Unbelievable Experience - Takeshi was nice & friendly. He will bring you to a circuit for the drifting experience. He has some connections around so he will be asking drifters if they mind having you as a passenger. Usually, he will only allow you to get 1x Joyride in the drifter’s car. Since I am the only one that is on his trip, he finds me another ride. All in all, it was a good experience. It’s something that I couldn’t get in my home country. The vibes and experience is unreal. I will definitely return to Japan for more drifting content. Apart from Drift Taxi Experience, Takeshi also offers you a drift lesson. If you are interested to learn drifting, hit him up to book your lesson

An awesome drift experience! - This experience was amazing! I highly recommend it to anyone that is interested in checking out the drift scene here in Japan. There were so many cool cars there and I was able to be a passenger to two awesome drifters at Nikko Circuit. I am looking forward to my next trip to Japan so I can take on the drift lesson. Takeshi is such a personable and friendly guy too. He has a lot of knowledge and provided me with a memorable experience throughout. This was definitely a highlight of my Japan trip!

Best tour guide & experience I've ever had! - While planning out my vacation to Japan I discovered this listing. I was hesitant and not sure what to expect at first but I'm super glad I went for it! I had fun even before drifting, on the ride there Takeshi would point out interesting things about the land, Japanese culture, drifting etc as well as getting to know me. I've never had a tour guide be so down to earth and friendly! The drifting itself was so freaking cool! Honestly, this was the highlight of my vacation in Japan. You can watch the drifting from the ledge, seeing the beginners, intermediates, and pros practice their drifting. I got to ride with 2 of the pros and it was truly an experience i'll never forget. I will without a doubt do this again when I go back to Japan!

JUST DO IT! - Long story short, if you’re a car guy…. Just do it. Got to ride in 2 different cars and by the end of it my face hurt from smiling so much. Drove to Nikko circuit but the track changes each time, well worth the price and will be doing it the second I come back to Japan.

Awesome experience! I... - Awesome experience! I loved it got to watch badass drifters at mobara twin circuit, and got two full circuit ride alongs with intermediate drivers and I paid a little bit extra at the track to ride with a pro driver. All 3 were amazing drifters! Takeshi was my guide and he was super cool speaks Japanese and great English, he got me two ride alongs included. He also teaches drifting, which i hope to do next time im in Japan. Overall great experience and highly recommend if you want that Tokyo drift experience! 10/10

EPIC drifting experience only in JAPAN! - This kind of epic drifting experience can only be found in Japan! Takeshi took me to a truly local event, and it felt like the real heart of the drifting scene. I got to ride twice, and honestly, this might be one of the best experiences of my life. If you love Japanese cars, drifting, and above all, the thrill of adrenaline, this is an absolute must-try experience!

Blown Away 🤯🤯 - 2 hours outside of Tokyo tucked away up in the middle of mountains... Nikko Circuit. aka heaven on earth lol
One of the most, if not the most amazing experiences of my life. We went tandem drifting with professional race car drivers.
@daisuke.nakamura79 a 51 year old legend in the drifting world absolutely killed it behind the wheel! 🔥 as well as his 49 year old WOMAN drifting partner that tandemed next to us🔥
20/10 experience!
Our guide Tekashi was absolutely amazing! He took this experience to a whole other level for me and my fiance. Talking cars, anime, and life on our way to the event and on the way back, he recommended so many awesome places for us to see. The ride was comfortable and didn't feel like 2 hours at all. Highly highly recommend this event if you're coming to Tokyo !!!

I regret nothing. (about riding that lowered 80s dinosaur) - Great experience!
Got to ride in two very different cars and experience some of Japan's car culture first hand. Friendly host who was pleasant to talk to. Very easy trip being picked up from my hotel in Tokyo.
Can absolutely recommend if you have a day to spare and want to an authentic part of Japan you won't see otherwise and don't mind a little thrill.
