The only tour available that will pick you up from any hotel in Tokyo and personally drive you to the Mecca of drifting, in a drift car! You will be picked up early in the morning in either a drift ready Nissan 350z, Nissan Silvia S15, or Toyota Chaser JZX100. After the 3.5 hour drive to Ebisu, you will be able to ride along with an experienced driver on 4 different circuits. Warm up with donuts and figure 8s on Kuru-Kuru Land. Get sideways on School Course. Experience drifting a real mountain road Touge Course. And finally, the high speed North Course. We start with 2 sets (4 tires) of brand new rear tires and drift until they are all worn out. We will also burn about 2 full tanks of fuel. You will spend a lot of time actually experiencing real drifting. In between drifting sessions, you will be able to watch other drifters, and meet fellow car enthusiasts from Japan and around the world. The tour fee includes everything, including toll road fees, and Ebisu entry fees.

If you're a fan of Initial D or Tokyo Drift or Ken Block, and have been dreaming of being in a drift car then this experience will SEND you.
What better place to feel the sideways G-force than in the mecca of drifting, Japan.
Much like a lot of Americans visiting Japan, I wanted to maximize what I can do in the little time I had there.
In my research, to get to the Ebisu drift circuit from Tokyo as a newcomer with limited Japanese phrases and no international driver's license would be arduous and difficult. Then you would have to book a drift taxi which from what I recall was expensive and only limited number of laps.
That's where JDM Tours and their "Ebisu Circuit Drift Experience," made following this dream easy. They deal with all of the logistics and communication for you which is major if you're not fluent in Japanese. They pick you up from wherever you're staying in Tokyo, then drive you to the circuits. Then you drift beyond your heart's content. Have lunch. Continue to drift! Then they bring you back all in the same day!
I was fortunate to have Jake be my driver/shaman in a Nissan 350z! He's incredibly personable and willing to share not just drift knowledge but insightful stories about Japan and its culture and people.
Also, he's a MFing drift monster on the hairpins. Even though it rained half of the day, Jake still shredded the courses regardless. I'm no drift connoisseur but compared to the other drifters there, he seemed to be one of the very few to complete laps regularly without spinning out.
Overall, couldn't be happier with this experience! Even though we had just met that day, it felt like I was just hanging out with an old friend who just so happened to be really good at driving fast sideways around corners.
-----
TL;DR
If you want a stress-free day trip from Tokyo to experience a lot of DRIFTING, with a cool and talented guide, then this is THE tour for you.
P.S. If you're a fan of Initial D era cars, then hopefully you'll have my luck and be able to see an AE86 in-person. If not, still plenty of other cars to ogle at.

I booked this experience for my boyfriend who is a huge car enthusiast and it was the absolute best day of our trip for him. I wanted to get him to Ebisu Circuit so he could have a true drift experience while in Tokyo but I was struggling on how to get him there with no car and no knowledge of the roads or how the circuit works, when I stumbled across Jake’s business. He is very friendly and personable, booking this with him was an ease. He picked my boyfriend up at our hotel in Tokyo and drove him to the circuit where they spent the whole day. When he dropped off my boyfriend back at the hotel my boyfriend was smiling from ear to ear and could not believe the day he just had, it was truly a dream come true for him that couldn’t have been possible without this experience. If you want to go to Ebisu Circuit but don’t have a car to get you there or want to experience a drive with a true drifter, don’t hesitate to book this! I can’t emphasize enough how much my boyfriend enjoyed this, he is still raving about it!!
