Great city tour option

Published on Oct, 2024

Great customer service. The tour was wonderful. It is guided but you go at your own pace. The goCar was easy to drive and the course was well planned.

Great fun!

Published on Oct, 2024

Fabulous experience! We had booked scooters but were offered to change to Go Cars if we wanted with no extra cost. We took them up on this and were so glad we did! Great GPS instructions and super helpful person who can be called at any time during the tour. Thoroughly enjoyed!

Scooter Excitement!!!

Published on Sep, 2024

Awesome tour! Lots of fun and excitement on the scooters with our 19 and 20 year olds….a great family memory and lots of laughs (once we figured out how to ride!)

Published on Jun, 2024

I was very happy with the staff, as short staffed as they were, they were very patient with our over large group. Not only were they patient, but they were all very friendly and helpful. On top of all that, we had a great time with the whole GoCar experience. Thank you
