This is the signature Segway experience in Reunion Island: €119 per person for 3 hours of all-terrain Segway riding (a Mobilboard model with big cleated tyres) through the Étang-Salé dry forest, the island's only preserved dry forest. The outing is rated 4.9/5 from 73 verified Viator reviews, making it the most reviewed and best-rated package in my selection.
The programme: getting to grips with the Segway on flat ground (a 15-20 minute technical briefing), then crossing black sand dunes, dry savanna, wild beaches, a pond and ocean viewpoints, weaving between screw pines, chocas, tamarind trees and eucalyptus. The outing ends with a sunset cocktail on the shore, a chance to unwind after the ride. It's the only listing in my selection to include the cocktail.
Who it's for: travellers looking for an original, complete sunset activity (guaranteed Instagram material), couples and groups of friends aged 14+ who want to try Segway riding out in nature rather than in town, travellers based on the west or south-west coast (Étang-Salé is 30 minutes from Saint-Pierre, 45 minutes from Saint-Gilles). Who it's not for: under 14s, people with balance issues or neurological conditions, and anyone with dust or pollen allergies (the dry forest can be dusty).
Viator price: €119 per person. Rated 4.9/5 from 73 reviews (individual feedback is accessible directly on the Viator listing, with free cancellation up to 24h before). Included: local guide, all-terrain Mobilboard Segway, helmet, briefing, final cocktail. Not included: transport to the meeting point (you'll need a hire car). Several departures a day depending on bookings.
