FAQ

Do I need a license and an International Driving Permit?

Yes. Bring your valid license, your passport and an International Driving Permit issued under the 1949 Geneva Convention. Drivers from a few countries (e.g. Germany, Switzerland, France, Taiwan) use an official Japanese translation instead.

Are my documents valid in Japan?

Rules differ by country. Some countries (e.g. Germany, Switzerland, Monaco, France, Taiwan, Belgium) use an official Japanese translation instead of an IDP. Check JAF’s official list or tell us your country at booking and we’ll confirm.

Do you have automatic cars?

Yes — the Lancer Evolution X, GT-R R35 Premium Edition, GT-R NISMO and Liberty Walk GT-R are automatic. Skyline R34 (blue and white), Supra Mk4 and Mazda RX-7 are manual.

What’s included in the price?

The car, fuel, tolls, insurance, a lead car with an English-speaking guide, support, photo stops, in-car Wi-Fi and a discount on Akebono merch. Price is per car, not per person.

How old do I need to be?

Minimum driver age depends on the car: Skyline R34 and Lancer Evolution X 20+, Supra Mk4 and Mazda RX-7 22+, all GT-R models 25+.

How does the insurance work?

Every car is fully insured. Third-party liability is covered — other people, vehicles and property around you — plus major damage to the car. Small/minor scratches and damage from negligent or reckless driving are not covered. We explain everything at the briefing before you drive.

What if Daikoku PA or another stop is closed?

Police sometimes close Daikoku PA. Our guides always have a backup spot ready, so your night keeps going.

Can the route or car change?

Yes, if weather, traffic, closures or car availability require it. We’ll always tell you as early as possible and offer the closest alternative.

What’s the cancellation and rescheduling policy?

Full refund if you cancel more than 14 days before the tour. No refund within 14 days. Bookings made less than 14 days ahead are non-refundable once confirmed.
