Cross the Golden Gate Bridge
The linchpin of the tour is a northbound crossing of the Golden Gate Bridge in the electric GoCAR EV Sport—an unmistakable San Francisco moment and the direct link to Sausalito’s shoreline.
Sausalito’s Waterfront and Boardwalk
Just beyond the bridge, Sausalito offers a compact, bayside downtown where you can stop for lunch or a leisurely walk along the boardwalk and enjoy sweeping views back toward the city.
City Icons and Optional Detours
Along the suggested route are signature San Francisco stops—Fisherman’s Wharf, Lombard Street (optional), Fort Point, the Presidio, and the Marin Headlands (optional detour)—so you can tailor the run to scenic viewpoints or city landmarks.
