Tsitsikamma segway tour: village streets and forest paths
A Tsitsikamma segway tour starts in Stormsriver Village, not at the Storms River Mouth rest camp, and it stays on the inland side of the park. The guide leads you on two-wheeled, self-balancing scooters through the village and into pine plantation and indigenous forest. The route does not go to the suspension bridge at the coast.
Both versions begin with a briefing and a practice course, so first-timers can practise before the route starts. The briefing takes 15 to 20 minutes and counts toward the total time.
Tsitsikamma segway tour: 1 or 2 hours
The 1 hour ride stays close to the village, while the 2 hour ride goes deeper into the forest.

A one hour ride and a two hour ride, both with a guide and a segway, starting in Stormsriver Village.
The 1 hour segway ride
The shorter booking costs $31.10 per person. It covers the briefing, the practice course and a loop through the village and the nearby trees. Guide, segway and bottled water are included. Scheduled starts are on the hour between 07:00 and 17:00, so you can pick a slot that fits around a morning at the coast or a kayak trip. It suits families, couples and anyone who wants to try a segway without committing half a day.
The 2 hour ride deeper into the forest
The longer booking costs $52.87 per person and goes further into the woods before coming back to the village. Start times are 09:00 and 14:00, and this ride is not offered during school breaks. Guide, segway and bottled water are included. Choose it if you want more time among the trees. The extra $21.77 buys an additional hour of total tour time.
Departures at 06:00, 18:00 and 19:00 are village rides only, without forest access, so book a daytime slot for the woodland route. Booking ahead is required.
Who can ride
Riders must be at least 6 years old and 1.1 m tall. The weight range is approximately 45 kg to 125 kg including luggage. Pregnancy is not permitted. You stand for the whole ride, so you should be comfortable on your feet for at least 2 hours and able to shift your weight slightly and bend your knees. No experience or certificate is needed.
What to wear and weather
Wear comfortable shoes without high heels, and bring a warm jacket on cool days. Camera, sunglasses and sun protection are worth having. The tours are designed for all-weather operation, with rain jackets provided, though wet surfaces can be slippery and routes can change for safety. The weather guide shows what each season feels like, and the best time to visit page helps you place the ride in your trip.
Fitting the ride into your Tsitsikamma days
Stormsriver Village is a short drive from the Storms River Mouth turn-off, which makes the segway a good half-day add-on. Combine it with the canopy tour in the same village, or with the suspension bridge walk on another day. The arrival guide explains the roads. Use the meeting point on your booking confirmation, as published street addresses differ.
