Segway Gliding Tour in Lion Park - Johannesburg South Africa

Forget using four wheels to get round the lion park when two are way more fun. Segways! You’ve seen those two-wheel self-balancing personal transportation machines on the Kulula “Top Gun” ad, or in random American movies. But at the Lion Park in the backyard of Jozi? Segway now offers “gliding tours” – a 1.5 hour guided adventure – at venues including Sun City, Spier Wine Estate, and the Lion Park. Scooting along sand roads between small herds of blesbok and past friendly giraffes is a fun-filled way to spend a Saturday morning or introduce out-of-town friends to the Johannesburg outdoors. The tour includes a learners’ circuit to help you get the hang of steering and controlling speed on your Segway, followed by an effortless “glide” through the herbivore enclosure, and finally some high speed pursuits along the paths. The tour also includes access to the lion enclosure – safely enclosed in your car! – and a cuddle with a lion cub to complete a morning on the “wild side” of Jozi
