The Kamek Tour was the fifty-first tour in Mario Kart Tour, which began on August 25, 2021 and ended on September 7, 2021. As the tour's name indicates, Kamek was introduced as a playable driver after being previously cut from both Mario Kart 64 and Mario Kart 8, making this the first tour to introduce a completely new driver to the series since the introduction of King Bob-omb in the Pirate Tour twenty-seven tours prior. Like the previous tour, this tour introduced a new remix course, this time based on the Ghost Valley tracks from Super Mario Kart, named RMX Ghost Valley 1. The special Bowser's Minions Pipe from the Pirate Tour returned in this tour, albeit with some different drivers, karts and gliders added.

This was the first tour to not contain any 3DS courses, as well as the first to feature a cup that only contained RMX courses; in this case, the Mario Cup and its bonus challenge. This was also the first non-Halloween Tour to feature Vs. Mega King Boo (Luigi's Mansion) in DS Luigi's Mansion as the last bonus challenge, as other Halloween Tours (excluding 2021) featured this bonus challenge last.

Only in this tour, the title screen image was changed to an image representing Team Peach's victory against Team Mario during the Mario vs. Peach Tour.

This tour's Coin Rush course was GBA Bowser's Castle 2, making this tour the second non-city tour in a row to not reuse a Coin Rush course. The menu's background featured mountains and clouds from the Ghost Valley courses as the landmark of this tour.

The Kamek Cup debuted in this tour (the first new cup since the Bowser vs. DK Tour eight tours prior), although Kamek was never made as a regular High-End driver until the Battle Tour twenty-nine tours later.

Starting from this tour, the Black Turbo Birdo is available in all regular tour pipes, including the All-Clear Pipe.
