Top Tokyo Car Tours - page 3

Fumi was an excellent guide. We learned about the auction, what all the different people were doing, the fishing technique, the processing of the fish, the supply chain process, and that was just the beginning. We learned about many other Japanese foods and went to the market after the breakfast, where he taught us about knives, green tea, even earthquake building innovations. It would have been a huge mistake to have gone without him. I occasionally overheard some other guides and was so happy we had Fumi, because he was trying so much harder to give us a good experience. He even had visual aids and handouts we got to keep, which we did refer to later. It was a rich experience that exceeded my expectations, and special to have a human connection to Tokyo as well.

Amazing experience from start to finish! The cars were clean, well maintained, and I felt safe throughout the entire tour. A special thank you to Tyron and Daniel, who were both friendly, welcoming, and helped make the experience so enjoyable. They were great to chat with, kept the atmosphere fun, and made everyone feel included. If you’re looking for a unique way to experience Tokyo’s car culture, I highly recommend this tour. A memorable night and definitely one of the highlights of my trip!

This was a super fun experience. Driving through Tokyo at night was so exciting, the lights and energy in Shibuya was worth seeing by itself. The staff were great and had excellent customer service. I felt driving in the cart was safe. I'm from the states so I was nervous about driving on the opposite side of the road, but it was very easy to follow the lead car. when our group did get separated at stop lights, a couple of times, the lead car waited for everyone to get back together. I would try this again.

We were picked up from in front of the hotel, which was really convenient. We ended up cruising over with about a half dozen dope cars from the initial stop, and got to Diakoku early enough that we got to see everything before the cops ultimately showed up; going early was the right move. We went on a Saturday, which was busy in a good way.

The whole experience was great. Jay was a great host and driver he showed us around and told us more about the areas. The tour itself was great with 3 stops. We were lucky to have a good group o with another 2 passengers it would’ve been nice to have an option to private book it or have a party per car but understand logistics and costs but this is me being picky. The car itself was great very comfortable.

I had a great experience on the tour. My driver Maz took me to all the biggest attractions in Tokyo and encouraged me to take my time and soak them in. Maz knew where to get the best shots so i now have many beautiful pictures to remember the trip by. The tour was customizable and Maz took me to places i asked to go and steered away from places i had been before. Maz was very pleasant and knowledgable about the city and it sites.

Itinerary was carefully planned and it did not feel rushed at all. I am truly sorry but I forgot the Japanese name of the tour guide (I remember her English name, which I believe is Grace), she is not only very knowledgeable, but also very sweet and kind. Overall a very fun trip even when you’re going solo!

When I registered for this activity I wasn’t certain that I would get to do what I hoped to do. Specifically, I wanted some insight into Japanese car culture. I hoped to go to the historic Daikoku car gathering in Yokohama (you need to arrive in a car) and to APIT Autobacs and perhaps Liberty Walk…not just some lame 5 persons in a car go cart drive around Tokyo!!! But I took the risk and signed up. This turned out to be the PERFECT Japanese car experience. My guide was a true car enthusiast, very well informed and sophisticated, spoke perfect English, and picked me up in an impeccable 02 Nissan Sylvia GT-R modified to the specs of a car in TFAF movies. He and I spent 4 hours doing all the things I’d hoped to…and there were no other tourists in the car with us. We drove out to Yokohama across the Rainbow Bridge and entered the epicenter of Tokyo car culture, Saturday night at Daikoku. There were hundreds of JDM cars to look at and talk about for hours . For me, it was a peak life experience! We then wet to the flagship APIT AUTOBACS location an I got to wander and ship the myriad items they stock. But the highlight for me was learning about and having explained to me the fundamental history, stories and concepts of this unique car culture by someone who comes from it. So fascinating, so nuanced, and just what I had dreamed it would be. I would place this at the very top of any planned tour experience I have ever done and cannot recommend T and his brother (in a 2013 Subaru WRX STI) highly enough. Don’t even think about signing up with any one else!!!
