Then, you'll be ready to hit the road and explore Japan's unparalleled attractions.

Exploring Japan

Japan is made up of more than 6000 small islands, but the largest, Honshu, is where you'll find the main cities lined up along the southern coast. Large roads connect the major cities like Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka, making it a country well suited to road-tripping travellers as well as those looking to base themselves in one spot. Take in the Zen gardens and teahouses of Kyoto, ultramodern culture and restaurants of Tokyo, mountainous idyll of Takayama and the lakes of Hakone, which lie in the shadow of Mount Fuji. Our car hire comparison and booking service makes things simple, giving you more time to enjoy Japan's incredible sights.
