Awesome go-carting fun!

Awesome experience. Loved every minute of it. Maddy and Andy are excellent instructors- safe and fun at the same time! Highly recommend for anyone - solo, couples or groups. Expect fun, fun, fun 🏁🏎️

Must do experience! Bring your IDP!

Make sure you organise your International Driving Permit prior to coming to Osaka. This activity is fantastic and should not be missed! The carts are easy to learn and the guides ensure you know basic road rules before you begin. The guides are friendly and helped us feel comfortable in the carts. While following the guides, they take you past some iconic Osaka landmarks and you stop for a break near Osaka Tower, which is also an excellent opportunity for photos. If you have a bluetooth speaker, bring it along, otherwise you can hire one when you get there. The costumes are generous sizes and there is a good range.

Very friendly and great tour

Very friendly! They give you options to rent a camera or speaker. You get a very good coffee drink and the tour is lengthy. I recommend going at night so that you can see all the lights! Such a fun experience

Loved!!!!! Must do...

Loved!!!!! Must do experience! Also getting an IDP in the US is pretty easy (just go to AAA) so no reason not to add this to your itinerary! You will not regret driving through Osaka!

Excellent experience

We had an amazing experience with Osaka Mario Kart. They guided us through the whole process, making things so easy from going through the paperwork, driving directions, to driving test. Everything was done with ease. We will definitely come back. Highly recommend to anyone visit Osaka as a fun experience.
