Drive a GPS-guided Storytelling Car and experience San Diego's evolution from a military city to a modern and artistic hub.
Start in historic Little Italy, home to the Italian community, and see how it evolved into the modern business and artistic community it is today.
Make your way past the ships in the bay that explored the new world, or patrolled the waters in time of war, into the Gaslamp Quarter which was once San Diego’s red-light district, and see how it got re-imagined into the social scene it is today.
As you leave modern San Diego you will begin your trip into history as you make your way through beautiful Mission Hills, passing many houses and businesses 50 years old and some much older.
Head past Historic Fort Stockton, into Presidio Park where the old Spanish Mission used to stand, into Old Town San Diego where you can see how San Diego looked in the old west with its Spanish and American residents forming a thriving community.
This tour is for anyone who wants to see how San Diego has changed over the years, but still stayed true to its Military roots.

Fold up your map, put away the guidebook and let the GoCar show you what most visitors never see! Zip around in a cute, yellow Storytelling GoCar as it takes you on your own GPS-guided tour. The GoCar is easy and fun to drive. Since it is GPS-guided, the car knows where you are – even if you don’t. With you in the driver’s seat, it not only tells you where to turn, it tells the stories that bring the city to life. Let the car direct you, or for those more adventurous, blaze your own trail!

Above is only a suggested route. Your tour’s length may vary due to circumstances such as departure time and location, traffic and your itinerary. If you do take additional rental time, this will be billed in 15-minute increments at our retail rates. You may visit all or some of the tour’s highlights. If you are unsure of which tour to book, just book according to the amount of time you think you would like to spend. We can customize a tour especially for you, with the sights you want to include, when you come into our shop.
