This version of Rainbow Road reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting with the [[Tokyo Tour]]. It mostly takes on the appearance of its ''Mario Kart 7'' iteration. However, the arrow signs and Star Thwomp from the ''Mario Kart 8'' rendition are used instead. Red tiling was added to the course. The tiles are brighter, like with the ''Mario Kart 8'' rendition of the course. The ramp inside the second U-turn is absent, as in the original SNES and GBA versions, the hole in the road is even smaller than it was before (the narrow part at the end is only one tile long, and the hole in general is 7 tiles shorter), the last two Star Thwomps are further apart, the track edges are rounded rather than squared, and the track itself is of a thicker shape.  The track reuses the arrangement heard in ''Mario Kart 7''; this is unlike most other classic courses, which usually retained their original music. The starting banner is now colored red as opposed to pink. The background is based on its appearance from ''Mario Kart 7'', albeit with meteors added to it and retaining the blue tint from ''Super Mario Kart'', except more detailed, taking up the entire screen, and with purple colored details added. The Thwomps also retain their shaking effect from ''Mario Kart 8''.

The course also appears as '''Rainbow Road R''' (reversed), '''Rainbow Road T''' (with ramps), and '''Rainbow Road R/T''' (reversed with ramps). The latter was later added in the [[Winter Tour (2019)|2019 Winter Tour]]. In the R and R/T variants, the first straightaway racers encounter is missing and they instead use a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] to get across. In the T variant, all Star Thwomps are removed and the road is constantly wavy. In the R/T variant, there are [[Ring (Mario Kart series)|star ring]]s as well as a [[Mushroom Trampoline|mushroom trampoline]].
