<< List of tours >>

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, as well as variants of Mario and Peach in traditional Japanese attire, with Mario's being his hakama from Super Mario Odyssey. The tour also introduced Rosalina, Baby Rosalina, Wario, Lakitu, Bowser Jr., and the Koopalings (Lemmy, Larry, Morton, Wendy, Iggy, Roy, and Ludwig) as new drivers, as well as Mario Circuit 2, Choco Island 2, and Rainbow Road from Super Mario Kart, Kalimari Desert from Mario Kart 64, and Mario Circuit and Neo Bowser City from Mario Kart 7 as classic courses. This tour's Coin Rush course was SNES Rainbow Road, which was reused from the game's beta; it is the only tour that introduced a new city course to not use it as the tour's Coin Rush course, as Tokyo Blur would only be used as a Coin Rush course in the 2022 Anniversary Tour, 77 tours later. The menu's background featured Mount Fuji as the landmark for this tour.

Trivia

  • This was the only tour to feature bonus challenges taking place in the same course back-to-back, the course being SNES Choco Island 2.
  • 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 fourteen new drivers, thirteen new karts, ten new cups, nine new gliders, seven new tracks and two 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.
