Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) is an optional form of insurance similar to rental car insurance that limits your liability in case of accident. It is non-refundable. If you opt to purchase the CDW your deposit for rented a GoCar is only USD$300.00 instead of USD$500.00
GoCar’s hold a maximum of 2 people. Prices are per GoCar - not per person.
Can you cross the Golden Gate Bridge? No, but the tour will navigate you to Fort Point. Here the bridge soars about 200-feet above your head. It is possible to gain pedestrian access to the bridge span from the car park at the bridge vantage point.
All renters must be able to read, understand and sign a liability release and waiver form (standard participant agreement)
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!
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!
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.
For the safety and comfort of passengers the maximum height is 6'4" (1.9m) and maximum combined weight of 500 lbs (226.8 kg) for two passengers
Passengers must be 4 years of age or older - and small children must safely fit into one of our DOT approved helmets. The GoCar is registered as a motorcycle - but a motorcycle license is not required to operate the vehicle.
Foreign language options are available in French, Spanish, Italian and German
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.
Driver must be 21 years or older to rent and must provide a major credit card and valid driver’s license at the time of check-in. A driver’s license must be in the customer’s physical possession (no photocopy). For foreign customer’s, an international license is not necessary.
What To Expect
Palace of Fine Arts Theatre
The Palace of Fine Arts in the Marina District of San Francisco, California, is a monumental structure originally constructed for the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition in order to exhibit works of art presented there. One of only a few surviving structures from the Exposition, it is still situated on its original site. In addition to hosting art exhibitions, it remains a popular attraction for tourists and locals.
Golden Gate Bridge
Certainly the most-photographed bridge in the world, the Golden Gate Bridge is synonymous with San Francisco. Drive up to the viewing area, or the foot of the bridge at Fort Point, to take pictures. You can take even better pictures at Baker Beach, a few minutes drive past the bridge!

4.00It was something to get use too..the size of the go cart and the length. If you are taller that 5'8" it not going to be a comfortable ride. Overall it was an experience
FUN LITTLE ZIPPY GOCAR!

5.00I booked the GoCar downtown San Francisco tour for my friend and I. We were celebrating our 40 year Alaska friendship. We both loved zipping around in this little GoCar. Just remember there's no reverse on the cars, so plan accordingly. We both had difficulty getting in and out of the car, which gave us a good laugh. We aren't spring chickens. Don't expect to put much into the trunk. I think, if I remember correctly, the big battery was in the trunk. I could just barely fit my small backpack in the trunk. The GoCars has a system that verbalizes your tour through the speakers. Our speaker was flaky at times, but came back on when our tour was almost over. When I initially used the turn signals, I didn't know you had to push the button in to get the signal off. We drove back to the GoCar place, and they showed me how to work the turn signals. I highly recommend wearing light-weight gloves if driving. It was a sunny beautiful day, and the back of my hands got sunburned!!! Lesson learned. The employees at GoCar were all friendly, helpful, and upbeat! You can tell they all love thier jobs! I would recommend renting a GoCar to tour around downtown San Francisco! It was a blast!
Cool city tour on your own

5.00Great introduction and mega fun on the go. Logging into the portal on site was a bit tedious but probably important, the Navi is also the personal German City Guide.

5.00Great experience, staff were friendly. Rain was in the forecast so they provided us with disposable ponchos. The car drove well and gave us no issues.

5.00The staff were amazingly helpful and kind. I'm not techy. I couldn't get the GPS audio to work. I swung back around to request help. They were extremely apologetic and quickly identified and fixed the issue. The issue was I'm an idiot and didn't know where the volume toggle was located. I highly recommend the 3 or 4 hour package. It takes you all over the City. It was fun, exciting, and absolutely worth it.
Fun way to explore SF.

5.00What a great way to see San Francisco in a fun 3 wheeler ride! Great way to see areas of SF that one might not get to view from a regular tour. Time goes by fast so plan accordingly. If you are not comfortable sitting in the low gocar, then upgrade to the electric version (good for tall people). A little pricey but worth the experience.
Great way to see SF!
