Had great fun driving through Akihabara and Asakusa at night 🌃 The guides were very friendly and helpful, and made the whole experience a lot of fun
Our experience started with us, missing our schedule time and they very kindly rescheduled for us later in the day. When we got there, they were friendly. They helped us get all set up and registered. They let us choose costumes so we could be silly. Then they took us on an amazing tour of Tokyo.
Fun experience, we went in day and had a lot of fun
Amazing experience would love to do it again!
So much fun! We rode during the sunset. Highly recommended.
The Tokyo Go-Kart Street Tour was an unforgettable way to see the city. Driving through the streets of Akihabara and surrounding areas was exciting, and the views were amazing. The guides were friendly, professional, and made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout the tour. Everything was well organized, and the photo opportunities were a great bonus. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique and fun activity in Tokyo!
Very good experience one on a life time
Excellent experience, good customer service and best guide for the tour
Me and my wife had a wonderful time driving through the city. Everything was safe, run efficiently, and fun. The staff and guides were great! It was a small intimate crowd for an affordable price, for an enjoyable hour ride. Would definitely do it again!
Awesome tour. Safe for inexperienced drivers. Definitely worth it if in Akasuka.
