The Experience

What your day looks like

One of the most unique activities in Tokyo! Get dressed up in costumes and explore Akihabara, Tokyo's mange and anime mecca. Your local guide will lead you along your route, so there is no need to worry about losing your way. This guided go-kart rental is highly recommended for the first time visitors to Japan who want to see the city from a different perspective. The facility has costumes that you can borrow for no charge; however, you can buy some inexpensive costumes at the nearby Don Quixote shop if you would like your own. All karts are for one person. There are no multi-person karts. The guide will drive in a separate kart. Please note: it is not recommend you park the kart anywhere because there are not many parking lots in Tokyo, and the supplier does not take any responsibility if any accidents happen to the kart.
