November 2025 marks an exciting milestone — 19 years since Segway on Q first rolled into action! Since launching in 2006, Segway on Q has become one of the most distinctive and long-running Queenstown tourism experiences, giving visitors a fun, easy, and eco-friendly way to explore this spectacular alpine resort town.

Familiar Sight in Queenstown

Segway tour in Queenstown

Founder and operator Kiwi Kev started Segway on Q with a simple idea: to offer guided Segway tours in Queenstown that combine sightseeing, fresh air, and smiles. Back then, Segways were still a new concept, turning heads wherever they went. Today, they’re a familiar sight gliding gracefully along the lakefront and through Queenstown Gardens — a must-try for anyone looking for fun things to do in Queenstown.

Unique Mix of Adventure and Ease

Over the years, thousands of travellers from around New Zealand and the world have joined Kevin and the team for a glide. What keeps people coming back is that unique mix of adventure and ease — no experience required, just a willingness to have fun. Whether it’s a family outing, a couple’s activity, or a corporate team adventure, Segway on Q makes it effortless to enjoy Queenstown’s sights while sharing a few laughs along the way.

Through changing tourism trends, technology upgrades, and even a global pandemic, the business has stayed true to its mission: to provide safe, memorable, and sustainable fun on two wheels. Many visitors still share stories about tours they took 10 or 15 years ago, proving that a little bit of joy on two wheels can leave a lasting impression

Sightseeing with a Twist

As the only dedicated Segway tour operator in Queenstown, Segway on Q takes pride in offering something that perfectly blends adventure and accessibility. It’s sightseeing with a twist — eco-friendly, entertaining, and unforgettable.
