I always thought these were cheesy, but then I tried them. It's like driving a go cart or motorcycle. The narration was excellent. I loved the versatility of being able to stop where and when we wanted too. I will definitely do these again.
I took my family out on 2 of these little cars. Wife found it so easy to drive. Simply rev and go. Best way to see the city then you can go back to what you liked. Saved a lot of time and really loved it
We were so excited and looking forward to this . Unfortunately it was a very disappointing and frustrating experience. Do to the fact that Stockton street was closed, and we had to keep going straight ahead and not as the GPS was indicating, it stop giving any sort of direction. Since we were not familiar with the streets, we were unable to get out of the city and were stuck in traffic the whole time. The frustration and tension was such that we ended up returning the GoCar way before our two hours were over. We left very disappointed.
Great concept for a tour. We had perfect weather, perfect views, and a perfect time. Viator rocks!!
Love the Go Cars, great way to get around the city
Super Cool way to see the city sights
Make sure you have an extra layer of clothing. It gets cold. Otherwise, a great way to see the city.
