It was just so much fun. Seeing people look and take photos while you’re having so much fun. Our guide Vivian was great too. You go quite fast at times but it always felt safe, even when a van pulled into the gap between the kart in front of me. If you book through a third party, it’s unlikely you’ll pay insurance which is an extra $1000 in cash, so just be aware. They take lots of photos and these are available at the end, no extra charge. Honestly, it was just so much fun and a great way to see Osaka.

Are you kidding me?!?! Karting through the streets of Osaka at night? This was a blast!! Fantastic experience and great crew. Safety was top priority and keeping the group size to 6 riders made it more enjoyable. Our guide was super attentive and took some amazing photos he shared with us afterwards. One of our favorite highlights during our trip to Japan!!

This is a must do to see and explore Osaka at night. My wife was a little nervous driving around the busy streets but Ginga made it so easy. He properly explained all safety guidelines and procedures and ensured we never split up or got lost. A native to Osaka, he was able to teach us about a few spots on the drive and never ever left anyone behind. He was the lead car and always ensure the entire group was close and safe. He easily guided us with hand gestures on the road and always had the biggest smile on his face. We are so thankful Ginga was our guide and would recommend everyone request a tour with him! His English was perfect as well. Thank you Ginga for a memorable experience one we will remember forever. Ginga was awesome and this was a PERFECT was to explore Osaka at night.
