Segway Tours in Waikiki. Credit: Smart Destinations.<\/p><\/div>\n

By Maria Mora<\/em><\/p>\n

Now that Lost<\/a> has ended, I\u2019m guessing fans might just take a \u00a0trip to Hawaii<\/a> to see the gorgeous landscapes that made up the mystical fictional island, first hand. It\u2019s definitely on my<\/em> bucket list. Nearby,\u00a0Segway of Hawaii<\/a> recently opened a new location at the\u00a0Aloha Tower Marketplace<\/a>, giving tours around the island on those sleek new personal transporters. <\/p>\n

The 90-minute tour hits someof Honolulu<\/strong>\u2019s most famous views, including\u00a0Ala Moana Beach Park<\/strong>,Diamond Head<\/strong> and\u00a0Kaka\u2019ako Park<\/strong>\u2014home of the\u00a0Ehime Maru Memorial<\/strong>. Speaking of mystical islands, the tour also visits\u00a0Magic Island<\/strong>, an undeveloped peninsula park favored by locals.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve never been on a Segway, but the tour company\u2019s website has assured me that I can figure out how it works in about 20 minutes. By law, riders must wear helmets. The tour is for adults only, but kids ages 14 and up can come along if accompanied by an adult.<\/p>\n

After the tour, I want to stop by Kabuto for some\u00a0authentic Japanese food. (If you\u2019ve never tried real udon noodles, you\u2019re missing some salty goodness.)<\/p>\n
