TheTokyo Tour was the second tour ofMario Kart Tour, which began on October 9, 2019 and ended on October 22, 2019. Reflecting its theme, it introduced anew course,Tokyo Blur, as well as variants ofMario andPeach in traditional Japanese attire, with Mario's being hishakama fromSuper Mario Odyssey. The tour also introducedRosalina,Baby Rosalina,Wario,Lakitu,Bowser Jr., and theKoopalings (Lemmy,Larry,Morton,Wendy,Iggy,Roy, andLudwig) as new drivers, as well asMario Circuit 2,Choco Island 2, andRainbow Road fromSuper Mario Kart,Kalimari Desert fromMario Kart 64, andMario Circuit andNeo Bowser City fromMario Kart 7 asclassic courses. This tour'sCoin Rush course was SNES Rainbow Road, which was reused from the game'sbeta; 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 the2022 Anniversary Tour, 77 tours later. The menu's background featuredMount Fuji as the landmark for this tour.
