Never heard of the Segway before?

The Segway is a quite revolutionary and trendy electric kind of transportation often used for guided tours, to get around the city, by security agents or for advertising displays.

You want to tame the machine? Just slightly tilt the body forward to move forward and backward to go backward, left or right to turn in one or the other direction. The Segway is a very responsive vehicle, so avoid sudden movements.

It is an eco-friendly vehicle which produces very little noise and go up to 20 km/h with a battery autonomy of approximately 8 hours (very fun to drive). The mean of transportation of the future? Time will tell, but for now you must try this during your stay in Mauritius.

Heritage Resorts is impatient to give you a good understanding of the Domaine de Bel Ombre for you to fully enjoy the facilities and activities available to you.
