Riverfront Segway Tour
Admit it, you’ve always wondered what it’s like to ride one of those quirky, kinda-geeky, two-wheeled, self-balancing devices. Well, thousands of visitors discover just how fun a Segway tour can be while exploring the best of Cincinnati’s beautiful riverfront parks. Start with a leisurely glide through the central business district and then on to Bicentennial Commons, Sawyer Point & Yeatman’s Cove and the Serpentine Wall, the stunning Theodore M. Berry International Freedom Park, and capped off with an exhilarating, scenic ride across the Ohio on the Purple People Bridge to NKY's Newport on the Levee and back.
Guided tours are approximately 2 hours with 15-20 minutes of training and a 90-minute glide.
Cincy Red Bikes
Most visitors are surprised to discover how compact and convenient it is to get around Northern Kentucky and downtown Cincinnati, especially given they’re in two states separated by one of America’s grand rivers. And that’s just one of the beauties that makes Cincy Red Bike – a public bicycle sharing system with 50 stations and 385 bikes – an ideal way to tour either or both sides of the river.
The system opened to the public in September 2014 with 30 stations but its immediate popularity quickly demanded expansion to 50 stations, including 11 now in Northern Kentucky. Simply locate a station, purchase a pass, grab a bike and off you go. All Red Bike Passes (24-hour passes are available) include unlimited 60-minute trips within the lifetime of your pass – and since your timer resets every time you dock a Red Bike, you can enjoy just a short Red Bike ride, a series of rides, or ride all day long!
