Who We Are
Vamos! Lion Chariot is a locally-owned pedicab company servicing Penn State and State College, otherwise known as Happy Valley.
Pedicabs (also called rickshaws) are a fun and efficient way to get around, but also an enjoyable way to sightsee.
The goal isn't just getting you there, but making the trip memorable. To increase the fun meter, we play music and have other onboard "bells and whistles". Our engaging pedicab tours are narrated by locals, many of whom are affiliated with Penn State
As we like to say, if you don't end your ride with a smile, we aren't doing our job!
