Best Sightseeing Experience in SD
This was such a fun sightseeing experience. First off the person who helped me, his name was Kelvin, he was patient and very nice, super helpful and explained everything in great detail. I was starting to feel like I wouldn’t be able to follow the instructions cause it seemed a bit overwhelming, he reassured me I would be ok, and if not I can return the go cart and not have to finish the tour. I really enjoyed this and will definitely do it again, I’m thinking I’ll upgrade to the electric go car. And I will definitely recommend this to all my friends and family.

The best Tour ever!!
The views were amazing & we took a lot of pics! The GPS was easy to follow! The traffic was slow but we utilize that time to get great pics along the way! I would love to go on another tour, specifically their night tour!

Best San Diego Experience
This was one of the best experiences on the GoCity Explorer pass. Lots of fun and a great way to see San Diego. The employees are super helpful getting you set up and will give you tips to ensure you stay on route.

Use a gocity pass to rent gocar
The gocity pass link is confusing. The staff on site was patient to explain it. Staff on day 1 didn't care about child height but we also couldn't ride due to no appointment, go city fault NOT gocar (iRide) fault. Staff on day 2, said child was too short but worked with us to swap from escooter to the car. I don't like that if there's only 3 we have to pay for 4. (Only a $10 fee and it is listed clearly. But still annoying.)

Go Car Fun!
Everything went great until me and the passenger got turned around. The GPS started to take us on another trip, but we called in and the employee came and helped to guide us back to the building to drop off the Go Cart. I appreciate there quick response and concern. Thank you!
