It rained on our tour, but that didn't stop Satar from guiding us around the wet streets of Tokyo in our Pokemon onesies! Although we got wetter than anticipated, it was a blast getting to experience driving on the opposite side of the road and avoiding the pedestrians! 😂
Did the classic of forgetting to get an international driver's permit before coming. Company was very accommodating and in the end let me ride tandem on a bike. Big shoutout to Ken for being such a good driver. Heavily recommend this company!
Lots of fun! Carts were really fast.
Sounds like you made the most of the ride! We’re happy to hear you had so much fun and enjoyed the performance of the karts. There’s nothing quite like cruising through Tokyo with a smile on your face. Kartzilla Discovery Japan

Epic experience led by Satar! Tour was a good allocation of time and perfect for exploring old town Tokyo!

It’s wonderful to hear that you had such a fun and memorable experience with us. Satar will be very happy to know that his guidance helped make the tour even more enjoyable. A good atmosphere on the road really makes the experience special from beginning to end. Kartzilla Discovery Japan
Unbeatable views, especially at night. Can't recommend enough!
Tokyo at night really has a completely different atmosphere, and it’s wonderful to hear the views stood out so much during your ride. Thank you for the recommendation. Experiences like these are even more special when the city lights come alive around you. Kartzilla Discovery Japan
The ride through Oldtown was the best experience of my Tokyo stop during my visit to Japan. I was nervous before coming, but left feeling so comfortable. For the experience, the price was worth it as you get a really good amount of time to digest all the sites. Satar was my guide and he was pleasant from beginning to end; making the vibes friendly but also fun. Cannot recommend it enough.
It’s really nice to hear how much the Old Town tour stood out during your time in Japan. A lot of guests feel nervous before driving in Tokyo for the first time, so it’s great that you quickly became comfortable and could fully enjoy the experience. The longer ride really gives you time to settle in and take in the atmosphere of the city instead of feeling rushed. Sounds like Satar helped create the right balance of relaxed, friendly, and fun throughout the tour. Kartzilla Discovery Japan
