Amazing Experience!

Kie_C, Dec 2023

Was looking for a street go-kart for me and my wife and decided on this one in Asakusa as it's near where we stayed. We booked the night timing and as Asakusa is mainly busy during the day where people come for the temple, we were the only 2 on the tour and it felt like a private session! The roads weren't busy as well so it was nice and easy to drive, with plenty of straights to speed up. Our guide was also really nice, took so many photos and videos of us and airdropped once we got back. Highly recommended!

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Chris_Y, Oct 2023

Exhilarating to drive the very powerful and fun go kart sound the streets of Asakusa. The whole experience from start to finished was very organised with safety we’ll emphasised.

If you’re thinking about this, just do it!!

Daniel_B, Oct 2023

Such a fun experience! It was longer than I expected and the karts faster too. I hope to do it again the next time I travel to Tokyo! Everyone working here is upbeat, friendly, and helpful. We only wish they had more T-shirts for sale in our size. It was also quite safe since you stay together in a group and the tour guide makes it really easy to follow him.

Response from Host, Dec 2023

Thank you for the nice review and kind words. We are glad to hear that you had a fun and safe tour with us. Sorry about the T-Shirts, we have limited stock in each size. But we are planning on providing more supply. We also have other souvenir items, such as hats, that you can get at our shops. Thank you for joining us on the tour. We hope to see you again in the future. Have a nice day! -Street Kart Team

So much fun!!

Street Cart - Must Experience

Alisha_K, Mar 2020

Visiting Tokyo for 5 days from USA! This was a true highlight - our tour guide Miya was the BEST! He took a ton of photos throughout the tour and sent them to us! We had a group of 4, two were very comfortable with the carts while two of us were a little nervous! He made everything so easy and put us at ease in the carts pretty early on!! It was an amazing way to see pieces of the city!!!

Great fun

Stephen_Y, Oct 2019

Just great fun - karts are nippy and it’s amazing to be able to drive through one of the worlds biggest cities on the main roads

So much fun!

Laura F, Oct 2019

This was such a fun thing to do while in Tokyo! Seeing the city on the go kart was a whole different experience. It was safe, the tour guide made sure no one got left behind. I did the day drive, next time i will do the night!

An awesome way to see Asakusa!

Janna_I, Jun 2019

I really had a lot of fun doing the street go-kart tour in Asakusa. We started out right before it started getting dark, so I got to see the area in both daylight and dark. I was worried prior to booking that I wouldn't know how to drive on the left side of the road and that the actual cars and buses would be too close... but everything turned out really well! The guide was easy to follow, which made driving on the opposite side of the road easy and cars/buses didn't get too close to us. The guides are super fun and really make it an enjoyable experience for you :) Also, they take pictures for you, so you don't have to worry about having your phone/camera out.

Amazingly Fun ! This tour was...

David_F, Jan 2018

Amazingly Fun ! This tour was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! The WHOLE staff was a pleasure to be around. We showed up on our original date, but left our international permits in the hotel, Megumi was awesome and able to help us rearrange for the next day ! We were also lucky to have two tour guides, and they were an absolute blast to drive with especially Takuya ! Totally Recommend this tour to anyone that's on the fence about it ! Well run and a LOT of fun !

Aida_S, Oct 2019

Een goed ontvangst en duidelijke uitleg. Daarna in je outfit naar de streetkarts voor een tour door Tokyo. Wat een ervaring en wat hebben wij hiervan genoten. Onvoorstelbaar dat je dit in de stad kunt doen en super veilig. We raden dit iedereen aan om dit in Tokyo te doen. De glimlach gaat niet meer van je gezicht af.
