<< List of tours >>

The Winter Tour is the eighty-eighth tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on January 25, 2023 and ends on February 7, 2023. The tour introduces three city courses, namely Singapore Speedway 3, Bangkok Rush 2, and Bangkok Rush 3, making this the first tour since the 2019 Halloween Tour (eighty-five tours prior) to introduce three race courses in the game, the first to introduce three city courses, and the first to introduce multiple routes of the same city together. Like the Summer Festival Tour and the Mario vs. Peach Tour, the tour features the return of Tokyo Blur courses while also seeing the return of R/T variants of Tokyo Blurs 2, 3, and 4 for the first time. The tour's inclusion of the three Asian cities in the game, as well as Singapore Speedway 3 taking players through the Chinatown section, may be a reference to the Lunar New Year. This tour is one of three tours to have all its race courses be city courses all set in the same continent, after the Metropolitan Tour and the 2022 Autumn Tour, which were set in Europe and North America respectively. The Do Jump Boosts bonus challenge on Tokyo Blur, which was last seen in the Tokyo Tour, the second tour of the game, returns in this tour, making it the longest gap between the challenge's first appearance and its return.

The Big Reverse Race vs. 100 bonus challenge, which was announced fifteen tours prior, debuts in this tour.

A Winterfest begins in this tour and lasts until the end of the following tour.

The Coin Rush course of this tour is Singapore Speedway, which was reused from the Singapore Tour. The menu's background features Marina Bay Sands and the Singapore Flyer as the landmarks for this tour, which were also reused from the aforementioned tour.
