Full description
Take a GPS-guided tour in the Storytelling Car® and see for yourself why TIME Magazine called GoCar "The Most Amazing Invention of the Year!" Let GoCar be your guide through an exciting loop of San Diego. GoCar, The Cure for the Common Tour®, lets you experience the beauty of San Diego and visit places tour busses cannot go – all at your own pace! Fold up your map, put away the guidebook and let the GoCar show you what most visitors never see! Zip around in a cute, yellow Storytelling GoCar as it takes you on your own GPS-guided tour. The GoCar is easy and fun to drive. Since it is GPS-guided, the car knows where you are – even if you don’t. With you in the driver’s seat, it not only tells you where to turn, it tells the stories that bring the city to life. Let the car direct you, or for those more adventurous, blaze your own trail! Above is only a suggested route. Your tour’s length may vary due to circumstances such as departure time and location, traffic and your itinerary. If you do take additional rental time, this will be billed in 15-minute increments at our retail rates. You may visit all or some of the tour’s highlights. If you are unsure of which tour to book, just book according to the amount of time you think you would like to spend. We can customize a tour especially for you, with the sights you want to include, when you come into our shop. PRICING IS PER VEHICLE NOT PER PERSON. EACH VEHICLE SEATS 2 PEOPLE.

It's a "must do" while visiting San Diego. 1hr is not enough, definitely recommend atleast 2 hours. So much to see, so little time. Excitingly Adventurous and entertainingly educational even for my 12 yrs old. GYG staff was very helpful during chat assistance. Staff at GO CARS are awesome!!!

I booked this for my birthday weekend. This is the first time doing the go cart. We enjoyed the experience very much. We got lost and it was somewhat stressful however fun. We got back a few minutes late and we were not charged, the propriaters were amazing and did not charge us extra fines. A great experience. I will definately participate in this experience.

So much fun driving around SD in a 3 wheeled motorcycle. The historical knowledge you learn along the way was interesting too. Bring sunscreen because you are in the sun the whole time. The address on is wrong, the actual address is 3918 Mason St in Old Town, San Diego.
