Very well organised, safe, and excellent friendly service. Fully recommend! It was easy to book and got very good alerts and information.
Awesome experience! Very safe and considerate experience with an excellent briefing and guide cars. Well worth it.
Heaps of fun with some adrenaline pumping moments driving through some of Osaka’s busy/touristy areas. Quality carts with good brakes. Safety cars at front and back of group.
I would expect this in the US, but not in Japan. The driver of the lead car was an Australian boy of about 19 years who spoke condescendingly and rudely. I feel like he must be new to the job and an inexperienced driver. The karts are very slow to accelerate and their maximum speed seems to be about 40 kph. This young boy would accelerate from stops at a rate the karts cannot match, and would often exceed the maximum speed of the karts and pull far ahead. At one point he criticized us for not following closely enough, and when I informed him that we were driving at top speed, he asked if I was pushing the pedal all the way down. I have been driving for longer than this child has been alive, and to receive a comment like this was very insulting. I hope that when he matures a bit he can learn to show basic respect and patience. His driving skills are in need of quite some improvement, as well. Strangely, the driver's father was riding along with him through the whole trip. When I said hello to him, he just looked at me coldly, so I think I understand why this young boy behaves the way he does.
I had an exciting time, and it was an amazing experience! After choosing the outfit/cosplay which u wish to wear (there a a lot of them to choose from) and a quick safety briefing, we made our way to our kart. From there it's 90 mins around the streets of Osaka. The route chosen was excellence blending popular spots and landmarks around Osaka. There are also stretches esp near Osaka castle where there was less traffic are where you get the chance to test the speed of your kart. Highly recommend!
BEWARE! Rude Host - no communication! We had to find out last minute that you needed all three of the following: - international driving certificate - driver's license - passport They will gladly take your money and not say a thing until you show up hoping to go on the tour - it was almost like they couldn't wait to send us away and did nothing to help. We took a taxi to get here which was relatively expensive, had they even once reached out for the 24-hour deadline like many other operators.. they Suck!
This was awesome! Super friendly staff, the go karts were cool and the tour was perfect! Loved that we could see so many areas in Osaka while driving. Big thank you😍
We had a great time doing the Osaka tour. Staff was very accommodating. Tour lap hit all the highlights of the city. Had multiple photo ops that were very well organized; 100 stars! ⭐️
Great experience, staff members were really helpful and easy to deal with, communication wasn’t a problem when needing to change times. Go karts were spacious especially for wider fits and leg room. Overall fantastic experience and would recommend
Our tour was so fantastic I told all my family and friends immediately. Will be a highlight of our amazing trip to this incredible country. Driving here wasn’t daunting at all with our experienced tour guide there to lead us. Best staff and tour hands down. Loved it so much! Thank you for the experience!
Awesome team. Awesome experience. 10/10. The staff was friendly and super nice. The karts were well taken care of and thrilling. I went at night. Less cars to get in your way and you get to see the city lit up.
So fun to drive around Osaka in a kart with a costume! The staff was great ensuring we were safe but still had a great time. Would definitely recommend Japankart!
What an absolutely amazing experience! The staff were super friendly, they had a good selection of jackets, onesies and accessories to wear at no extra charge. Driving the go karts amidst the busy Osaka traffic and beautiful city views was a buzz! O for Awesome! O for Osaka Japankarts!! ❤️
I have done go carts in Tokyo before but found Osaka a much better place to drive around. I was fortunate to be the only one that showed up at the right time. There was only myself and one cart with the lead driver and a car that followed. Great experience and felt totally safe the entire time.
Excellent experience. Would definitely recommend them to anyone who’s interested in this experience. If I was to do this again it would be during the summer at night.
Wow! What a ride. You simply cannot beat driving around the streets of Osaka and seeing the sights. What a great way to see the city. I would definitely recommend doing this at night time. The team looked after us really well. This is a must do when in Osaka (and you have your international driving permit with you).
Amazing experience! The tour guides were all very clear with instruction and very friendly. Amazing! Highly recommend!
Friendly staff, great experience, convenient location close to public transit. One of the highlights of my trip. Would recommend.
This was one of of the highlights of our trip! The folks working there were awesome and the tour went through a lot of cool places. Definitely recommend doing it at night!
Had an amazing time! The team ensured our tour ran smoothly with well-organized and thorough safety procedures. The staff, especially Kento and Takeshi, were incredibly friendly and made sure everyone had fun while staying safe. It’s hands down the best tour I’ve had in Japan. An absolute must for anyone looking for an exciting and unforgettable experience!
Pleasant experience riding a cart through Osaka city centre..! Real was fun. The kindness of the Japanese drivers and the greeting of the passing people made something warm.
