What is a Self-Drive Tour?
A self-drive tour is a guided driving experience where guests drive their own vehicle while following a lead car (guide car).
This is not a race or a speed competition. All tours are conducted in full compliance with Japanese traffic laws, with safety as the top priority.
The lead car manages the route and driving pace, allowing participants to enjoy the drive with confidence and peace of mind.
Safety and legal compliance are always our highest priorities on this tour.
Without a Driving License?
Guests who do not possess a valid International Driving Permit are still welcome to join the experience.
In such cases, a professionally trained driver with a Japanese Class 2 (commercial) license will drive the vehicle for you.
This service ensures:
- Full compliance with Japanese traffic laws
- Safe and smooth operation by an experienced driver
- A worry-free experience while you enjoy Tokyo’s iconic routes
Please note that availability of driver-operated vehicles may be limited and should be confirmed in advance.
