Smart car
Published: November 30, 2009
Why hire a tour guide when you can rent a GPS-guided, talking tour car? The world’s first storytelling car, Go Car, narrates the ride as you cruise down city streets. Don’t worry about missing a turn, not only does the car point out landmarks and attractions of interest, such as famous movie sets and historic hotels, it also tells you where to go and when to increase or decrease your speed. It even brings you back to the rental store at the end of the tour. Arrange for a fleet of cars for group tours of the city or offer a one-hour tour as a door prize. Go Car Tours are currently available in San Francisco, San Diego, Miami, Barcelona and Lisbon, but additional franchises are in the pipeline. — Ashley L. Brazzel

GPS activated tours also available in rental kits that can go into any car. GyPSy Guide tours available in Canadian Rockies, Vancouver, Victoria, Whistler and everywhere in between. New releases soon for Las Vegas and Maui.
Great way to enjoy a guided tour when traveling independently. Customizable to large groups too.
