Memphis Segway Adventures, Memphis

The guides of Memphis Segway Adventures say on their website that they're always on the lookout for "little nooks and crannies. . . that even the locals don't know exist," which is convenient when you need to swiftly hide a bunch of Segways. Those spots might include quirky Arts District shops or fabulous 1950s architecture. As small groups glide through the city on easy-to-ride Segways, they also weave through the city's musical, and cultural past with visits to iconic spots such as Sun Studio, Vance Park, and the Lorraine Motel, where Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated.
