Very professional business. I had problems with payment because of PayPal and my bank. My transaction was pending for months, so I didn't manage to go on the tour. When the transaction was finally completed, they refunded the money even after all those months. 100% legit
First class, exclusive JDM car enthusiast tour. I had the pleasure of taking the 4 hour tour to Daikoku night car meet on a Sunday evening in a private tour in the Liberty Walk R35 GTR. Leading up to the tour Niche were very good at communicating with us and even so on the day prior they gave us some options with wet weather forecast. This gesture speaks volumes on the professionalism of the group. We decided to proceed despite the wet weather conditions. The 4 hours can be broken into 4 parts with some great time in the car talking all things JDM and Japanese car culture. 1. Hotel to Liberty Walk Harajuku with time to browse the store and buy some merchandise. 2. Liberty Walk to Autobacs - OMG this is a car mega store with every thing from car parts, clothing, reading materials, RC cars, there is even a separate building for Motorcycles in a similar theme. I could have spent hours in that place. There is time for coffee / frappe from the Starbucks inside. 3. Autobacs to Daikoku, a blast down some of the iconic Japanese freeway systems that JDM lovers get to know so well prior to descending down to the Daikoku car park where the car meets take place. The turn out car meet can be weather dependent, the evening was a good turn out. 4. Daikoku back to the hotel via the famous Rainbow bridge. The pilot for my tour was Ken. What a gentleman. He is extremely personable and highly knowledgeable on all things JDM and Japanese car culture. I highly recommend Niche and I look forward to rebooking another tour with a different car in the not so distant future.
What an absolute blast!!! We came in from Alaska and we had big hopes they all were delivered on. We lucked out and got the owner. He was unbelievably kind. I'm alot to deal with I'm loud I curse I'm not for everyone he made me feel right at home. We did the private tour and the car meet was packed! It was spectacular. Tons and tons of cars from all over. I highly recommend this. Don't be a fool and do the Mario carts go feel and see real Japanese horsepower. Josh thank you again. He even bought us a Starbucks. Kind soul. Don't sleep on this!!
Love this. Thank you so much for the review!!
Drivers were amazing very polite and fun would definitely recommend to anyone especially car people. Also they were very mindful and fun to talk to
Thank you so much!!
My family and I took two cars, the r34 gtr and the r35. Both our guides, Hoshi and Josh, were extremely knowledgeable not only about the car scene but Japanese culture as well and super super nice. I had a fantastic time, the daikoku car meet is something I’ve always dreamed of visiting and getting to ride in my favorite car was the cherry on top! Highly, highly recommend this tour. Thank you so much for making my dreams come true!
Thanks so much for booking with us. Hope to see you again in Japan some day!
hi) my name is Tony, I'm from Russia, today I finally took advantage of a tour from these cool guys on real cool cars for the first time, my dream was for someone to show me the world of JDM, Tokyo from the other side, as well as the city and how beautiful the roads are in Tokyo, first of all, since I'm from Russia, despite all the difficulties, the guys came to meet me and we agreed on a meeting, discussed all the details, got to know each other, talked, agreed on the time and place and this day of my dreams came true, Josh showed me interesting and very beautiful places, as well as famous places in Japan, for the first time I visited an autobucks store that made my head spin so much that I didn't know what to see in it, he also showed me a wonderful place Daikoku, I was very glad to see so many cool Japanese sports cars, it's a pity that the police spoiled this party a little, but this did not change my mood for all this .... I want to thank these guys, guys, you are doing a very good deed, sometimes there are tourists who really don't know who to turn to so that they can show him Japan from a different side and show him the real cool cars that are in Tokyo, thank you and good luck, I hope we will meet again😎☺️ My trip to Tokyo on my travels this season will be one I will remember for a long time☺️☺️☺️😊
Thanks Tony!!
I got in touch with these guys at the very last minute for a tour to daikoku with a skyline R34. They quickly sorted me out and next day we headed to daikoku. If you're a JDM enthusiast as me, it's hard to describe how awesome experience this was. The car, the tour, the driver (Hoshi) was very cool! If you into cars, don't miss out on this.
Thank you very much!
Last week we had a great experience we booked a private tour with 2 GTR cars. The boys spent so much time showing us the best spots in town. Beeing in these cars was the best experience for my kids. The highlight of your holiday in Japan. Make sure you book a private tour with special cars, I know it's more expensive, but really worth it. It makes the excursion complete.
Thank you so much for the review. We’re glad you enjoyed it and we could be part of your highlight in Japan. Thanks again!
To all who want to discover the Japanese car culture in the best way possible, contact them 10/10 marvelous experience big thanks to Josh for giving us an amazing tour and thanks Niche Drive for making us feel like locals
Glad to hear Josh took care of you! Thank you for booking with us and for taking time to recommend us!
We had an absolutely amazing experience with Niche Tours! We had organised for the private GTR 35 tour as a surprise for our car loving son and it was brilliant. Ken and Josh were wonderful, knowledgeable, easy to work with and organise our tour. The cars were awesome and the tour was really great. If you are in Tokyo it is a definite must do and worth the money. Our son is still talking about his GTR 35 ride. Thanks again Ken and Josh we will definitely recommend to all our friends and family who travel to Japan.
Thank you so much for the review. We are so happy to hear this and thank YOU for allowing us to be part of your son’s highlight in Japan!
