GoCar Tours – GPS Guided Tour Carts

28 March 2007 One Comment

THE CURE FOR THE COMMON TOUR ™

The GoCar is the first GPS-guided tour car that launched in San Francisco in April 2004.  As the “first ever storytelling car”, it’s evidently the most fun way to tour San Francisco, San Diego and Miami.

The GoCar looks like a tiny yellow two-seater car, but is actually a three wheeled moped that carries two passengers required to wear helmets. The “integrated” tour guide system provides running commentary in a choice of five languages. The GoCar takes you to spectacular places few visitors get to see on their own. It’s like having a local show you around. This little car can go where the tour buses can’t.  It also allows you to tour at your own pace. The GPS tour guide will make suggestions for good stops and direct the driver if he or she gets lost.  Gone is any excuse to be a stupid tourist!

      The GoCar is really cute. I had a chance to ride one when I was down in California.
