    The Perfect Tour for Enthusiasts or people trying to learn absout cars and the surrounding culture!
    Daniel_D, Apr 2024
    Amazing tour, if I could I would rate it with more than 5 Stars! (Me and a friend booked this tour for early April 2024) The tourguide was amazing! Great knowledge about cars, the car culture and Japan in general! Not one question went unanswered! If you are looking for a great tour to daikoku and the surrounding POIs that leaves your JDM loving heart satisfied I can only recommend this one!
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Super fun to have had you guys on the tour! I also thoroughly enjoyed myself :)
    Michael was a very cool...
    Adrian_M, Apr 2024
    Michael was a very cool host with lots of insight to the Japanese car culture and classic cars. We had good chats and didn't really notice how quick 5 hours had passed. The ride to Diakoku was also very impressive and gave us a nice picture. We saw plenty of nice cars and it was very interesting watching people's passion about their rides. Must do if you are a car guy. Strongly recommended. Cheers Adrian and Azadeh
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Super cool to have had you guys on the tour and I am glad you enjoyed.
    Best Part of Our Trip to Japan!!!
    Gabriel_P, Apr 2024
    It was incredible experience. Michael was very knowledgeable of Japan’s car culture and car scene. You’ll get taken around the beautiful highway system giving you opportunities for amazing photos. Additionally, while being driven Michael will explain what certain roadways are famous for. This was easily the best part of our Japan trip. 10 out of 10, it’s a must do if coming to Japan.
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Gabriel, I am glad you guys had lots of fun and thank you for the patch...awesome!
    Must do for Japanese car enthusiasts

    Michael the tour operator communicated days prior to the tour and when running late on the day due to traffic. Very common being stuck in the expressway in Tokyo. I was lucky to see the tour during the day and night. We went to two parking spots. Being out for so long I was worried there weren’t any restrooms or any where to buy food. There are restrooms at both stops and food at Daikoku. Michael knows a lot about cars. We had great conversations in the car, being a Canadian his English is great. When you’re there Michael leaves you to roam and do your own thing, if you wish. On the return I was dropped off close to my hotel. There aren’t trains nearby, so if you’re not keen on renting a car and want to check out the car scene, this tour is for you! Highly recommend this tour. I’d definitely do it again.
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    It was great having you on the tour Mala! I really enjoyed our conversation.
    Great experience to all the top spots
    Darwin_P, Mar 2024
    Great experience. Michael did an amazing tour for the pouring rain and answered all car and non car related inquiries. He was also very accommodating and willing to take as much time as needed for the rain to let up. Night time appears to be the best time for the tour but i am sure things are happening all the time.
    Response from Host, Mar 2024
    Darwin, it was super cool to chat and share stories.
    FUN ADVENTURE!
    Nani_a, Mar 2024
    Michael was fun and so informative! We really enjoyed our evening. He picked us up in a super neat area of Tokyo. Rain tried to ruin our adventure but he was so amazing and rerouted us to make our evening special.
    Response from Host, Mar 2024
    It was really fun having you guys on the tour! Yes, LOL, while we cannot stop Mother Nature, we are able to adapt and have fun!
    Amazing JDM experience
    Tomasz_J, Mar 2024
    Whole meet up was one big amazing memory. Very informative and climatic trip. Would go again if I could because I missed some amazing vehicles.
    Response from Host, Mar 2024
    Thank you Tomei! Definitely come back to see more :)
    Would do this again!
    Jonas_B, Feb 2024
    Highlight of my Japan trip! Michael is an awesome guide with a lot of knowledge and a very easygoing and friendly attitude! We had a bit rainy weather but it didn't matter at all, the turn out of cars at Daikoku was great! We saw a lot of awesome cars and I had a really good time! I recommend this for everyone!
    Response from Host, Feb 2024
    Thank you Jonas! Yeah, the stance Roadster crew was insane as was the green Civic.
    A MUST DO FOR JDM FANS
    Philip_g, Feb 2024
    Went with my father and uncle, Both enjoyed the experience just as I. Our guide Michael was very friendly and you couldn’t ask for a better guide to take you through the roads of tokyo all the way to Daikoku pa. Worth every penny
    Response from Host, Feb 2024
    It was great to hear all the dealership stories from your uncle! I am glad you all enjoyed it.
    Easy, fun, enjoyable Japanese car experience.
    Conor_K, Jan 2024
    Michael was a great tour guide. I learned about the car culture and about driving in Japan. We went to some famous meet spots and saw a ton of cars that we don't have back in the states. Pretty good way to spend an evening in Tokyo if you don't have a car to go to these places on your own.
    Response from Host, Jan 2024
    Thank you Conor! It was a pleasure to chat with you and share the car "stuff" :)
    Another side of Tokyo Tourism!
    Jose_L, Jan 2024
    Terrific Tour. Have been to Tokyo from the United States twice before. Decided to do a different kind of tour and it paid off big! Michael was a wonderful guide and great driver. Felt very safe around the whole city while driving. Highly recommend, specially if you like or love cars!!
    Response from Host, Jan 2024
    It was a pleasure guiding you around and one day I hope to see your RWB :)

    TishaLei_P, Jan 2024
    We had a great time! This activity was for our 12 year old who is a huge GTA fan and has been showing growing interest in import cars. Michael communicated pick-up location and time, and was early to pick us up. The drive to Daikoku was filled with history, fun facts and other interesting Japan resident insight. Michaels car was also very comfortable for about an hour drive which included traffic. We went on a Tuesday (12/26), and while the weekends and holidays are known to have a larger turn out, we were able to see quite a few cars and people out that night. Thank you, Michael! We had a great time and will be sure to book with you again when we are back in Japan.
    Response from Host, Jan 2024
    Thank you! I had a great time showing you guys around and I am glad that your son enjoyed it!
    Must do tour for car enthusiasts
    Fernando_C, Jan 2024
    Amazing welcome from Michael. Such a kind person, ready to welcome and provide to special need from my 10yr old son who joined the. Experience starts with sharp pickup with a true JDM. Michael has deep knowledge about all different cars, from modified JDMs to European classics. A must do JDM experience. Tour highly recommendable for every car enthusiast!
    Response from Host, Jan 2024
    Thank you Fernando! It was a pleasure to host you and your son and swap car stories. It was a great night!
    Deep dive into Japanese car culture with car guy.
    Ruben_J, Dec 2023
    Definitely worth the time to take this tour for any car enthusiast! Michael, being an absolute car nut, was very knowledgeable about all the meetup spots, and surrounding areas he showed us. From tuner cars, to supercars, to lowriders, he knew where and when to find them. Daikoku Parking Area will have loads of cars even on a slow night and driving around on the C1 loop was like being in many of the video games I've played over the years. Michael, this was a highlight of my trip! Thanks for the great time and conversation!
    Response from Host, Dec 2023
    Lot's of fun having another car nut in the car! That is what makes for great car peanut butter :) !
    Real enthusiast, who cares about your experience
    Boyd_J, Dec 2023
    Really enjoyed the night. Could instantly tell that Michael was a real car enthusiast. He had plenty of stories to tell and made sure to make sure we didn't miss anything. Was also glad that Michael allowed time for own exploration of Daikoku, once we were there, with the occasional check up to make sure we were enjoying/kept informed of what was going on. Would gladly do another tour with Michael in the future
    Response from Host, Dec 2023
    Thanks! I am glad that you enjoyed your trip and the cars :)
    Expérience unique
