First class, exclusive JDM car enthusiast tour.
I had the pleasure of taking the 4 hour tour to Daikoku night car meet on a Sunday evening in a private tour in the Liberty Walk R35 GTR.
Leading up to the tour Niche were very good at communicating with us and even so on the day prior they gave us some options with wet weather forecast. This gesture speaks volumes on the professionalism of the group. We decided to proceed despite the wet weather conditions.
The 4 hours can be broken into 4 parts with some great time in the car talking all things JDM and Japanese car culture.
1. Hotel to Liberty Walk Harajuku with time to browse the store and buy some merchandise.
2. Liberty Walk to Autobacs - OMG this is a car mega store with every thing from car parts, clothing, reading materials, RC cars, there is even a separate building for Motorcycles in a similar theme. I could have spent hours in that place. There is time for coffee / frappe from the Starbucks inside.
3. Autobacs to Daikoku, a blast down some of the iconic Japanese freeway systems that JDM lovers get to know so well prior to descending down to the Daikoku car park where the car meets take place. The turn out car meet can be weather dependent, the evening was a good turn out.
4. Daikoku back to the hotel via the famous Rainbow bridge.
The pilot for my tour was Ken. What a gentleman. He is extremely personable and highly knowledgeable on all things JDM and Japanese car culture.
I highly recommend Niche and I look forward to rebooking another tour with a different car in the not so distant future.
