Winter Tour (2023)

The Winter Tour is the eighty-eighth tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on January 25, 2023 and ends on February 7, 2023. The tour introduces three city courses, namely Singapore Speedway 3, Bangkok Rush 2, and Bangkok Rush 3, making this the first tour since the 2019 Halloween Tour (eighty-five tours prior) to introduce three race courses, the first to introduce three city courses, and the first to introduce multiple routes of the same city together in the game. Like the Summer Festival Tour and the Mario vs. Peach Tour, the tour features the return of Tokyo Blur courses. The inclusion of three n cities in the game in the tour and Singapore Speedway 3 that takes players through the section may be a reference to the. This tour is one of the three tours where all the race courses in the tour are city courses all set in the same continent; the remaining two being the Metropolitan Tour and the 2022 Autumn Tour, which were set in Europe and North America respectively.

This is the first tour since the Mario vs. Peach Tour (thirty-nine tours prior) to include not only Tokyo Blurs 2, 3 and 4, but also the first return of the R/T variants of all these three courses.

The Big Reverse Race vs. 100 bonus challenge, which was announced fifteen tours prior, debuts in this tour.

A Winterfest begins in this tour and ends in the following tour.

The Coin Rush course of this tour is Singapore Speedway, which was reused from the Singapore Tour.
