About Tour Guide Jonathan R.
Hi, my name is Jonathan,
Join me and help me craft an incredible experience in my favorite part of the world, Kansai.
Join me in an unforgettable experience exploring Kansai with me and my highly modified Mitsubishi Evo 6 'Gokuro San'.
I've lived in Japan for 18 years, I know Kansai inside out, and I work in the car export industry in Japan. Join me for my favorite tour, the JDM Experience, and cruise the Kanjo loop with me at night. Or explore the Ikoma 'Drift' Mountains with me for a day trip (this can also be incredible at night!). Also, send me a custom tour request, and I can custom build something for you! We could check out a car auction, head to a Japanese racetrack, or tour the Kyoto or Nara 'drift' mountains. Why not build a combination of both? Send me a message, and we can build an unforgettable experience.
I speak fluent Japanese, I can help with translations; I know all the best spots for food and drink. Send me a message; and even if I can't help, I can point you in the right direction.
See you on tour!

“Amazing time with Jonathan in Osaka!”
I had a personalised tour with Jonno in the Evo 6 (great car) and wanted to hit a lot of Osaka’s main hotspots. Jonathan helped us out with a customised itinerary and was super lovely, funny and knowledgeable about each site we went to. We not only had heaps for fun throughout the day but also just had fun hanging out with Jonno. This was also easily the best bang for your buck tour we have done on our Japan trip (we’ve done a lot), and you also get to ride in a super cool car. We’re super grateful for this experience!

Thanks Dylan! I genuinely had a blast hanging out with you guys, and I enjoyed putting together the customised itinary adding extra recommendations here and there. I haven't been on the Tempozan Ferris wheel in years, so it was a great opportunity to get in on a great night-spot with you guys.

Nara and Ikoma 'Drift' Moutains Driving Experience
Day Tour exploring the gorgeous and scenic Touge Ikoma 'Drift' mountains. Channel your inner Initial-D Takumi on the Curved Roads and incredible views. Especially incredible during the changing seasons, with the Cherry Blossoms looking incredible in Spring, and the falling autumn leaves in Fall. The JDM car culture connected to the Ikoma Mountains and the Skyline driving pass is a blend of motorsport enthusiasm, underground street racing history, and breathtaking scenic drives.

Koyasan UNESCO Temple Road Trip — Scenic Drive in a Mitsubishi Evo 6
Koyasan (Mt. Koya) is one of Japan’s most sacred destinations. A peaceful mountain-top temple town founded over 1,200 years ago. Hidden in the misty cedar forests of Wakayama, Koyasan is famous for its spiritual atmosphere, stunning temple architecture, and the unforgettable Okunoin cemetery trail. We’ll leave Osaka behind and head deep into the mountains in my iconic Mitsubishi Evo6. Unlike public transport, this experience is comfortable, time-efficient, and fully guided.

This is a tour to fully enjoy our local area. It's a tour where you can see historical local castle, climb mountains with a view of waterfalls. After that, soak in our proud hot springs, experience traditional kimono, and from exploring historical sites to enjoying traditional activities like wearing kimonos and visiting local hot springs. Offering this diverse range of activities can make for a well-rounded and memorable tour!
