Tokyo, Japan — For travelers seeking a unique and immersive adventure in Japan, Monkey Kart offers a standout cultural experience right in the heart of Tokyo. Known for its character-themed go-kart rides through some of the city’s most iconic streets, Monkey Kart has become one of Tokyo’s most memorable and top-rated activities for visitors from around the globe.

For over five years, Monkey Kart has allowed tourists to explore Tokyo from behind the wheel of customized street karts, dressed in playful character onesies. Riders can drive past renowned landmarks such as the Tokyo Tower and Sensoji Temple, experiencing the city in an entirely new way.

Why Monkey Kart? Here’s the Deal:

  • Recognized as one of Tokyo’s most iconic and highly rated travel experiences
  • Custom-built karts designed for comfortable and safe street cruising
  • Themed character onesies available to enhance the experience
  • Available throughout the year — in all seasons

Day and night ride options offering different views:

  • Daytime rides offer vibrant, scenic photo opportunities
  • Night rides showcase Tokyo’s dazzling neon-lit skyline

But Wait! Important Travel Tip:
To drive legally, you must carry an international driving permit (IDP) based on the 1949 Geneva Convention.

Japan takes this seriously – no valid permit, no go-karting fun. So don’t forget it!
