About Segway Athens

Segway Athens offers guided Segway tours through the historic sites of Athens, including the Acropolis, Plaka, and the Ancient Agora. Safety training and equipment management are critical components of their operation.

Founder Nikos Konstantinou had a vision to scale from 2 to 10 daily tours, but the administrative burden of safety waivers, equipment tracking, and customer communication seemed insurmountable.

The Scaling Problem

Equipment tracking was manual and error-prone
Maintenance issues & downtime

No system to track which Segway needed service or was assigned to which tour.

Safety waivers were paper-based
30 minutes wasted per tour

Guides spent the first half hour of each tour collecting signatures.

Scaling required proportional admin increase
Could't afford to grow

2 tours/day needed 1 admin person. 10 tours would need 5 — impossible.

Last-minute cancellations hurt revenue
25% cancellation rate

No reminder system meant customers often forgot and didn't show up.

“We went from 2 tours to 10 tours a day without adding any admin staff. The digital waivers alone save us hours every week. But the real game-changer was being able to scale without the scaling headaches. We just grew. The system handled the rest.”
