Race through Osaka: A 90-minute karting adventure

Gear up in a costume and hit the streets of Osaka in style. In just 90 minutes, zoom through Osaka’s most iconic spots, soaking in the city's vibrant energy from behind the wheel.

Cruise past Tsutenkaku Tower, the "Tower Reaching the Sky," standing tall in the heart of Shinsekai, a district inspired by New York and Paris. Feel the nostalgia of old-school Osaka as neon lights and retro vibes surround you. Then, drive past Abeno Harukas, once Japan’s tallest skyscraper. In the company of a Japanese and English-speaking guide, get to know more about the landmarks you bypass.

Take a moment at Osaka Castle, a historic marvel nestled in a lush park, before speeding down Midosuji, Osaka’s luxury boulevard lined with high-end brands and sleek cityscapes. Then, roll into America-mura, the go-to district for Osaka’s trendsetters, packed with vintage shops and street art.

Your ride wraps up at Namba Station, the city's bustling transport hub that connects you to the wider Kansai region. After an exhilarating drive, head back to the shop where you’ll receive fun snapshots of your journey—proof that you just owned the streets of Osaka in style.
