(Orlando Sentinel) – More Disney visitors soon will be scooting around Epcot on Segway transporters in the morning before the park gate opens to the general public. For a couple of years, Walt Disney World has given Epcot visitors two options to ride Segways – the two-wheeled, electric scooters that people stand on as they ride. The big ride is a two-hour spin, including an hour of training indoors and an hour-long guided tour of Epcot's World Showcase. That tour, which costs $80 a person, proved popular enough that Disney is adding a second, starting Friday. Disney also offers a $45 one-hour version that's all indoors, during midday. To accommodate the additional Segway traffic, Disney has built a new, larger indoor riding and training area, in the Innoventions West building. It replaces the old Segway station at Club Cool.
This is a cool idea. I got to ride one before park opening in Frontierland at the Magic Kingdom once and it was a really unique experience.
