Excellent - This truly is a fun experience. We were hesitant at first but ended up enjoying. Tour takes you through several districts and has fun information. The tour system recommended a restaurant we decided to get a meal and it was great. Advice..if you have 2 people who are not tiny don’t get the smallest car…

Smithchops on Tour in San Diego - We booked this GoCar tour for our day trip stop to San Diego from our Cruise ship ... what a fabulous experience from start to finish - arrived at the depot a little early and looked after by the 2 guys really well ... arrived, sorted the paperwork and inducted via a H&S video, then given a really good summary of the tour on the map on the wall including expected detours and what to do ... excellent :-) Then we were escorted to our vehicle and everything explained on how to operate, navigate and how to call if any issues - the GoCar was equipped with an iPad GPS Sat Nav and audio guidance including interesting information on the various stops ... Away we went following the guidance and were taken through all the key areas of San Diego - it wasn't till the end that we realised exactly what we covered and it was everything - all the pre-advised potential detours were accurate and easy to react to given the advice from the guys in the depot Would we recommend this ... "hell yeah", the guys were fabulous at the start and finish, the tour was fab and so much fun - we opted to pay extra for a video of the trip, and upon arrival back home saw this wasn't fully downloaded, so we emailed them, and with minutes the refund was processed ...wow :-) 6 stars out of 5 all day long
