👍👍 If there is one way to see Lisbon...this is it! We went for a 3 hour hire. They come with built in sat nav, which guides you around 3 different routes or you can just drive where you fancy. As we had the 3 hours we did 2 full routes and half of the 3rd. What is great is the sat navigation guides you... People often mention great, tour, Lisbon, experience, recommend, guide, time, city, hours, routes,

    The reception by the employees the day before was not very professional, which is why a star was deducted. Otherwise the trip was an attraction and you yourself were also an attraction and were photographed everywhere. The GPS system guided you wonderfully through the city and explained the places and attractions. A disadvantage was the suspension and the noise of the TukTuk Porsche. 2 hours of driving was completely sufficient.

    If there is one way to see Lisbon...this is it! We went for a 3 hour hire. They come with built in sat nav, which guides you around 3 different routes or you can just drive where you fancy. As we had the 3 hours we did 2 full routes and half of the 3rd. What is great is the sat navigation guides you but also gives you a full tour and explains all the different landmarks and provides the history. We have seen parts of the city which I am not sure we would have explored just by foot. What is great is, is whenever you want to stop to take pictures, have a refreshment or do a little exploring on foot...you just park up, lock your helmets in the boot and do what you want. I cannot recommend this enough, we have places to head to now to do more exploring. The staff were so friendly, explained the full working of the vehicle and the routes, couldn't be more helpful if they tried!! We're already looking out for these types of hires for our next holidays

    Amazing service. Make sure to ask for €10 insurance coverage. We didn’t even follow the tour. We used google maps to drive where we wanted, including the shopping centre which was hilarious. We arrived a bit late back to the drop off point but the employees are very generous and understanding. Have your license on hand too.

    I went on the Delicious tour and it was a blast. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the city's history and different neighborhoods. At the end of the tour we had the opportunity to taste some local foods and wines. I highly recommend as an alternative way to see this beautiful city.

    Beautiful bike tours, we did the 7 hills tour on an electric vintage bike and lived it. The tour was well organised and everyone can do this with a little help of technology now a days. I do however feel like the guide could have informed us a bit more about local restaurant to visit, must see places along the road etc. We heared a lot about the navigators, templers and freemasons and it was just a bit too much. Paul and Simon were very helpful and made our fist day in Lisboa complete!

    So the idea is fantastic! Navigation with routes are available but they are slow to react and its difficult to navigate and to focus on riding (its busy in the city centre and traffic is chaos). Its diffucult to look at your beautifull surroundings While riding so you need to stop for that. Through the centre tbere are parkings possible if you know where to whatch! We saw them after our excursion :) Maybe with a group tour or to something outside the centre or if you plan your own route in advance... again the idea is super, the company great and the service really good!

    Keep up the fantastic work you are doing Boost!!! We had a A la Carte Tuk Tuk Tour for 1.5 hours and Felipa, our Tuk Tuk driver went above and beyond with her service. She provided us with lots of fun facts about the history of Lisbon, took pictures of us when we stopped at a point of interest, answered our historic questions, and was just very friendly and great person to be around. Felipa picked us up on time in the centre of Lisbon and then the fun started for 1.5 hours. IF you want to see the beauty that Lisbon has to offer and know the history of this beautiful Portugal's capital, I highly recommend the TukTuk Tour from Boost, you will not regret it. THANKS AGAIN Felipa, you made our trip unforgettable.

    Do not do this. It’s absolutely dangerous. The instructions, on a tablet, cannot be seen during daylight so you are pretty much blind as to where you are going unless you are at a turning when the instructions literally just say “turn right now”. If you need to turn around, there’s no reverse, so you have to get out and push it back and forth until you face the right way. The your takes you on some of the biggest roads in Lisbon, you should be doing 50 but can’t go higher than 30 so you are the villain of the road. Getting back to go car comes with offline instructions and they are delayed, so we spent 50 minutes of our two hours just getting back as if you take a wrong turn, lisbon is on a one way system. So good luck. Wish I could refunded but we were just palmed off by staff with a “that’s funny, bye”

    We had great fun, the only caveat is that the GPS isn't really a GPS, rather it activates audio prompts when you are in certain locations, rather than giving turn by turn directions. Which makes it very easy to get lost. Otherwise, great fun!

    A cool concept. Simple vehicle to drive but a little noisy.

  • 5/5 Dhiren T. 1 year ago on Google • 115 reviews
    Fantastic experience with the Spinach Car from GoCar. We were assisted by David who was fantastic with explaining everything we needed to know and recommend some great places to stop outside the standard guided routes. We rented these for 2 hours which was plenty to get a nice feel of Lisbon and have a great experience however definitely recommend doing a full day if you want to stop to take in the sights and stop for lunch or coffee through the day. Thanks again David and team for a great experience.

    The truth is that it is a very fun experience!! In the car itself there is a screen that gives you a guide to typical places in Lisbon. The only drawback I have is that in an hour with the Lisbon traffic lights etc. you spend a little more time standing than in the car. And somewhat expensive for what the return trip is, which really gives you time to see 5 things!!

    My wife and I had a great experience cruising around on the spinach electric car, it was a total blast, easy to maneuver and to park! Is a different way to see Lisbon and we recommended it! Bea one was absolutely great, taking us from exposing the deals as how the car works and even taking pictures for us!

  • 5/5 Bernd K. 1 year ago on Google • 26 reviews
    The instruction from David was A1. The vehicle could be operated by fax and it was great fun to drive through the streets. The tour guide via the tablet was understandable and in German. Only recommended.

  • 4/5 J B. 11 months ago on Google • 17 reviews
    Great experience. Price was reasonable and the staff were very friendly. We rented the GoCar for 3 hrs which included a GPS that provided facts and information for all the attractions near by. Would recommend for anyone looking for a creative fun way to self-tour!

    Very funny tour. We were given an electric cart, which is a lot of work, but a lot of fun

    My wife and I did this tour in 2010. I set it up for a group from a cruise and booked 20 of the GoCars. They escorted the group with 3 motorcycles and we had a blast. I’m glad to see they are still in business. Now my 2 daughters and their husbands get to tour with GoCar in August.

    Great tour. Wonderful way to view the city.

  • 5/5 Josephine O. 2 years ago on Google
    My husband and I visited Lisbon for the day and did the 'Up The Hills' tour with the super knowledgeable Peter. Peter was an absolutely fantastic guide. He knew everything about everything. He was funny, remembered everyone's names, and gave us enough time for pictures and to take in the scenery. We spoke to Tiago on the phone before arriving and he was also super helpful. He sent us information about where to park, their website and confirmed our booking over the phone. Next time I visit Lisbon, I will definitely book another tour with Boost. FYI we parked about 10 mins walk away at Estacionamento Camões it was the cheapest parking we could find in the centre. It costs 15€ for a whole day, which is quite the bargain considering the location

    Great way to see the city and a load of fun at the same time

  • 5/5 Lilith M. 1 year ago on Google
    Fun way to get to know Lisbon! The GoCars are quite loud from inside and probably from outside as well, because people from the sidewalk will give you plenty of smiles and fingerpointing. There are 3 different routes to choose and the GPS will guide you and tell you some interesting facts along the way. You can also just take your own spontaneous route of course. In the shop Madalena was giving us some great tips and explained everything perfectly. Thank you for your kind help! :)

    The worst experience EVER ! dangerous - stressful - uncomfortable ! 1) GPS not working properly giving you direction 100m later.. 2) roads totally unappropriate in Lisbon , holes everywhere, very strange indications for one-way etc.. 3) soooo noisy you can not hear any guidance , and you finish with big headache, do not expect share a talk with passenger, just enjoy his/ her stress... 4) you can not go backward, you have to go out and push back.. the heavy stuff and get you foot under your own wheel ! 5) you are supposed to park on bike parking.. protected everywhere, allowing only bikes to get in ! good luck.. 5) But the very worse is as you bump on any small hole on road.. ( no shock absorbers!) you have to compensate 20-30cm side jump every second .. just expect not hit a truck or motorbike.. And you can believe roads in Lisbon are totally messy My advice ? FORGET IT ! Just use electric bicycle on perfect cycle tracks everywhere, in particular on sea side..

  • 4/5 Daniel H. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a great concept, however the maps are a little painful to use and the car is a little dated (and quite loud at full throttle, so you can hear anything else - even the info from the GPS guide), but it was still a unique experience. The real highlight was epic customer service from the team (shoutout to the Original/OG Bea), she made the whole experience so much more positive. We hired for 3 hours which was probably a bit long for us, but if you plan on stopping and exploring, then it's a perfect amount of time. Make sure you have a phone with internet/data as it's the only way to figure out what to do if you miss a turn.

    Great experience, my friend got lost and they were there within 10 minutes to help him. Very professional and great people as well.

  • 5/5 sunil a. 1 year ago on Google
    Bruno and team were amazing. If you are in Lisbon you must try this amazing experience of the go car with a gps that gives you a guided tour. There are three paths to choose from. Jus make sure your phone is fully charged in case you go off the path. I would definitley do it again.

  • 4/5 Saiba S. 1 year ago on Google
    We had some issues with the GPS sound but the team drove us another car and exchanged it. Sometimes the GPS is laggy but overall a super fun experience if you treat it like a regular car and go around. But parking spots are very hard to find that can have space for the car size and esp because you can't reverse you have to get out and push reverse

    10 stars, without a doubt to go back and do another segway tour. Our guide (Eduardo), friendly and professional, a big hug.
