Introduction
Zip around San Francisco in a little yellow GoCar for a sightseeing adventure on your own terms. The GoCar is a two-seater, GPS-guided storytelling car that lets you become your own tour guide. Hop in, and as you drive the streets of the city, the GoCar’s GPS system narrates fun facts and directions to iconic sights – taking you to see places like Fisherman’s Wharf, the Marina, Golden Gate Bridge overlooks, and through neighborhoods like Chinatown and North Beach. You can stop whenever you like, park the tiny car easily to take photos, and then continue the route or even detour as you please (the GPS adjusts). It’s a playful, novel way to explore the city, giving you the freedom of a self-drive adventure with the guidance of an audio tour.
What To Expect
- Pick up your GoCar at one of two convenient locations: at Union Square or on Beach Street near Fisherman’s Wharf.
- GoCars hold a maximum of 2 people. Prices are per GoCar - not per person. Up to 2 people can fit in this roofless, 3-wheeled car that reaches speeds of 35 miles per hour.
- Strap on your helmet, climb into the tiny car, and take off on your city adventure.
- Listen for directions that are clear and informative, telling you where to go and providing commentary about the historical and cultural significance of your destinations.
- Follow the designated route or make up your own tour based on your interests like film, art, or nature.
- Explore the city at your own pace, stopping to spend more time at places that interest you.
- Landmarks on the preloaded tour include over 50 points of interest like Ocean Beach, Golden Gate Park, Fort Point, Crissy Field, Lombard Street, and the Palace of Fine Arts.
Not To Be Missed
