Frequently Asked Questions
What is a GoCar?

GoCar is the world's first computer-guided storytelling car. The clever talking car navigates for you, but that's not all. As you drive, it points out the sights and tells you the stories that bring San Francisco to life.

How long does the tour take?
The tour can take as long as you like - that's the whole point! You go at your own pace, not the pace set by a tour bus operator. As you go, you're choosing the attractions you want to stop and see. You can complete the tour in as little as one hour if your time is limited. You can also make it a leisurely day trip if you'd rather, stopping to explore attractions or museums along the way. It's totally your choice. If you're having the time of your life, keep exploring! It's a fantastic city and there is plenty to see. The average tour duration is 2 1/2 hours.

Can I stop along the way?
Of course! 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. As soon as you start to drive again, the car will begin to talk!

Do you have to stay on the tour?
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 we provide to navigate your own way through the city streets. You can even put a CD in the stereo and enjoy music along the way!

How many points of interest can I expect to encounter on the tour?
There are well over 50 historical points and landmarks along the guided tour.

How fast does the car go?
The GoCar will do 35 mph. Note that drivers in Downtown San Francisco do not typically drive fast, therefore an average speed of 30 mph or less can be expected while driving.

Is the GoCar electric or gasoline-powered?
Our cars are powered by a gas engine that gets 60+ MPG. A full tank of gas will usually give a 60 mile range. We are hoping for an electric version in the future.

How many people can fit in a GoCar?
A maximum of 2 people are able to ride in the vehicle.

How old do you have to be to rent a GoCar?
You must be over 18 years of age to rent a GoCar. We will use our discretion, however, with people under the age of 21, and especially with larger groups.

Is vehicle insurance available, and how much does it cost?
Yes, the daily collision damage waiver (CDW) for the rental is similar to a car rental and costs $9/day for the GoCar, if elected by the driver.

What clothing is appropriate for the convertible GoCar in San Francisco?
San Francisco weather is very warm during the summer months, but can be a bit breezy otherwise. Bring a jacket or extra layers and store it in the GoCar's trunk. We can loan warm clothing too. Just ask!

Safety and Parking
Helmets are provided and are required by California law. All riders will receive a full orientation.

GoCars can be parked in Motorcycle parking, or can legally share a metered parking space with a car if the meter is fed and the car isn't blocked.
