5.00A must do activity if you are popping to Osaka! The tour guide took so many amazing pictures and made sure we were safe when driving through the streets of Osaka at night. Why go to tourist attractions when you can become one by dressing up as your favourite character and hitting the streets in Go karts😂
The karts were a real fun...

5.00The karts were a real fun way to see the streets of Osaka! It draws a lot of attention but most people don’t mind. Recommend going at night time, less traffic and the lights are unforgettable!

5.00We had the BEST time on the go-kart tour through the streets of Osaka! From start to finish, it was pure fun and adrenaline. Driving through the city in costume, weaving past famous landmarks and local neighborhoods, made us feel like celebrities—people were waving, taking pictures, and cheering us on the whole way. We were a little anxious at first but the staff were fantastic: super friendly, helpful, and made sure we were safe and comfortable before hitting the road. They even took photos for us along the route so we could focus on enjoying the ride. The karts were easy to drive, and the pace was perfect for taking in the sights while still feeling exciting. It was such a unique way to see the city, and we couldn’t stop smiling the entire time. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience Osaka in a totally unforgettable (and slightly wild) way. I’d do it again in a heartbeat!
