    Very Personal and Educating

    Corinne_V, May 2024
    I had a wonderful time, the tour felt very personable and I could relate very well with my guide, he was also very knowledgeable and educated me on car culture in Japan.

    It was a bust

    Lindsey_S, Mar 2024
    We got the ride that took us to the Daikoku area for cars but they were closed off by the police so it was a busy. We got a partial refund but honestly you'd figure that the host would have back up plans ready to go considering all the people he knows in the industry. Even a short tour of the city to make up for the bust would've been great but oh well. It seems like it'll always be a risk to go so if I did it again I'd instead go for the tour to see the Tokyo race track and the Daikoku tour included so you can at least enjoy one of the tours if another doesn't work out. Bummer...

    Very lousy experience

    Wesam_S, Jan 2024
    I hate leaving bad reviews but people should know what they're getting into when they are looking at taking this tour. To begin with, our tour guide smelled really bad. We had the windows cracked a bit but even that didn't help. He was also incredibly dull and boring. I did my best to try to speak with him about every subject imaginable and all I got were short responses followed by very awkward stretches of silence. We were indeed driven in a drift car but don't think you'll be drifting or even speeding. Also be ready to get your ears rattled as the exhaust was insanely loud. When we finally got to Daikoku, the scene was great but we saw many tourists just walking around on their own and we immediately realized our mistake: you don't need a tour guide to get to this place! Our tour guide had us take nearly 1 hours worth of trains to get to the point where he was to pick us up which was onerous but understandable since the tour indicates that they will drop you off at your hotel after the tour is over. Except he didn't. He dropped us off several blocks from our hotel and seemed like he wasn't interested in taking us all the way back. This was a good amount of money for a lousy experience. Don't make our mistake and book this tour. Do your research, find out when the drift cars will be at Daikoku, and take some trains and Ubers to get there and then walk around.

    The best daikoku guide

    Raymond_D, Jan 2024
    Great night out, Clemente was a great tour guide. Has a lot of knowledge of the jdm scene and was very easy going and pleasant during the tour. Was nice going to daikoku in a chaser and parking up with the rest of the cars. 10/10

    Clément était au top!...

    Laeticia_M, Apr 2025
    Clément était au top! Nous avons adoré. Activité à faire si vous êtes de passage à Tokyo, nous en avons garder un super souvenir.

    Je recommande à 1000% !

    Winnie_L, May 2024
    Nous nous sommes rejoint à une station avec Clément (l'organisateur). Il nous attendait avec sa magnifique JZX. Puis direction Daikoku ! Pendant le trajet, il nous a partagé des anecdotes sur le Japon, sur sa passion pour le drift... Puis nous sommes arrivés à Daikoku et nous sommes de suite plongé dans l'ambiance. Nous avons vu des voitures exceptionnelles et Clément reste avec nous pour partager ce moment et pour échanger sur les véhicules ( mon compagnon étant passionné, il était ravi d'être avec quelqu'un d'aussi passionné que lui). Pour le retour, nous avons été déposé devant notre hôtel, c'est top ! Je recommande vivement cette activité !
