The 44th Prince Mikasa Cup All Japan Dancesport Championship.
On 19 and 20 October 2024, the 44th Prince Mikasa Cup All Japan Dancesport Championship was held at the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium in Sendagaya, Tokyo, attracting many dance enthusiasts from across the country. In this traditional competition, heated battles were fought in a wide range of categories from junior to senior to decide the All-Japan Champion.
This time, the taxi was requested to provide round-trip transport from Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture, via Kagurazaka, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, to the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium in Sendagaya, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo. During the Games, many people used jumbo taxis and wagon taxis as a means of access to the venue. Jumbo taxis can carry more people and luggage than regular taxis and are particularly suitable for groups of five or more people and those with large amounts of luggage. Jumbo taxis and wagon taxis are also known as sightseeing taxis.
Key benefits of jumbo and wagon taxis
- Transports large groups of people: with a maximum capacity of up to 9 passengers, it is ideal for groups!
- Large boot: plenty of room for large items such as golf bags and suitcases!
- Comfortable interior: the spacious interior allows you to relax on the move!
- Save time and money: travel in one jumbo taxi instead of several five-seater taxis!
Jumbo taxis and wagon taxis are very convenient for accessing large event venues such as the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium. On the day of the Games, traffic restrictions may be enforced in the vicinity and public transport is expected to be congested. Therefore, booking a jumbo taxi or wagon taxi in advance will ensure smooth and comfortable travel.
Jumbo taxis can be easily booked via the taxi company's website or by telephone. Fares vary depending on the method of use, such as time charter or distance-based, so it is advisable to check in advance. Please consider using a jumbo taxi or wagon taxi the next time you attend an event. They are chosen by many as a comfortable and efficient means of transport.
