  • Near public transportation
  • On the day of rental, a $500 security deposit will be held on the customer’s credit card. If a CDW or SLI insurance plan is selected, a $300 security deposit will be held. The security deposit is released when the GoCar is returned.
  • Absolutely not! If there is a San Francisco sight you wish to see but is not yet included on the tour, just use the map provided to navigate your own way through the city streets. You can even put a CD in the stereo and enjoy music along the way!
  • Pickup location must be chosen at time of booking. This is the location where your GoCar will be reserved

  • All renters must be able to read, understand and sign a liability release and waiver form (standard participant agreement)
  • Foreign language options are available in French, Spanish, Italian and German
  • Most travelers can participate
  • Up to 35-mph. Note that drivers in San Francisco do not typically drive fast, therefore an average speed of 30-mph or less can be expected while driving.
  • Yes, you set your own pace. The car always knows where you are and you can park anywhere you want (motorcycle parking or car parking) for as long as you want, and as soon as you start to drive again, the car will begin to talk!

  • Vehicles:
  • Are controlled with a motorcycle-style handle, throttle, and hand brakes. The 3-wheeled cars seat two and have a lockable trunk for your things. Their small size makes parking a breeze, and in San Francisco - a major bonus!

Great adventure to see the sights!

Mary_C, Aug 2024
The Tour guide was thorough and very helpful and informative. The vehicle does have a very limited turning radius, so beware. You may have to get out and push the car to park.

Great Experience

MICHAEL_B, Apr 2022
It was a great experience. We had the full-day package. The check-in was smooth. Training video (@ 4-minutes) was clear. The guided tour (directional pad and voice directions and descriptions of different sites) was very good - it worked well, was informational and entertaining. The vehicle operated well and bringing in for a refill on gas went smoothly as well. The only surprise (for me) was the amount of pressure needed for the throttle and the loudness of the engine, but after 5-minutes, we were used to it, so no issues at all. We were able to see all of SF in a fun way.

No te lo pierdas
