Outstanding!

We’re a family of four who thoroughly enjoyed our street kart experience in Tokyo; the course was smooth, the karts were in great shape, and Sam was awesome—friendly, patient, and full of energy, making the whole ride fun and easy for all of us. A MUST do….. we felt like we went everywhere in Tokyo. Easy to find, easy to do - plan on arriving 20 min early to get ready.
