Pass By: Tokyo Tower, 4-chome 2-8, Shibakoen, Minato 105-0011 Tokyo Prefecture

Seeing the Tokyo Tower from the C1 Loop Hwy at night is an incredible experience.

Pass By: Rainbow Bridge, 3-33 Kaigan, Minato 105-0022 Tokyo Prefecture

On the way we will cross the Tokyo Rainbow Bridge with views that are simply divine, spectacular, awe inspiring. There are many places that you can see Tokyo at night but this one can only be seen from the car, and what a view it is!

On one side you will see a spectacular city scape full of lights and on the other, equally impressive lights of Odaiba island with its amazing Fuji TV building.

Stop At: Tatsumi 1st PA, 3 Chome-1 Tatsumi, Koto City, Tokyo 135-0053, Japan

There are many ways to experience a vibrant city like Tokyo but nothing compares to a night run on the highways around the city.

Looping the iconic C1 Hwy, immortalized in video games and in car lore, weaving between buildings and through tunnels just hits different. Night scenery is spectacular.

We will take a 20min break at Tatsumi PA, a place where many car enthusiasts come for a stop while making loops on the highway or getting ready to head to, or are coming back from Daikoku PA.

Approximately 30-40min of driving in comfort and 20-30min stop to stretch your legs.


Duration: 45 minutes

Pass By: Odaiba District, Daiba, Minato 135-0091 Tokyo Prefecture

While crossing the Tokyo Rainbow Bridge you will get great views of Odaiba, the man-made island home to residential buildings, shopping, and leisure activities. You will get a chance to see the unusual Fuji TV building among others.

Pass By: Haneda Airport Terminal 2 Departure Area Airport Lounge, 3-4 Hanedakuko, Ota 144-0041 Tokyo Prefecture

We will pass through the Haneda Airport through tunnels under the runways. If we are lucky and the time is right then we can see airliners taxiing above us as we enter the tunnels.

Pass By: Yokohama Bay Bridge, Daikokufuto Tsurumi-ku, Yokohama 230-0054 Kanagawa Prefecture

Just before arriving at Daikoku PA you will get an amazing view of the Yokohama Bay Bridge and off the Yokohama skyline. Yokohama is a major cruise ship stop and you may see those also.

Stop At: Daikoku Parking Area, 15 Daikokufuto, Tsurumi-Ku, Yokohama 230-0054 Kanagawa Prefecture

Heading towards your final destination we will take the Wangan Hwy. This is a long straight highway connecting Tokyo and Yokohama made famous by the street racing escapades of the '90s and a manga, aptly named Wangan Midnight.

Ever since then it has been the artery connecting key epicenters of Japanese Car Culture.

Daikoku PA is an unassuming parking area that has been a place for nightly car gatherings for decades.

You can see iconic JDM machines from stock, classic to wild time attack builds, from drift machines to Kaido Racers, and from obscure to highly popular. There is probably something for everyone there.

You will also find plenty of Euro metal and American muscle. If you are lucky, you may see supercars, vintage classics, lowrider, and hot rods, you name it.

You will be driven in comfort for 30-40min and rest for 2hrs to stretch your legs, shop, and drink if you so desire.

All along we will immerse you in the stories behind the car culture and life in Japan.

Duration: 2 hours

Pass By: Minatomirai, Minatomirai, Nishi, Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, Kanto

On the way back you get a beautiful view of the Yokohama city skyline, Minatomirai area, and Yokohama Port.

Pass By: Rainbow Bridge, 3-33 Kaigan, Minato 105-0022 Tokyo Prefecture

One of the best views of the Tokyo city skyline is from the car when you cross the Rainbow Bridge from the Odaiba side to Tokyo....breathtaking.

Stop At: Shibuya, Shibuya, Tokyo, Tokyo Prefecture, Kanto

On the way back to Shibuya you will have more opportunities to see the awesome night views of Yokohama and Tokyo.

The crossing of the Tokyo Rainbow Bridge from the Odaiba side to Tokyo is among the most spectacular views of the Tokyo skyline.
