Hello Everyone!

Colina Flora www.colinaflora.com (that small, yet lovely, eco-guesthouse set in the heart of the Sintra Natural Park, with ocean views, and only minutes to beaches has spruced up it´s walking holdiday  package with the additon of an  exciting 3 hour guided  tour of the Serra da Sintra on Segways.  Silencetours www.silencetours.pt are the organizers.  These tours add a special adrenaline rush to Colina Flora´s eco-style vacations.  Touring the country side on Segways is a funfilled, exciting experience and is eco-friendly, since the vehicles are electric and  virtually soundless.

Segways are two wheeled, self-balancing electric veheicles.  The user stands on a platform and controls the Segway movement by shifting her/his weight.  Segways can go up to  20 km/hour.  In Portugal various police forces employ them for patroling.
