It was a lot of fun zipping around town in such a small vehicle. Kind of an adventure, easy to park and get out to take a few pics and that is a VERY big deal in San Diego. I highly recommend it.

I highly recommend.

Our vehicles alignment did not seem appropriate it felt like the steering was crazy and we really struggled to keep the vehicle straight and because of that I was extremely nervous being on the road with all the other vehicles and I was not really able to enjoy the the trip

We weren’t sure what to expect, but was very pleasantly surprised at how informative and fun it was for the whole family. The weather was fantastic and we learned so much more about San Diego then we ever did before, and we had been to San Diego many times before.

I enjoyed the customer service. The attendant was polite and help throughout the entire process before the ride. Good experience and will recommend this place for others to try the place out.

We had so much fun! Wonderful experience while enjoying beautiful San Diego. Definitely recommend to try if you’re looking for an out of the box experience.

We loved being able to drive and experience San Diego at our own pace. We loved the talking feature on the points if interest. The Gas Lamp Distict and Old Town experiences were great!
Melinda_H, Sep 2021
Great experience. Fun. I don't personally feel like you need a whole day. Just a couple hrs to explore and get historical facts. Then go back if you want more on your own time. Our car was a little compromised; it pulled to the right a little and was semi difficult to drive. But other than that Customer service was great.
