They started with an instructional video how to operate the karts on the streets of Tokyo but it did not prepare us for the excitement the city and people provided. The lead was great navigating us through the crowded city traffic in single file - and keeping us together at the red lights in double file = while the people on the sidewalks waved at us and took our pictures. I was not anticipating being a celebrity.

The team were very well organised, with an excellent instructional video (in English), and they took safety very seriously. There were storage lockers and plenty of outfits to choose from. The karts were quite new which was good to see compared to some others going by that perhaps were not as visible as ours. The guide took many photos which were sent immediately after the tour, which was a great view and ride around Tokyo. I thought it was going to be a slower ride around, but we got to 50 km/h quite a few times making it exhilarating.

Getting to the location was also very easy from Akihabara station which was well located for an easy stroll to electric town afterwards.

Pure fun. While it requires getting an international drivers license, it’s worth the effort. Wizzing around central Tokyo and waving at amused pedestrians brings joy. The karts are well maintained and the guides are professional and focused on safety. Just do it!

My friends and I made this a ‘must do’ experience on our trip to Tokyo, we were staying in Shinjuku and chose the Akihabara tour as it was 2hrs long and only approx 30mins trip by train from where we were staying. This was our tour of choice and was extremely exhilarating!! Our tour was 4pm-6pm so we got the benefits of seeing the streets at twilight and night time, so we got the best of both worlds. Driving around up to 60klms p/hr with Tokyo traffic dressed in our character costumes that were available for free to wear from the shop. Pablo was our guide and he was amazing at showing us the best illuminations on the streets and points of interest in the area. You will need an international driving permit before you go, we got ours from a local RACQ at home in Cairns before we went which was about $44 AUD.
Thanks again PABLO!! We would definitely do this again. SO MEMORABLE.

Im glad we decided to do it.
Yes international driving license is needed even if you hold a Spore driver’s license.

We took the 2 hours tour in the evening to have a view of the sun set as well.

It was chilly and thank goodness we wore our jackets inside and the costume over it.

Highly recommended at least once for the experience!

The instructors were so amazing. They took great photos, answered questions & made sure I was comfortable the entire tour! I was a solo rider & the group canceled so I truly had a VIP experience. Amazing! Thank you.

I was scared at first…(first time driving in another country, especially since we were driving on the other side of the road that we are accustumed to), but quickly got the hang of it. The staff, especially Usama, provided all the neccesary tutorials. One of the highlights of our trip! So cool! We did the tour at sundown…cool scene with the city lights.
