Fun on carts - Awesome team. Awesome experience. 10/10. The staff was friendly and super nice. The karts were well taken care of and thrilling. I went at night. Less cars to get in your way and you get to see the city lit up.

O for Osaka Japankarts ❤️ - What an absolutely amazing experience! The staff were super friendly, they had a good selection of jackets, onesies and accessories to wear at no extra charge. Driving the go karts amidst the busy Osaka traffic and beautiful city views was a buzz! O for Awesome! O for Osaka Japankarts!! ❤️

Great experience - I have done go carts in Tokyo before but found Osaka a much better place to drive around. I was fortunate to be the only one that showed up at the right time. There was only myself and one cart with the lead driver and a car that followed. Great experience and felt totally safe the entire time.

A must for a hot summer night - Excellent experience. Would definitely recommend them to anyone who’s interested in this experience. If I was to do this again it would be during the summer at night.

Amazing! - Wow! What a ride. You simply cannot beat driving around the streets of Osaka and seeing the sights. What a great way to see the city. I would definitely recommend doing this at night time. The team looked after us really well. This is a must do when in Osaka (and you have your international driving permit with you).
