Had a fun time! We had 15 people in our tour group. checked out an Izakaya and our host ordered different food and drinks for us. Was good trying out different yakatoris. We then did a sake tasting at our second spot, and that was interesting tasting them all. Then we ended the night at a small karaoke bar. My friend and I had to cut it short, but we had a good time.

Had a few drinks, good food, and nice conversations—what more could you want? Our tour guide Abrar led us through the evening very professionally and always provided information about the dishes, the locations, and their historical background. It was good, a lot of fun, and I would recommend it 😊

absolutely loved it! I wanna do it again ! Staff super cool and friendly , they offer u a go pro for a little extra charge if you want record your driving in a video, I took my own n borrowed their tripod clip thing. The guide takes pics n video of you through out. It’s very safe. And you go through the scramble a couple of times . it’s a really good tour we drove past Takeshita street and Parco mall (which I hadn’t seen before) so that was nice. The look on pedestrian faces and pple waving to you makes you feel like a super cool person! loved every second from check in through to the end professional friendly staff. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Aki was an amazing food tour guide.Our grouo had just 4 people but aki ensured that he attended to every person's need.The food tour felt value for money since we went to so many places,and it was too much food.Besides food aki took us to hidden alleys if Shinjuku,have us overview of Shinjuku history.At the end he even accompanied me to see Shinjuku cat and Godzilla head.

Such an amazing and unforgettable experience in Tokyo! This was my first time driving a space-themed electric go-kart, and it was absolutely incredible! The futuristic moon rover design was super cool and definitely turned heads on the streets of Tokyo! The 90-minute experience was totally worth it. The route was well planned, and driving through Tokyo at night with all the beautiful city lights was truly magical. There were so many great opportunities to take amazing photos! The staff were extremely friendly, professional, and helpful. They explained everything clearly before we started and made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe throughout the ride. The karts were clean, easy to drive, and so much fun! Everything was well organized, and the whole experience exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting Tokyo! It’s perfect for couples, friends, or anyone looking for something unique and exciting. Definitely one of the highlights of my trip!
