The Canal City Segway Tour offers a balanced look at Sturgeon Bay by following a route defined by the canal and working harbor. Guests glide across the Steel Bridge and travel through both sides of the city, experiencing the contrast between waterfront industry, historic neighborhoods, and everyday downtown life.

Designed to feel steady and approachable, the tour connects these areas into a clear, cohesive experience that shows how the canal continues to shape the city today.
This tour is often chosen by guests who enjoy history, waterfront settings, and seeing how a working harbor town fits together.
