    I took my mom on the Downtown tour for Mother's Day. The Segway was really easy to learn for all levels. The guides/employees were very thorough in making sure you practiced different maneuvers & safety before going out of the building. We practiced with cones; etc. Our guide Kasey had a great attitude & was knowledgeable in providing historical details. Highly recommend!

    Great experience on the evening tour. Easy to learn, the guide was patient with us! Only one other couple on the tour, it felt personalized for us. Definitely recommend!

    Picture of me on the tour on June 29th. Good photo place at the Point, taken by Sarawesome who is a guide on the tour.

    I took the new adventure tour which is a 4 hour tour that starts at their facility in Station Square, goes to the Heinz History Museum (30 minute stop), then onto the Aviary (another 30 minute stop) and then a stop for Ice Balls (5 minutes) and then at the Point (30 minutes between lunch and photos at the point) before heading back. You have to arrive 30 minutes in advance and you do get to zip around their little indoor test track so consider that bonus time on the segway. I went on an Amazon Local half price deal (for $50) which made this a five star deal, despite having to pay $5 for taxes at checkin. If this was full price, I would rank it 4 star. They could make it better by: 1) Increasing the amount of time at Heinz History Museum 2) Leaving the Aviary stop the same (I personally think its too long, but some people may like that place more than me) 3) Choosing a nicer place to break for a longer lunch, maybe in a different order So basically increasing the length of the tour a bit so you end up in Station Square a little bit later. It starts at 9:30 and finishes at 2, I think if they started at 10:30 and ended at 4pm it would be better. They do bill this adventure tour NOT as a sightseeing tour as they don't really tell you about the sights, you just zip around. And for that it's a good tour, you do get a lot of quality time on the segway. I also enjoyed it enough that even as a local I'd like to come back and do their nighttime tour to see the sights at night on the tour. In addition, Sarawesome (her self given title :)) is a good tour guide and emailed some tips and the itinerary prior to the tour. Overall I'd recommend it -- especially if you can get it at a discount or they tweak the itinerary some. And for Arrested Development fans, yes, you may feel a little like Gob but it's still a lot of fine and very easy to ride the new Segway I2s that Segway in Paradise uses. Finally, it is a LOT of standing for most of the four hours, so while its not that grueling you will probably be a little bit tired at the end of the tour.

    Our guide, Anthony.

    Anthony, our tour guide, did a great job with our group of 5. We really enjoyed the downtown tour. The first 30-45 minutes is training on the Segway. Then, we zipped all over town past noteworthy buildings, the culture district, the pirates stadium, through Point Park, and back to the Station. We felt safe and had a blast!

We left feeling a newfound respect and appreciation for Pittsburgh after taking it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

This is absolutely a treat for anyone with roots here or a fascination with industry and manufacturing. The highlights: Most tours are guided by former steelworkers and people with a first-hand involvement in the steel industry. You get a great overview of the plant, which was the center of life for this community and the lifeblood of the region for more than a century. Our tour placed a heavy emphasis on the engineering and technology of steelmaking, so if that's your thing, it's Christmas. And it's a minor miracle that these two blast furnaces have been preserved. I would suggest that they augment the tours with photos or videos that might help bring these hulking structures to life a bit more, and maybe insert some specific stories about immigrants and working families, union battles, and other colorful bits about Homestead. Sure, a windfall of donor support and a visitor center would go a long way to improving things on that score, but a little shift in emphasis could be done on a budget. Either way, Rivers of Steel is hugely important for preserving the region's steel heritage, and their efforts to extend that support to the community are vital.
