Skip the trains while carrying your super heavy luggage and just take this bus to get to the main city area in Tokyo! Super convenient and hassle free because your luggage is kept under the bus in the storage area and you just rest inside the bus! very comfortable experience that I would recommend to anyone!

Generally speaking, it is similar to my last experience. The whole process was very smooth. The difference from last time is the level of the set meal, but in fact, it is still full. I think it is enough if you have experienced it.

Amazing experience! definitely a must try for anyone travelling to japan. We went when the sun was about to set and it was beautiful to see the sunset as well as the lights around the city. the person leading be drive/tour was very helpful and informative. local people were also very infatuated with the karts so be sure to wave to them and smile!
