Take a stroll through Nakamise Shopping Street, lined with traditional shops selling souvenirs and delectable street food.

For a taste of modern Japan, head to Shibuya Crossing, one of the world’s busiest intersections. Marvel at the neon lights and towering billboards while sipping on matcha lattes from trendy cafes. Don’t miss out on exploring Harajuku, known for its quirky fashion trends and vibrant street art.

Kyoto: The Cultural Heartland

Known for its preserved ancient architecture and breathtaking temples, Kyoto offers a glimpse into Japan’s rich cultural heritage. Begin your exploration at Kinkaku-ji Temple, also known as the Golden Pavilion, which showcases stunning Zen Buddhist architecture surrounded by picturesque gardens.

Next, visit Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine famous for its thousands of vibrant red torii gates that lead up to Mount Inari. This sacred site offers visitors an otherworldly experience amidst nature and spirituality.

To truly immerse yourself in Japanese culture, participate in a tea ceremony or try on a traditional kimono in the historic district of Gion. Don’t forget to visit the magnificent Kiyomizu-dera Temple, known for its wooden terrace that offers breathtaking panoramic views of Kyoto.

Hiroshima: A Tale of Resilience and Peace

Hiroshima, forever marked by the devastating events of World War II, has transformed itself into a city dedicated to promoting peace and understanding. Begin your visit at the Peace Memorial Park, which serves as a poignant reminder of the city’s tragic past. Explore the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum to gain a deeper understanding of the atomic bombing and its aftermath.

A short ferry ride away from Hiroshima is Miyajima Island, home to the iconic Itsukushima Shrine with its famous floating torii gate. Take a leisurely stroll through the island’s picturesque streets and encounter friendly deer that roam freely.

Nara: Where Nature Meets History

Nara, Japan’s first capital, is renowned for its historical treasures and friendly deer population. Start your journey at Nara Park, where you can interact with hundreds of deer considered sacred messengers in Japanese culture.

Visit Todai-ji Temple, home to one of Japan’s largest bronze statues of Buddha. The temple complex also houses several other national treasures that showcase the exquisite craftsmanship from centuries past.

For a serene escape from city life, head to Yoshino-Kumano National Park and marvel at its lush greenery and stunning waterfalls. Take a peaceful hike along one of its many trails while immersing yourself in nature’s beauty.

In conclusion, Japan offers an incredible array of cultural experiences that capture both tradition and innovation.

User's voice, unforgettable memories.

It's one of the funniest things we have ever done in our life, we loved the course, it is safe, people are very respectful of the GoKarts on the street, and pedestrians are always amazed of seeing Street Kart on the street. We loved it so much, our tour guides where very attentive and always aware of everything. If you are in Japan and love Karting, you have to do this, it's something you will miss so much.

Wow!!! This was such an amazing experience. I can't put words to how fun this truly was. Best time I had in Japan hands down!!! such an epic experience. I'll never forget this!! Huge thanks to Street Kart and the staff that helped make this happen!!For anyone in the USA, if you're thinking of doing this, stop thinking and start booking. To get your international drivers license/permit, just go to AAA and pay $20 plus passport pictures and in 15 minutes you're a licensed international driver!

I expected to have fun, but it was so much more than that. This was an unforgettable experience. We went on Friday, it's now Sunday and we are STILL talking about how much fun we had!! The employees were so nice, fun and helpful. If you are near Tokyo, Osaka, Okinawa or planning on visiting, this is a MUST DO! We did the night drive, but will be doing the daytime drive next time....YES! We are going again! Definitely money well spent . Thank you for a great experience.

High Speed Karts!

One of the best highlight of my Japan trip! Before going for this, I was worried that it might be dangerous, but on the contrary I felt really safe on the road. With us dressed up in Mario on the go kart on the streets with other vehicles, at a speed of 60km/hr, it was definitely a exhilarating experience for me.Given a chance, I would definitely go again for my next trip.

This is Japan!!

Our last day after 8 months in japan we did this and wow! What a send off! An incredible experience with non stop laughs as we go-karted our way around the city, would highly recommend it to anyone who likes to have a bit of crazy fun while dressed up. Definately one of the best experiences in japan and our guide was awesome! I would give it more than 5 stars if I could!

Real Life SuperHero Go-Karting is coming true

SO much fun! A great and unique way to enjoy City! Our guide was awesome and made sure we all stayed together throughout the drive. Plenty of stops for pics and rests along the way. Our guide even took group photos and shared them with us! HIGHLY recommended! A "don't miss" during your Tokyo, Osaka, Okinawa visit!

Great Service!

Had a great time driving around Tyoko and a wonderful tour the city, there is something for everyone great views of the city, a cool look into the cosplay world, and a lot of positive reactions from the people on street. There was a good selection of characters to choose from, the staff was delightful and helpful the carts are in good running shape all around good time we will be doing this again thank you Street Kart for a good day and good service.

No words can describe how awesome this experience was! This is the best way to see the city! Our guide Ryou-san was extremely nice and took some amazing pictures for us.

Felt like celebrities

This was such an amazing activity! I've been living in Japan for almost 3 years and had never had the chance to do it. During my last month here we decided we had to make a go of it. I'm so glad we did! We were able to drive around the city, seeing the sites from a whole new perspective.

Street go-karting is back in Tokyo – here's how to get behind the wheel

You can once again take go-kart tours of Tokyo – some even let you dress up as your favourite character

Now that travel has returned to some sort of normalcy , Tokyo’s hottest attractions have never been busier. Pre-pandemic, one of the most popular tourist activities was the coveted ‘Mario Kart’ tour, which ran into some legal trouble back in 2020. While that original tour is no longer available, you can still dress up and tour the city in your very own kart. 

Interested? Here’s a breakdown of the available tour options and what you’ll need to get behind the wheel.

English-language go-karting tours

• Street Go Karting Experience in Akihabara via Rakuten Travel Experiences : ¥5,500 for a one-hour rental and guide (¥10,000 for two hours)
• Street Go Karting Experience in Akihabara via Klook : ¥7,200 for a one-hour tour with guide (¥13,217 for two hours)
• Street Kart Shibuya : ¥14,000 for one hour 
• Monkey Kart Shinjuku to Shibuya : ¥14,000 for one hour
• Private kart experience in Shinjuku metropolitan area via Viator : from ¥19,000 for one hour

What you need

First and foremost, you will need to be at least 18 years of age and have an international driving permit (presented with your home driving licence and passport) or a Japanese driver's licence (more on attaining your Japanese licence here ). Other accepted documents include a Sofa licence for those part of the US military forces in Japan or a driver's licence issued in one of the following countries with translation: Belgium, Germany, France, Monaco, Switzerland or Taiwan. 

Want to dress the part? You’ll have to check with each individual tour to see if costumes are available. Otherwise, you can purchase outfits and accessories at shops like Hands and Don Quijote before your tour. Most tour companies should also provide face masks, shades and helmets for additional protection.

Due to popularity, these tours can get booked up quite quickly. We suggest reserving a tour well in advance to secure yourself a spot. 

Safety precautions

While you’ll be following a guide on your tour, it’s still good to stay aware of your surroundings and keep in mind some safety tips. Firstly, remember that we drive on the left-hand side in Japan. Additionally, racing is not allowed and you must dress appropriately (high heels, sandals and long skirts are not allowed).

The tours take you through Tokyo's streets, which can get quite busy. The go-karts also sit quite a lot lower than your average vehicle. But so long as you drive responsibly and follow your guide carefully, you should have an unforgettable tour of Tokyo.

Also, the tour guides are all awesome. They will make you feel comfortable. Shoutout to Izzy and Ken. Also don't worry about not being able to take pictures. They've got you covered at no extra cost.
