The day was awesome, it felt like I was in a Mario kart game driving through the streets of Tokyo haha. The karts got quite a bit of speed up too, and the 90 minutes went by so quickly. The staff and organisation were fantastic, they made sure safety was first and out on the road were with you to support if needed. Well done for a great company providing a fantastic experience in Tokyo ❤️

It was great. I loved driving around & the guys were great to make sure we didn't go of course. They waited for us every time we were caught at the lights. Everything was offered beforehand & the instructions were very good.
