“Driving around downtown with talking GPS, with family and on the GoCar were so much fun. Their customer service was great and very accommodating. Thanks for our young adults in the group who keep us on track when lost (computer shabby). So follow the GPS if you're alone. We were late to pick up our whole day ride paid, but if not then we could have more fun... It's our fault. This is best way to visit San Diego tourist spot. What a great experience. Thank you very much”
