It was an exhilarating experience Go-Karting around Tokyo and that is thanks to Monkey Kart Shinjuku. Ken, who was our guide, was well-versed in the city and possessed excellent driving abilities. He was also very accommodating and made certain that we had a good time. He took lots of wonderful pictures and made us feel at ease. Overall, I had a great time and would recommend them anyone looking for a fun tour guide in Tokyo.
