Great experience

Published on Dec, 2024

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.

A must for a hot summer night

Published on Dec, 2024

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.

Amazing!

Published on Nov, 2024

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!

Published on Oct, 2024

Unique Experience
