Amazing experience! Don’t think twice! Book it

5.00Such an amazing experience. Michael picked us up in his Lexus LS460. It was very clean, comfortable and had a lot of power to it. You could feel the horsepower when he put his foot down on the highway. Michael is such a nice humble guy! He has a great passion for cars. We enjoyed sharing our knowledge on cars and speaking about our passion! He was very knowledgeable and easy going. At no point did the drive to Daikoku or Autobacs feel boring or awkward. Arrived at Autobacs and did some great shopping. There was so much to see but Michael was lenient with us and didn’t rush us at all. Then off to the car meet Daikoku. We went on a Tuesday and there was a great vibe. We thought there might not be a good turnout but saw lots of amazing cars ranging from muscle, to JDM. It was a great experience and I highly recommend Michael tour. Other Competing businesses may use other heavily modified cars that might be more appealing, but we noticed they were not as friendly and passionate as Michael. They did not talk to their customers much. We’re glad we booked with Michael.
Mori was great! Lots of fun

5.00If you’re into JDM car culture, take this ride along. My teenkids had a blast and Saturday night is supposed to be the best night. Definitely unique.
Great Tour

5.00This tour provided a really valuable opportunity to learn not only about JDM cars, but also the history and culture of Tokyo and its surrounding areas. All credit goes to Mori, a knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide. Would suggest to anyone who’s interested.
Would 100% recommend!

5.00I brought my four young adult sons to Japan. They are totally into the JDM scene. It did not disappoint. I think one of their favorite things was our driver Michael. He could talk cars all day long and so did my boys. I loved sitting in the back seat and hearing them talk. He was laid back to let them tell him what they wanted out of the tour and he delivered.
Highly recommend!

5.00My teenage son is a car enthusiast, and this experience was top-notch! Our guide, Michael, was a wealth of information about more than just cars. Seeing all of the different cars at Daikoku was super impressive. We went on a Saturday night, which is said to be the busiest night of the week. The Lexus that we rode in was luxurious and very comfortable AND FAST (which I loved)! I felt very safe while riding in the car and while walking outside to look at all of the cars. We made a quick stop at A Pit, which is a huge automotive store. Some of the cars from Daikoku were there as well, so it was neat to see them again. The meeting point was easy to get to since we rode a taxi from our hotel in Tsukiji. Be mindful of the after-work traffic, and factor in extra time to get there. We did notice that there were some visitors riding in the cool looking cars from Daikoku. My son was very interested in that, but I might be more skeptical. This company that we went with was excellent, and I would highly recommend them!
