Fun little cruise thru San Diego. Historic sites with amazing weather. Great adventure for a family.

Best experience ever!! I was super scared at first. Especially because this was my first time drive anything that fast, but after a bit practice, I had the time of my life. It had me excited the whole time, not once was I bored.

David_S

Customer service was immaculate we really enjoyed the scooters, the scenery and time spent with each other. I would and will definitely do again.

Cassandra_W

Such a great time! The staff were very patient and helpful when we asked to use the motor car instead of the scooters due to comfort. Thank you again we enjoyed the tour!

Loved rolling through Little Italy & GasLamp as an introduction to San Diego’s cuisine, history, & modern architecture. The vehicles were pretty fast as well. My wife didn’t enjoy being in traffic but I thought it was extremely fun and informative. There was some difficulty getting back but we were not charged anything extra. All in all, I recommend and would do it again in a larger group next time.

Decent informative tour overall. However, my scooters GPS and audio cut out halfway through the tour. My wife’s scooter worked the whole time, but kind of a bumpy ride and sometimes hard to hear audio over traffic. It was a good introduction to San Diego, but would have liked more time then the designated 1h time slot. (Took 1.5h start to finish without stopping). We did turn a lot of heads around the city and get asked questions about the cool, big wheeled scooters.

... definitely needs improvement unfortunately. ... We were given GPS directions for a car, even though we were on a scooter. We were expected to remember to modify the directions. .... Consequently we got lost, ...we only wanted to be on the scooter for an hour and after 2 hrs, we actually got separated because the GPS stopped working. ... On every turn the GPS should say the street name. That is how we got lost. It said to turn right but did not say on which street. So we turned right on the wrong street and went out of GPS range. ... We try to find our own way back and got separated. .. we got separated in a not good area without a lot of homeless people. ... I called the office to have my friend picked up because she was having an anxiety attack and they said no. It was only after I insisted they agreed to go find her. ... Definitely definitely need to have separate GPS's for scooter and for car ... Definitely need a home button, in case people get lost ... Definitely needs to redirect if you get lost not just have the GPS shut off.

The bikes are fun and the area they take you is pretty cool. I would have preferred a little more time though. We didn't deter from the route and still didn't make it back on time. There wasn't any time to stop and just enjoy. But the customer service guy was awesome and gave us a 10 minute window.
