It was really a super cool experience. We had booked 2 hours and the time passed very quickly, so we would have liked to extend to 3. It's a "small car" - but anyone who sees the pictures is also expecting it. Perfect for the small narrow streets. Absolute recommendation for a varied way of getting to know a city - the navigation system including the city tour was also very amusing (we had set it to English).

Highly recommended to everyone! Amazing experience and really cool way to explore the beautiful city of Lisbon. My husband and I booked a Go-Car trip of 7 hours and got 4 different routes we could follow on GPS with sound on. You decide for yourself the places you want to take a break, so you can park in moped parking lots. If you are offered to drive in the green electric Go-Car, you should definitely choose it, as you sit more comfortably and because it does not make as much noise as the regular yellow Go-Car and because the navigation is newer.

very noisy car, GPS does not recalculate the route and there is a delay so we lost and could not get back on track. the car does not reverse and so we are stuck in some streets to return. As a driver (I was with my mother) it was very stressful because the direction is very hard and I had no GPS, lost in Lisbon.
