Shibuya Street Go-Kart Tour by Original Street Kart Shibuya Annex

Finally the chance to go-karting in Tokyo. What a fun and thrilling experience. Registration was smooth. Just remember to bring along your passport and International Driver’s License (booklet obtained from your own country). After registration, choose your costumes. Took the evening time slot, perfect timing with the city lights. After changing into the costume, came the 8mins safety video. After which, was introduction to the kart itself. Guide was Newaz. He did a wonderful job keeping it fun as well as safe. Took photos of my group (just the 3 of us). Smaller group, easier to manage. Went through Shibuya, Harajuku and Omotesando. Roads were quite busy (a Saturday evening time slot). But the drivers and riders were quite accomodating to us karters. Would definitely recommend to try out, especially for first time street-karters like myself. So what are you waiting for? Go give it a go.

This was such a fun experience. We were a group of 6 and booked the 1715 time slot for an hour drive. We had Joe as our leader and he was great!!! He strives to get drivers to get as close as possible when forming 2 lines so get close like us in the pics. If you’ve had motorcycle lessons before and understand formations while coming to a stop then this will be a breeze. You will see other Street Kart groups driving by you so give them a quick wave. We booked from the Street Kart Annex location in Shibuya. From what I hear it is their newest location. You get to choose a costume if you’d like and then watch a quick safety video before heading out. Highlly recommend to try out while you are in Japan. There are a lot of people taking pictures of you out there so smile 😁

WOW … this was fun!! Booked the 7pm time slot as wanted to witness Shubuya crossing at night. Definitely a bucket list experience and our very informative, entertaining and cool cat guide XAVIAN was fantastic. He took plenty of pictures of the group while on the route and made us feel very safe weaving through the Tokyo traffic with his clear instructions. Don’t miss this experience if you are staying in Tokyo and hopefully you get XAVIAN as your guide.

This was arguably one of my favorite experiences in Tokyo. The go karting in itself is unique but our tour guide Xavian made the experience unforgettable. You’ll get the opportunity to ride through the streets of Shibuya with locals and tourists alike cheering you on. Xavian was provided explicit instructions before and during our ride to ensure clarity and safety. He constantly checked in during the ride to make sure everyone was safe and having a good time. He took incredible photos of each individual and the group (see attached) free of charge! Oh and he has a pleasant surprise in store for you at the end of your tour :). This is a must-do while in Tokyo and it is an incredible experience experience regardless of what time of the time you’re able to do it. Yes, there are some skeptical reviews out there, but why don’t you try it and form your own opinion? 10/10 would recommend

great experience and definitely recommend doing it! Our instructor was Xavian and he made sure everyone was safe throughout the ride!

we had fun. this was our last event of our trip and it was really cool. my husband and I enjoyed it very much! can’t wait to come back Xavian was our guide!! thank you!

Honestly, this was the best experience I’ve had since arriving in Japan with my husband! when booking we paid $259 USD and it was worth every penny! we also got our international drivers license in advance. When we arrived to check in the staff were so friendly and the center was colorful and bright. Xavian was our guide for the night and he did such a great job! he frequently used hand signals, yelled out clear instructions and was alert the entire time! you can tell he was excited to be our guide and made the experience unforgettable! Xavian was awesome!!

honestly had the best time ticking of a childhood buck list item for me and highlight of my first time to Japan ! it was raining but I think that added to the experience and it was still made so much fun by xavian and the whole team. the rain didn’t bother me and they gave you a full body poncho that kept all my clothes dry!

Unique experience, I highly recommend it! The staff provided excellent support during preparation, and then Stanley was our guide and he was fantastic! Very understanding, kind, and super friendly! A big thank you again!

Everything was excellent. Our guide was friendly, explained everything very well, was attentive to us throughout the tour, and was very charismatic. He told us a little about some of the places we passed. He took many photos of us at almost every stop and was always mindful of our safety. 100% recommended! 🙌🏼⭐️
