointing. They can hire 'cheap' college-type' people.

If you drank alcoholic beverages (moonshine) with your guests, and they got back on a Segway, I'll be the first to say that I'm glad you're no longer in the tour business. That was just plain stupitity. I think that everyone here will agree. If you also smoked the local Thai Weed on the tour, no doubt they would have loved it too...
