We decided to upgrade to the buggy and did a he tour. We ran out of time to hear all the historical points and only stopped once. So it goes by quick with traffic.

Consider traveling less distance so you can stop and enjoy some of the landmarks. Dress in layers. Great service and extremely helpful and accommodating.

We had a tour booked for later in the day and Marlon called to let us know it would likely rain and be less fun. He allowed us to come in as soon as we could. We had originally booked for scooters but had some technical difficulties. We were able to pivot and change our ride without any problems. Marlon and his staff made sure we had a great time! Very friendly and easy to work with!

The GPS guided tour was a super fun way to see the city. I was a bit intimidated at first to realize that we would not have an actual tour guide. It was not easy to stay on the tour path but making wrong turns was part of the fun. We also had a physical map and found our way back to the path pretty easily. We were in the go cart-like car with a back seat—so much fun!

Great customer service. The tour was wonderful. It is guided but you go at your own pace. The goCar was easy to drive and the course was well planned.

Fabulous experience! We had booked scooters but were offered to change to Go Cars if we wanted with no extra cost. We took them up on this and were so glad we did! Great GPS instructions and super helpful person who can be called at any time during the tour. Thoroughly enjoyed!

This was not a guided tour.. this is a self-guided with a speaker assisted GPS system. So abit misleading info. I did gave a good time but alone.

Awesome tour! Lots of fun and excitement on the scooters with our 19 and 20 year olds….a great family memory and lots of laughs (once we figured out how to ride!)

I was very happy with the staff, as short staffed as they were, they were very patient with our over large group. Not only were they patient, but they were all very friendly and helpful. On top of all that, we had a great time with the whole GoCar experience. Thank you
