Traveler reviews
Ride with Khan!
I had the best time driving through the streets if Tokyo! Our guide Khan was awesome, very thorough with the directions regarding our safety. He made sure to get pictures of everyone and that each person got a chance to be upfront during the 2hrs ride. Worth the price. I would say driving at night is probably more fun than daytime. Seeing the lights in Shibuya. My friends and I also got to drive alongside some really fun guys from Poland. To sum it all up, I WILL DEFINITELY SIGN UP AGAIN WITH KHAN FOR MY NEXT VISIT TO TOKYO. ☺️
Fast and fun
This experience was so fun and exciting! The staff are professional and were well organized. Our guide Julian was friendly and extremely patient. I was nervous when we first started, but he made sure we had a good time and were safe. The trip was even more interesting by Julian sharing information about the areas we were driving through. I definitely recommend this experience!
To be repeated
A highly recommended and fun activity. The guide was very pleasant and attentive. They care about everyone's safety.
10/10 experience - if you're visiting Tokyo, do not miss this!
An absolute MUST-DO in Tokyo! StreetKart was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Everything was organized with top-tier professionalism while keeping the vibe completely fun and relaxed. Even though the weather wasn't quite perfect on our day, it didn't ruin the fun for a single second - we had an absolute blast! The funny costumes available to wear make the whole experience even better. We took the A2-M course, and cruising through central Tokyo right between the towering skyscrapers was unreal. The biggest shout-out goes to our incredible guide, David! My girlfriend was initially terrified and extremely stressed about driving a go-kart, especially directly in Tokyo city traffic. Thanks to David’s amazing energy, calm guidance, and wonderfully positive atmosphere, she relaxed almost immediately. Within minutes, her stress completely disappeared, and she spent the rest of the tour smiling and having the time of her life. David kept us organized, safe, and constantly entertained.
Best Time EVER!
One of the best times I have ever had on vacation! The weather was perfect, it was easy to follow the guide, and it was once in a lifetime experience.
