We had a fantastic time on the GoCar tour! Easy to navigate and flexibility to do your own thing! So much better than with a group.

My sister bought the deal from Groupon and it took a long time to get us going. It took over an hour from the time we got there to the time we rolled out with the car. I don’t know if it was Groupon or GoCar but I was very frustrated. They couldn’t find her reservation so she was on the phone with Groupon and when we finally got the reservation straightened up, she said she paid 3 times the amount for 2 gas powered 2 seaters. She asked GoCars if we could have a 4 seater instead of 2-2seater and they didn’t even entertain her request. The 2 seaters were fun but it was hard to get out off, I’m 72 and since these cars have no reverse feature, I have to wait for my wife, sister and her boyfriend to push the car to get out of a parking lot. If we stopped to see a sight, I had a tough time getting out of the car. I wished GoCar would have given us a 4 seater instead. The tour itself was fun once we got going. We got close to so many historical places and fun places you could not in a regular car. We got to stop anywhere safe and with parking. Overall, it was worth the tour. The people at the office made sure we understood how these cars drove and made us feel safe. It was so much fun and I would recommend doing this at least once. I just have one request to Steph who helped us get the car, there were 4 of us, I know you helped us a great deal, please work with the customers if they need help. The 4 seater would have been the best vehicle and more fun for us if you gave us one, I think my sister for what she paid covered the cost of the 4 seater anyway. The experience would have been totally great if all 4 of us were all in the same car. Please work with the customers who may not have the choices buying on Groupon. Remember, she paid for 3 gas powered 2 seaters and we only used 2.
Fun open go cart experience. Had plenty of time to see what we want. Dress properly and have fun. We love the on screen GPS.
Omg this was so much fun, definitely the highlight of the entire trip! My friend and I had an absolute blast. The vehicle took a minute to get the hang of, but we got used to it quickly. The two-seater was a little snug, but we made it work just fine. The GPS system guides you through pre-set locations, and the voice commentary was both fun and informative. What’s great is you can also go off the path if you want and just pick it back up later with no problem. We booked the 4-hour tour thinking it would be plenty of time, but we didn't end up getting to everything wanted to see. So either plan to keep cruising non-stop or consider booking a longer option. 10/10 would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for a unique and exciting way to see the city!
Really great activity to do. Check in was easy. Great directions on how the vehicle works. We enjoyed our time driving around. Lots of information was shared. Definitely touristy, but well worth it. Would recommend!
This was so much fun! My daughter and I had a blast. The best way to see the city! We had plenty of time to stop and take several pictures and for my daughter to make a TikTok in front of the painted ladies. And the Groupon helped tremendously.
I found GoCar by accident while searching things to do in San Francisco…. And so glad I did! We had already spent time going over the Golden Gate Bridge on e-bikes yesterday, but this was a total tour of the city and a FUN way to get around. The iPad (mounted in the car) gave us a narrated tour with turn-by-turn instructions. Worth every penny.
These were great fun and such a good way to see the city. We also saw things we wouldn’t have seen on a bus or by foot. Would highly recommend and I think the price is fair given the cost of a hop on hop off bus ticket.
Super fun and great way to experience San Fran with a self guided tour at your own pace adventure. GPS technology allows for the cart to take you all over San Francisco while educating you on sights you see along the way. This is an interactive experience that allows you to engage in a scavenger hunt of sorts for a $200 gift certificate if you complete all challenges. They do state that you will be fined for wear and tear on the vehicle if you go over certain speeds etc. they do not have the ability to track locations on any of the cars. Make sure to stay on the path. It is easy to get confused on some routes. Great time for all ages.
Very fun! Parks were beautiful and I got a kick out of seeing the houses featured in’Full House’. The people on the street got a smile out of seeing the gocart.
It Was an Amazing time … Great Views , Nice people on the start. Easy to drive with a wonderful expereance . You have to do this to explore san franscisco forget hop on hop of !
Once you figure out how to get in and out of it, it was a great tour. GPS mapping worked and told you exactly how to get around. Saw things in 3 hours that you would see in one tour. Had a great day and I’m 65 years old!
The tour was fantastic, definitely recommend going in a pair as the screen is on the right hand side and is much easier for the passenger to see in bright sun. The 'cars' are cosy and fun to drive, and it really is a great way to see the city. Good fun!
This was the funniest , entertaining 4 hours of our visit in San Francisco! loved every minute of it, and would do it again in a heartbeat! we got to see everything we wanted to do, and much more. the GPS is fantastic as it keeps you on track! just amazing and definitely worth every penny!. as a female driver driving down Lombard street was an experience, that said its an experience we shall never forget
We were I. San Francisco with our travel besties to celebrate a birthday and since this was my first non work related trip there,I searched for things to do for the 4 of us (all of us in our 60s, healthy) and this looked like fun so I booked us for the GoCars. It was a BLAST! And sooo much fun - it was my fav part of the trip (surprising considering the amazing food we enjoyed). Our husbands drove so we navigated when needed - the gps voice directions were terrific. If I have any helpful comment, pleeeease add a home button so it gets us right back from wherever we are (we had to stick to their routing carefully) and add a repeat button. Other than that, the best PHOTOS of the city from a different point of view - there might have been a few wooooooohoooo’s from me as we drove through scintillating San Fran! If your time and schedule permit, absolutely worthwhile!
We chose to pay the extra $50.00 for the electric Arcimoto scooter and we were SO HAPPY we did! A couple years ago my wife and I did an SF GoCar tour in their regular 150cc side by side scooter and had a good time. It did struggle a bit up hills and made lots of scooter noise and exhaust *cough*, but overall the novelty of a side by side scooter self guided tour was fun. Today a 4 hour tour in the Tesla of 3 wheeled motorbikes was 10x better! We legally didn't need helmets, could hear each other easily and loved the smooth quiet zippy power. At a stop light it's totally silent, you can hear comments like 'that's fire' and 'I like your car'. Visibility is great as you're sitting up at car level. The handling felt safe and stable too. We were out driving for the full 4 hours and still had only used 40% of the battery! It may cost a little more, but opt for the electric Arcimoto if you can. Go green when you GoCar! A great tour got even greater.
I found beautiful the Victorian houses known as Painted Ladies. I took a lot of photos and also of the square that is right in front of you. Nice place to spend a morning, take a walk.
