      We did the Asakusa route on the last day of our trip and it was a great way to end the holiday. We really enjoyed driving the karts and seeing the sights. Our guide Marco was fantastic and really lovely.

      Review of Recent Event Experience
      I recently attended an event and wanted to share my experience. At the start of the event, the staff was exceptionally friendly and welcoming. They took the time to explain the process and answered all of my questions, which set a positive tone for the day. However, my experience took a turn for the worse after I arrived extremely early, as promised, to secure a prime spot for the best photos and videos. Despite my early arrival and the assurance that I would be positioned at the front, a couple who joined us later was prioritized for better positioning. After just 10 minutes on the road, I was asked by Usama to move to the back to accommodate them. This request was quite upsetting and frustrating. I had paid for the same service and had been assured a great spot for my photos and videos. The decision to move me to the back in favor of the couple meant that my photos would likely not be as good as I had anticipated. It felt like my experience was undervalued compared to the couple's, despite my early arrival and the assurances I had received. While the staff Usama initial approach was commendable, this situation significantly impacted my overall experience. I hope future events will ensure that all attendees receive equal consideration and that such issues can be avoided.

      Amazing! DO THIS!! We both did a nighttime tour and despite my nerves, it was so amazing. Our guide GY was so cool. Explained things so clearly and looked after us. He made this tour! Dressing up in a costume was great and trust me you won’t get hot/overheat. They give you gloves, glasses and beanies that are all freshly cleaned or washed. Do yourself a favour - it was truly sooooo good! Ask for GY!

      Open road by the Bay
      This experience cannot be beaten! Driving a go cart on the streets of Tokyo legally and actively taking in the sights and energy from the pedestrians, amazing. The instructors, the office staff, everyone, were relaxed, fun and passionate about what they do. I would recommend to anyone who visits Tokyo, we did both Tokyo Bay and Shibuya, give them both a go, they are both great, but they are also very different.

      Streetkart is amazing
      We had a blast with our guide GY and the course that included the Rainbow Bridge, Tokyo Tower, and Odaiba! I was initially torn between this course and the one in Shibuya, but I am so happy I went with this one as it is longer and going fast along/around the rainbow bridge was so much fun! We still had plenty of photo opportunities at stop lights. GY made sure to rotate throughout the duration of the course so that each pair was able to be at the front, and he also took many photos of everyone. The costumes were also a nice touch! Our guide was fun and made sure we were safe at all times. I highly recommended Streetkart Tokyo Bay.

      Absolutely fantastic experience today with Street Kart. Great fun riding around the sites of Tokyo with my friends on a kart. Benny the guide was superb ensuring we stayed together as a group when we came to traffic lights. Would highly recommend this as an experience in Tokyo.

      AMAZING EXPERIENCE
      Personally, I had my reservations about this because I didn't know how easy or hard it would be. Turns out it was pretty easy and if you're an adrenaline junkie that likes speed, this is most definitley for you and at the same time you get to see many cool shopping centers and popular tourist destinations. There were some minor malfunctions with the karts like with my friends kart that had loose screws but other than that, it was well worth the experience.

      Such an amazing experience!
      Got to see sites that we didn't have time for during our trip which was convenient. The driving instructor made us feel safe and waited for those who didn't make the green light. If you're nervous they let you drive the closest to them with the best drivers toward to the back of the group. It was such a good experience doing it at night and feeling the wind in my hair!! I own a convertible back home so it was nice to have that same feeling again overseas. Highly recommend!

    Fantastic experience must do ! We booked this for 4 adults on the 4pm trip across the Rainbow Bridge in early June. We’ve loved Tokyo however this has been the highlight so far, the staff were extremely welcoming and fun, Clarence our guide was great and took some great pics of the 6 people on the tour, while also ensuring everyone was safe, loved this experience!!

    Definitely the highlight of Tokyo! Thank you to Mai for making our go kart experience one not to forget. Mai’s energy was infectious and she effortlessly put any of our worries at ease! It was really well coordinated that we travelled in a specific order which was changed up regularly so we could take turns being in the front line. Mai even took photos for us too! Only thing I’d recommend is to make sure you bring a wet wipe or something to clean your face afterwards. Some dirt from the road / tyres gets flicked up on your face over the 2 hours.

    My sister and I had the best two hours during this tour. Everyone was really friendly when we walked in to sign in and they were all really helpful. We had Dylan as our guide and he took really good care of us making sure that we were all ok and happy throughout the tour. He took some great group photos of us and at the end gave us a copy of one of the pictures. The staff made sure that we all had sun cream and offered us some if we didn’t have any (we were out in 30+ degree heat). We enjoyed driving around Tokyo and seeing things you may not have seen on foot. Definitely would recommend this tour via the Tokyo Bay shop to anyone who is thinking about doing it! Thanks all 🤙🏼.

    Johnny was absolutely phenomenal! He went a little faster, reaching up to 75km p/h! He was so friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. This was 100% worth every penny & would absolutely recommend going for the 1.5 to 2 hour tour - we even wanted to go for longer!
    This will probably be the highlight of our Japan trip.

    Was a great ride through the city, making two passes on the lower deck of the rainbow bridge (the spiral entrance/exit ramps were better than being on the bridge itself in my opinion!) and passing beside the Tokyo Tower in the evening for some great sights. Our guide Andy did a fantastic job of keeping track of the traffic as well as all of the guests, big props to him.

    If you are considering Street Kart Tokyo, I would recommend trying to do it with a group of known friends as opposed to a random group, as varied driving skills in a group of strangers can cause a bit of stress if you are behind someone who is not keeping up with the group or paying attention to the hand signals. However, if you can't get a good group together, it is still worthwhile just for the experience.

    Another tip that I heard before I went and it definitely held true is that you need to be prepared to be inhale a lot of exhaust during your trip, especially if you're on the right side when making two lines at stops, as the exhausts face the right. Some of the karts seem to run a bit cleaner than others (or maybe some people just remembered to fully release the gas pedal), so your experience may vary.

    Hesitant to book at first as I was worried about upsetting locals - foreigners driving go karts on their roads and all. But many of the locals waved and smiled as we rode along the Tokyo Bay course which relieved my anxiety. Our guide, Benny, was absolutely great - he ensured the safety of everybody in the group and made us all laugh and smile from start to finish. If you’re having any doubts about trying out Street Kart, you can rest those worries. Everyone at the company seemed great and the experience is one of the highlights of the three trips I’ve now taken to Japan. If you end up with Benny you’ll be in for a blast of a time. Enjoy!

    P.S. If you tour during the winter, dress warm. Extra socks (or wool socks), gloves, something to cover your head / ears if you’re not wearing a costume or mask, and base layers for your shirts and pants if you don’t want your body feeling chilly. It was cold - and the go karts definitely won’t shield you from the wind. Take care!

    We arrived very early as it was our first day in Japan and we were unsure of the train system, location etc. We were not allowed to wait in the premises and had to find shade outside (no where to sit) on a very hot day. There are no shops or other activities near the Tokyo Bay Street Karts shop.
    Once our booked time arrived, we were rushed to chose a costume & watch safety video, use the one toilet etc as there were so many people booked at the same time!
    Once we were in the karts and on the streets everything went very smoothly - it was a blast!!
    Our lead driver/instructor Johnny was very good with communication. Highly recommend this activity but the business owners need to address/improve the waiting area facilities as they have a lot of customers paying NZ$200 each for the experience.

    You won't get a better experience in Tokyo and possibly beyond!
    Team in the shop are incredibly friendly and give you all the information you need. Guy is a larger than life character and really generous with his conversation and spirit.
    The pre-experience safety information was simple but informative.
    Lebby was our driver. The tour was the best fun but somehow she made it better.
    The karts are real karts, so no power steering, you are low to the ground and there is no suspension but this all adds to the experience.
    It lasted a good 2 hours with lots of sights to see, lots of waving at the locals and lots of photos.
    Normally you would be charged a fortune for a souvenir photos but all of the photos taken are air dropped or can be accessed via a google and you even get a free printed photo.
    The team couldn't do enough, there was no hard sell (which is refreshing) and if you only do one thing in Tokyo then it is this!
