How to Prepare for Your Go-Kart Adventure

Obtaining the Necessary Driving Permit

Japan locals are welcome to book a street go-kart tour and are only required to provide their valid Japanese driver’s permit and be at least 18 years of age. Foreigners must provide a valid passport and a valid driver’s permit that fits one of the following:

・An International Driving Permit (IDP) issued under the Geneva Convention 1949 (accompanied by a national driving license).

・An official Japanese translation of their license by an authorized organization, accompanied by the original license (this only applies to residents from Switzerland, Germany, France, Taiwan, Belgium, Estonia, or Monaco).

・A SOFA License or a combination of an Active Military ID with a stateside driver’s license (for U.S. residents only).

Understanding the Safety Guidelines

If you are new to driving in Japan, it is important to familiarize yourself with Japan’s road rules and regulations. Remember, in Japan vehicles drive on the left side of the road. Listen carefully during the safety briefing and ask any questions you may have before the start of the tour.

Choosing the Right Costume for Added Fun

Add a silly element to the experience by donning a fun character costume. Select from a variety of costumes, from furry animals to anime characters, there are plenty of options to choose from. If preferred, participants can bring their character costumes.
