Segway Tours

Nelson Mandela Bay Tourism welcomes the addition of Segway Beachfront Tours and Black Impala Tshisa Nyama to increase the variety of offerings to be launched in the destination ahead of the summer holiday season.

A Segway is an electric, noise free, eco-friendly, self-balancing scooter and incredibly fun and easy to ride. The initiative will offer visitors and locals a fun excursion along the beachfront promenade for all ages to enjoy.

“Tourism is one of the industries with the greatest contribution to the GDP of our country and furthermore stimulates and sustains the contribution to our local economy. With each new attraction or activity comes employment opportunity. For each permanent job opportunity there are also indirect benefits which filter through to the transport, agriculture and other sectors.” confirmed Economic Development, Agriculture and Tourism Councillor Whitfield.

A modern and stylish Tsisha Nyama, called Black Impala has opened in Deal Party to boost the local cultural cuisine offerings. Nelson Mandela Bay Tourism will have this added to the list of authentic and new experiences on offer in the Bay.
