Enjoy a memorable early morning adventure with this Early Bird Segway voucher for two at Leeds Castle in Kent. Offering the chance to explore before the general public arrives, it’s a fantastic way to discover the castle’s beautiful grounds together. Your 30–35-minute guided tour starts at around 9:30am, taking you across the stunning 500-acre estate before the gates open. Glide along fields and trails on an off-road Segway, discovering famous sights such as Lady Baillie’s Garden, the aviary, Maiden’s Tower, Great Water and the iconic moat. Before setting off, you will each receive a one-to-one training session to help you get comfortable with your Segway and its controls. Then, follow your guide on a scenic group tour, complete with fascinating commentary about the history of Leeds Castle and its grounds. Available on selected midweek and weekend dates, this is a wonderful opportunity to experience one of Kent’s most beautiful historic estates from a different perspective. This voucher is valid for two people and includes the guided Segway tour and training sessions for both participants.
