“Imagine driving a go kart through Tokyo of all places on the street doing a wonderful tour. My family and I did this and Gyula was our tour guide. This was sooooo much fun and safe. We all felt safe and Gyula communicated very well on the road. We were so happy we were able to share this experience, and this is the one to do. I know there are others in Tokyo but this is by far the best one considering the traffic and the sites.”

It was a comfortable atmosphere with some dope scenery and some laughs in-between to lighten the mood. My tour guide was Gus and his level of concern for my safety was exceptional as he checked periodically to make sure I was always in his view and I myself was ok.

Learn traditional manga in Shibuya with a pro artist and interpreter. Create a panel in 150 minutes and take home your laminated keepsake.

The boys are so proud of the artwork they created and want to frame it to show off for years to come. The only challenge was not the guides fault. There was a political rally happening at Shibuya crossing and that added to the confusion of finding the location. The guides were very accommodating and helped to locate us, and bring us to the drawing space.”
