What To Expect

Palace of Fine Arts Theatre

The Palace of Fine Arts in the Marina District of San Francisco, California, is a monumental structure originally constructed for the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition in order to exhibit works of art presented there. One of only a few surviving structures from the Exposition, it is still situated on its original site. In addition to hosting art exhibitions, it remains a popular attraction for tourists and locals.

What is a CDW?

Wheelchair accessible
GoCar’s hold a maximum of 2 people. Prices are per GoCar – not per person.

Can you cross the Golden Gate Bridge?

Transportation is wheelchair accessible
Do you have to stay on the tour?
Are controlled with a motorcycle-style handle, throttle, and hand brakes. The 3-wheeled cars seat two and have a lockable trunk for your things. Their small size makes parking a breeze, and in San Francisco – a major bonus!
