The history of Washington, DC has long been tied to the history of the Freemasons. Designed by Major Pierre L'Enfant at the bequest of President George Washington, both Masons, you can see the history of the Masons on nearly every street. And now, thanks to Capital Segway, the only authorized Washington, DC Segway tour company, you can see the history of Freemasonry in Washington, DC up close on a Segway PT in the first and best Lost Symbol Masonic Tour.

Your intimate Masonic Lost Symbol tour lets you glide through America's capital city in a small group, covering in a few hours what would take you an entire day to walk, and, unlike in a bus, your Freemasonry Segway tour will bring you right next to some of the most famous Washington DC masonic landmarks. You'll also be led by an expert tour guide with an intimate knowledge of Freemasonry and the brotherhood's legacy in and around DC.

How do we differ from the other NON-AUTHORIZED Segway tours? Well that's an easy one... Come meet Steven Orr the General Manager of Capital Segway. He is a proud member of the Freemasons and has been one for over 15 years and is also a proud member of the Almas Shriners. Yes, the one mentioned in Dan Brown's book and yes he wears a Fez. Steven is a member of the World Famous Federal Lodge #1. The first head of his lodge was none other than James Hoban the illustrious Architect of the White House. Your tour leader is Scott Brown. He is not just another kid leading a boring tour. He is also a Master Mason and he is also a member of Federal Lodge #1! Oh yeah and one other thing.....the information that you will receive from this tour came from real Masons. We don't have a boring Wiki-Pedia style tour. Nothing is more flattering to us than copycat tours. Check out below of our first REAL review.....it's from October 2nd a full three weeks before that OTHER tour decided to follow us....

Our group of four had a fantastic time on the Segway tour of the Capitol. After a few minutes getting oriented on the use of this marvelous mode of transport, our guide Scott, treated us to a two plus hour adventure that was the highlight of our 16 day vacation that took us to Washington DC, NYC, & Boston. Although our wives were initially a little skeptical, but after having such a great time in DC, they were both hoping we could find Segway tours in Manhattan and Boston. Unfortunately, that was not to be. Our tour took us by the White House (where we coincidentally witnessed the arrival of the President on the south lawn in Marine One), the Capitol, Washington Monument, the Supreme Court, and numerous other points of interest. We even took a short side trip to the Masonic Temple described in Dan Brown's most recent novel, "The Lost Symbol". This is great way to get oriented for a stay in the Capitol, and if you have limited time, you can cover a lot of territory in a short amount of time. It was a real blast zipping along the streets and thoroughfares--my wife is still smiling from the experience. We expect to Segway again when we return to Washington or wherever we can find a tour available. Don't miss the Segway experience! It is great fun. PO -- Bakersfield, CA
