We came down from the bay as a group of 3 plus a 60lb dog, and we all had an amazing experience with GoCar. The staff was extremely accommodating, friendly, and helpful and overall made the experience much better. The cars were a ton of fun and the two hour tour was the perfect amount of time for us. Our dog had a great time and got settled in pretty quickly in the seat beside me. We got tons of attention driving down the road in these and the navigation was spot on and interesting. Looking to do an SF tour next! read more

Much more fun than I thought it would be, when my 8 year old asked if we could do this I thought alright we can but I can't imagine it'll be great, but I was definitely wrong, it was great fun and I'd do it again. We did the hour tour but could have easily done a 2 hour one, time went by so quickly on that thing. Plus they're really easy to operate, my 78 year old mom did it with one of my kids and they managed to have fun and be safe. It's enjoyable and would recommend as a nice way to see town, and can easily spend 2 hours or more on this, very fun! read more

When we got there Alex had a current customer walk back and say their car wouldn't turn back on. Alex politely asked us to wait outside so he could run help them get fixed up. He returned 10 minutes later and got us all situated. He gave us extra time because of the inconvenience. Super helpful and the overall experience was great. And the cars are super fun to drive and man are they easy to park. read more

We did the GoCar Tour in Monterey in June 2025 and had an amazing time! It was such a fun and unique way to explore the area. The customer service was incredible. The route was beautiful--full of scenic stops and coastal views. We were able to pull over at multiple spots to take pictures, enjoy the ocean breeze, and just take in the beauty of Monterey and Pacific Grove. The GPS-guided narration made the drive super easy to follow, and it felt like a mix of sightseeing and a little adventure. We had zero issues with the car or the route, and the whole process--from check-in to return--was smooth and well organized. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a memorable, open-air way to see the coast. A perfect activity for couples or anyone who wants to do something a little different than the typical tour! read more

One of the best things to do if you're in Monterey. The employee was extremely welcoming and kind, taught us everything we needed to know. He got us ready to go very quickly. A shared parking lot(with a restaurant) that has limited parking, maybe about 8 spots if I remember. The car itself was easy and fun to drive. A GPS and audio guided tour. Make sure you follow the GPS and stay on track! I got lost for the first 10 minutes or so and went off track, but eventually found my way back into the correct guide(it doesn't help reroute you to the correct path). Saw many beautiful and intriguing things with the audio tour explaining everything. Goes about 40 mph max. The car itself is extremely loud, even when gently and slowly accelerating forward(10 mph or less), so you will turn a lot of heads from the noise alone. You can stop at certain points when the guide lets you(can skip and keep going). Grab a blanket that they offer during your ride, it can get cold quick. Overall a great experience. read more

Decided last minute to try out this tour and had no idea what to expect. Upon arrival, finding the spot was a little confusing, but they're on the outer side of the hotel. The check in process was fairly easy and the guy at the front was super helpful and explaining everything. I will say, while watching the instructional driving video, I was a little scared because it's supposed to be more like a motorcycle. Once I was in the sea car itself, it took a bit of figuring out, but after about 15 minutes, I got the hang of it and wow was it so much fun! I got to drive in the street lanes right next to the beach while the guided tour voiced my navigation and fun facts. I ended up absolutely loving the whole experience and by the 30 minute mark, I was just having so much fun. It might give you a little anxiety knowing that there's a line of cars behind you and that you might be causing traffic, but for the most part, most people are super friendly and will let you go. It was about $100 per car per for an hour and it was so worth it! read more

We came looking for a nice experience Israel the rep at the place did the job. He explained us so nicely so we end up taking the one hour tour which is enough Israel explain us how to operate and where to go and what's the best places so heads up for him really recommended we loved it. read more

I booked a Sea Car Tour for my husband and I on a Sunday and it was such a fun experience. I called a week in advance and booked over the phone. We arrived about 45 minutes early to make sure we didn't lose any time because you do need to fill out paperwork and present proof of car insurance and your drivers license. 21+ are eligible to drive. We were able to start our tour a few mins early which was great. I reserved the E-Coupe which is a newer car and the staff considers it a "motorcycle". The views throughout the tour were stunning and in the E-Coupe we could hear the guide from the tablet perfectly. We did a 2 hour tour and that was plenty of time to see great views of the ocean, stop at the lighthouse and stop multiple other places to take a few pictures. It was an awesome experience! read more

If I could drop 1.5 stars, this review would be 3.5. But I'm going to leave it at 3. August 2021: I'm disappointed that they gave my parents a wrecked/ ugly car. (See photos) It's kind of funny to me that they didn't even give my parents the cars next to my rental sea car? I wonder why tbh. We even tried asking for a nicer looking car but with no hesitation, the broken car was supposedly one of "best working cars" lol yet there was one right next to ours and when we came back after strolling the wharf, cars in the second row were gone. It was my parents first time and it was pretty obvious, so of course, as their child, I would want them to have a full-almost-perfect experience; especially with something "fun" like this. Except nope, let's just give some oldies a jacked up car. Another thing that was different with this second time around was, I guess, they don't pull the sea cars outside the lot anymore (which is inconvenient because it could get backed up in the parking lot). Other than the above, we still made the most out of this experience. read more

My boyfriend and I took a trip to Monterey to for some out of town fun. We reserved a couple of sea cars to fill out itinerary. This was so fun and really made our trip a great one! We reserved two scoot coupes (1 for each of us) for a one hour tour. The cars were easy to use and worked great. We traveled around Monterey and the views were absolutely breath taking. The tour had really cool facts and information for us. I would absolutely do this again! I would love to try the 3 hour tour next time. read more

we used your four wheel carts. we had a great time specifically because of the narration of the history of the area. We took the three hour tour and learned a lot. We were able to stop and rest and look around in different areas along the coast line of Monterey. I was with my cousin and another friend. I was a little concerned about the cost however, your business name proved me wrong because the experience and the narration provided enough education, an interest in different areas of Monterey Bay. A great experience for all of us.. People stopped and thumbs up and thought that this was just an awesome vehicle to run around in.. read more

Best friend and I had a blast doing the two hour coupe tour. The staff was friendly. There are only two small things I wish were different. 1) I wish the steering handlebars were on the left side so my friend didn't have to keep her arm squeezed in out of the way 2) the voice of the tour guide was louder or had volume control as it was hard to hear the voice over the car and with the wind. Overall lots of fun and I appreciate the guided tour portion with education about historical buildings, etc. read more

I have used this service twice now. The first time my husband and I did the tour with the E-Coupe and had so much fun. We decided to come back with our kids and rented 2 scoot coupes and had a blast!

The experience: Fun but with some caveats. The seat was uncomfortable and resulted in some back soreness the next day. The cars are a bit older so they may have a slight directional drift or some minor inconveniences. The audio on the iPad gets drowned out from the nose of the car so it is hard to hear the tour information. Need to know: It takes about 15 minutes to fill out the paperwork and go through the safety/operation information. Do bring a jacket and sunglasses, even if it is sunny/warm outside. The one hour tour is more than sufficient as you get great views of the coastline. You also get a 15 minute grace period which allows you to stop at vistas if you want. Notable: I should mention that the staff member was very helpful and friendly, accommodating us as a walk in. read more

Super fun experience seeing Monterey and the neighboring cities! We booked out the tour a few months back for a Saturday afternoon. Unfortunately, due to the rain the day of, we had to reschedule. The staff was very friendly and accommodating so we were able to go out on Sunday morning before leaving. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable when it came to giving instructions. We had no issues with our scooter and it went super fast. The map was easy to follow but did get confusing at times when the route overlapped. Overall, we had a super fun time and the 1 hour tour was perfect for us since we did this on our last day and had already explored most of the area. I would highly recommend this to anyone! read more

The ride and experience was fun and enjoyable overall. Our first time on the Sea Car tour ride and I liked how we got to pass by the Monterey Bay Aquarium and go up the coast to Pacific Grove beach side and back down to Monterey. You will be driving with on going traffic however, a lot of people driving seem to be used to seeing Sea Car riders on the road Definitely will do next time we come back to Monterey!

we had so much fun. The young girl who helped us in Monterey was wonderful to work with. She didn't press for time and made the whole experience enjoyable. You can hear the speaker just fine and even when you get off the path speaker helps you get back on the path. Definitely recommend. Be aware it is a tight fit for larger people. That was the only negative. read more

We love Sea Car Tours! What a great experienced. We did the two hours tour and the vehicle reminded me of Super Mario Kart but at a safer speed of 35 mph. We drove from Old Fishermen Wharf to Cannery Row, and Lovers Point. Thanks Sea Car Tour for making this a memorable vacation. read more

Great tour and location. We enjoyed the route that was provided to us via an iPad. We did the hour tour which gave us a few min to park by the coast and take a quick pictures. The reason for not giving the tour a 5/5 star is due to the fact that the cars are so loud and you cannot hear the navigation at all. The tour gives you the back ground and history of all the locations but you can't hear anything. We did get lost at one point since the navigation turned off so we just kept driving straight until the navigation turned back on. Over all it was a fun activity and now we know all the great spots to stop by in Monterey read more

We booked 5 Sea Car Tour for our team building event on a Saturday and it was a fun experience for all of us. We called weeks in advance and booked over the phone. We arrived 15-30 minutes early to fill out waiver, paperwork, and present proof of driver license. The instructor was very helpful and explained clearly on how to navigate the car safely. We did the 2 hours tour and the views was amazing. We stopped at the lighthouse and beach to explore more. It was a great experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone. read more

Planned a trip to Monterey for Father's Day weekend and of all the times we've went to Monterey we never tried the seacar. Let me just say what a wonderful way to learn and explore Monterey. We went to parts that we didn't even know existed. It was a pretty chilly day so we didn't quite dress accordingly. I definitely suggest grabbing a thick sweater or jacket. Also don't forget the sunglasses highly recommend this excursion. We did the 3 hour tour and it was perfect because we made several stops to enjoy certain areas even stopped for a quick bite. read more

So Much Fun! Loved the GPS guided tour. Two hours was a good amount of time, we would have stopped more if it wasn't for SIP. Our guide made sure we were 100% comfortable before leaving. Advice- if you have small hands its a little tiresome for 2 hours of driving but not unbearable. If you go after 4 take a sweatshirt for the stretch along the coast. Do This Tour! read more

Had a 2-hour tour reserved for Father's Day. MANY of the cars were broken down from the day before. The business did not call Saturday to cancel - they called Father's Day morning at 10:04 to cancel the 10:30 - we were already in Monterey. Walked through the door and was told that our tour was canceled due to none of the cars in stock were operational. They offered a refund and we accepted. We mentioned that we booked with Groupon. Were informed that the price was the same (so much for the advertised discount). Asked for a phone number for the manager and an email to lodge a concern. The front desk gave me a first name but did not offer a phone number or an email. Did not have one to share. Awful experience. Poor customer service. read more

The little yellow cars were a fun way to sightsee along Cannery Row and Lovers Point. We were disappointed in the little cars' upkeep. Our seat belts were hand knotted to the fixtures and the front windshields had duct tape securing them. The website gives the impression that there is a programmed iPad that walks us through the route. Instead, we were instructed to use our own GPS navigation on our phones also, the "speaker" for music was a worn out little portable thingy that was staticcy. The website should also inform that these do not reverse which makes for tricky parking. read more
