USA, 28 years oldSuper fun! (USA, 28 years old)
 

My overseas friend has done this and highly recommended to me as a super fun experience. So I gave it a try.
I was a bit nervous about driving on the other side of the road, but my guide led me all the way through and I was quite comfortable with driving!
My guide was so energetic and did everything to entertain!
He kindly took many picture for me, and I am super satisfied!

Taiwan, 24 years oldThe scenery at night was gorgeous! (Taiwan, 24 years old)

I was with a group of friends around the same age. We thought about taking the 1-hour course, yet after discussing with their staff via Facebook, we decided to take the 2-hour tour.
I normally only ride motorcycle in Taiwan, so I was a bit afraid of driving a kart. Yet they taught me how to drive very carefully, and I could learn to drive much more quickly than expected.
To sum up my feedback, the scenery at night was just gorgeous! We started in early evening, and saw the Skytree coming closer at the end of the tour. It was magnificent - the best experience ever!!

Japan, 22 years oldI saw Tokyo that I have never seen before (Japan, 22 years old)

My friends and I traveled to Tokyo from Kansai region to celebrate our graduation.
It was fun, fun, fun!! The vehicle ran quite close to the ground, thus I could enjoy the great driving sensation. I was a bit cold toward the end as I wore a little too light. LoL
The body of the vehicle was really gold and flashy. So many passersby wove their hands at us, making us feel like a bunch of celebrities! We could visit famous tourist destinations in Tokyo in a short time, so we were constantly high-spirited, shouting “Oh, I have seen that on TV!”
