Template:MKTTour The Tokyo Tour was the second tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on October 9, 2019 and ended on October 22, 2019. Reflecting its theme, it introduced a new course, Tokyo Blur (temporarily retitled "Tokyo Blur 1"), as well as variants of Mario and Peach in traditional Japanese attire, with Mario's being his hakama from Super Mario Odyssey. This tour's Coin Rush course was SNES Rainbow Road, which was reused from the game's beta. The menu's background featured Mount Fuji as the landmark for this tour.

Trivia

  • This was the first tour in which the final cup did not feature a Vs. Mega (opponent) bonus challenge.
    • This was the only tour to have bonus challenges that features the same track back-to-back.
  • Without counting the base game content added in the New York Tour, this was the tour that added the biggest amount of new content to the game, with 14 new drivers, 13 new karts, 10 new cups, 9 new gliders, 7 new tracks and 2 new items.
  • In the Baby Rosalina and Daisy Cups, SNES Mario Circuit 2 depicted Lakitu and GCN Yoshi Circuit T depicted Metal Mario on the icons despite them not being favorite courses. This was the first tour that had this oddity.
