Meeting point

The starting location for the San Francisco Golden Gate Park Segway tour is in the paved area directly behind the Sprekels Temple of Music (Bandshell) in the Golden Gate Park Music Concourse area. If you are trying to find us using GPS the entrance to the Japanese Tea Garden is across the street from the training lot at 7 Hagiwara Tea Garden Drive, San Francisco, CA 94118. Parking spaces are not available at the guest training location. The Segway training area is not visible until you are behind the Bandshell. On some Golden Gate Park special event days the training area will be moved to the adjacent Tour Bus Parking Lot. Paid underground garage parking is available at the Music Concourse Garage located between the De Young Museum and the California Academy of Science. We do not reimburse parking costs. Free on-street parking is available on adjacent streets. The street parking fills rapidly on weekends. We suggest taking the Muni public transit to the park.

We had a wonderful time! It was the first time for everyone in our party of five. Johannes was absolutely great as our tour leader. He was personable, funny, knowledgeable and informative. I’ve lived in San Francisco all my life - just a few blocks from Golden Gate Park actually! But I’ve never seen as much of the park or learned so much about it as on our Segway tour. We felt safe at all times, from the moment we stepped on for our short personalized training to going up and down the myriad of trails and pathways throughout the park. Thanks also to Zoe who rode with us. You all were great!

We were trained how to handle the Segways before we headed into the park on the tour. This training made me much more comfortable on the Segway. Our tour guide, Jeff, was great. He really knew the history of the park and a lot of the flora and fauna within the park. My brother and I had a great time. Great way to see a lot of the park in a short amount of time. Excellent tour - Highly recommend this tour company.

Very knowledgeable in many areas - not only the plants, the various different gardens, and the museums but also the history of Golden Gate Park and the various SF characters who contributed to the park. Our guide (Jase) was wonderfully patient and had a great sense of humor.
