This was probably the most exciting part of my Madrid trip!
Ther first 10 mins of the tour were spent on understanding how to use the Segway (was my first time) and balancing. While I was initially apprehensive, you get the hang of it pretty soon and learn to shift your weight intuitively.
We did the 1.5 hour tour which felt too short for how much fun we actually had! There is an option to either do the historical tour through the city OR the Retiro park tour. I would highly recommend the Retiro Park since you can drive the Segway freely without worrying about the traffic and also get great coverage of the massive park. Our tour guide was super friendly and the tour was largely focused on enjoying the sites on the Segway rather than listening to what the tour guide is saying.
I would highly recommend doing this!
