“Imagine driving a go kart through Tokyo of all places on the street doing a wonderful tour. My family and I did this and Gyula was our tour guide. This was sooooo much fun and safe. We all felt safe and Gyula communicated very well on the road. We were so happy we were able to share this experience, and this is the one to do. I know there are others in Tokyo but this is by far the best one considering the traffic and the sites.”
