Itinerary

Roppongi Hills, Shop & Restaurant (Pass By)

Along the way you will pass the Roppongi Hills Mori Tower building, home to many prestigious international companies, upscale shopping, and fine dining.
Rainbow Bridge (Pass By)

On the way we will cross the Tokyo Rainbow Bridge with views that are simply divine, spectacular, awe inspiring. There are many places that you can see Tokyo at night but this one can only be seen from the car, and what a view it is! On one side you will see a spectacular city scape full of lights and on the other, equally impressive lights of Odaiba island with its amazing Fuji TV building.
Odaiba District (Pass By)

While crossing the Tokyo Rainbow Bridge you will get great views of Odaiba, the man-made island home to residential buildings, shopping, and leisure activities. You will get a chance to see the unusual Fuji TV building among others.
Koto

TIME includes a 25min ride to Autobacs and 25min at the location. We will make a top at the A PIT Autobacs store. This is Autobacs' flagship store and is an absolute pleasure to browse all things car relate. In a world of online shopping, it is refreshing to see all these accessories and parts in real life. There is a thing to be said about brick & mortar stores.

50 minutes
Tatsumi No.1 Parking Area (up)

TIME includes a quick 10min hop to Tatsumi and 15min rest at the place. We will take a 15min break at Tatsumi PA, a place where many car enthusiasts come for a stop while making loops on the highway or getting ready to head to, or are coming back from Daikoku PA. This is an iconic photo location from GT video game and a spawn point in Asseto Corsa.

25 minutes
Tokyo Skytree (Pass By)

While on our way to Daikoku along the Furukawa Line we will have fabulous views of the Tokyo Skytree, one of the tallest structures in the world.
Haneda Airport Terminal 2 Departure Area Airport Lounge (Pass By)

We will pass through the Haneda Airport through tunnels under the runways. If we are lucky and the time is right then we can see airliners taxiing above us as we enter the tunnels.
Yokohama Bay Bridge (Pass By)

Just before arriving at Daikoku PA you will get an amazing view of the Yokohama Bay Bridge and off the Yokohama skyline. Yokohama is a major cruise ship stop and you may see those also.
Daikoku Parking Area

TIME includes a 40min, conversation filled, ride to Daikoku and a 60min stop at the location. Heading towards your final destination we will take the Wangan Hwy. This is a long straight highway connecting Tokyo and Yokohama made famous by the street racing escapades of the '90s and a manga, aptly named Wangan Midnight. Ever since then it has been the artery connecting key epicenters of Japanese Car Culture. Daikoku PA is an unassuming parking area that has been a place for nightly car gatherings for decades. You can see iconic JDM machines from stock, classic to wild time attack builds, from drift machines to Kaido Racers, and from obscure to highly popular. There is probably something for everyone there. You will also find plenty of Euro metal and American muscle. If you are lucky, you may see supercars, vintage classics, lowrider, and hot rods, you name it. All along we will immerse you in the stories behind the car culture and life in Japan.

1 hour 40 minutes
Minatomirai (Pass By)

On the way back you get a beautiful view of the Yokohama city skyline, Minatomirai area, and Yokohama Port.
Rainbow Bridge (Pass By)

One of the best views of the Tokyo city skyline is from the car when you cross the Rainbow Bridge from the Odaiba side to Tokyo....breathtaking.
Tokyo Tower (Pass By)

Seeing the Tokyo Tower from the C1 Loop Hwy at night is an incredible experience.
Shibuya

TIME reflects our ride back from Daikoku to Shibuya with views of Minatomirai, Tokyo Tower, and of Tokyo from the Rainbow Bridge. On the way back to Shibuya you will have more opportunities to see the awesome night views of Yokohama and Tokyo. The crossing of the Tokyo Rainbow Bridge from the Odaiba side to Tokyo is among the most spectacular views of the Tokyo skyline. The drive back will take 45-60min with even more opportunities to take photos/videos while engaged in fun conversations about cars, the people, and life in Japan in general.

Great experience!

Published on May, 2025

Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, explained to us a lot of facts about Japan and the sights we saw, as well as any information about cars we wanted! We saw a huge variety of JDM cars and many more, brilliant atmosphere! Overall, I would recommend this experience to anyone who is into car culture!

Amazing

Published on May, 2025

If your into (JDM) cars this is a must to do! I was solo with two others who were doing it solo as well. We went to two carmeet spots. The best one was at Daikoku. Super big and lots of cars! We also did a complete tour of the C1 loop. 10/10 must try again! ;)

Fun, informative tour, seeing JDMs, Euro exotics, and chance to chat with motoring enthusiasts. Highly recommended.

Published on May, 2025

We had a great morning with Michael exploring the best haunts for motoring enthusiasts in Tokyo, seeing European exotics, stock and highly modified JDMs, and chatting about everything car related. Michael was entertaining and informative, and made the whole experience pacy and fun. I have no hesitation in recommending his tours to anyone keen to see the Japanese passion for cars.

The best

Great experience for car enthusiasts! Michael and his crew were very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable about all things cars. The experience was well organized to hit a bunch of cool spots and to experience some of the iconic roads. Daikoku was an amazing place to visit and a highlight of our whole trip. We loved it and highly recommend this crew and experience!
