What happens if I need to cancel my Himeji car reservation?
Don't stress. You should be eligible for a full refund if you let us know a minimum of six hours prior to pickup time. Your confirmation contains information about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid rentals will receive a refund though, so you may want to go over your car rental policy.

Motor around the city with minimal fuss and maximum enjoyment. There's no reason you have to stick to small though. Why not take things up a level and choose a standard or even a luxury vehicle?
Where can I go on a road trip from Himeji?
Himeji is full of surprises, but don't restrict yourself to only one place. Pick up a set of wheels and hit the road to discover what else awaits in the wider area. Here are some great options we've come up with:

  • Head to Osaka for a fun-filled sightseeing experience. About 80 kilometres from Himeji, it has lots of cool sights like Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Himeji?
Drivers 18 and above can go road-tripping around Himeji in a rental car. If you're a young motorist, a daily surcharge applies. You'll generally be restricted to a few car categories, such as economy and compact, and may also be required to take out an all-inclusive insurance rate. Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Himeji?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — a valid driver's licence and credit card. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up the keys.
What side of the road do you drive on in Himeji?
Unlike the United States, people in Himeji drive on the left-hand side. Having the steering wheel and some other controls on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Spend some time familiarising yourself with the vehicle and its quirks before embarking on your journey.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Himeji?
Yes, and the terrific news is companies often offer lower rates the longer your rental term. Explore our long-term car rental deals in Himeji and drive off with an amazing bargain.
Where can I find a Himeji car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a vehicle if you are under 25 years old in Himeji often depends on the rental provider you select. Some places apply a surcharge for young customers aged between 21 and 24 years, however others may not apply any additional fees for this age range. Make sure you read the terms and conditions of your prospective rental company to escape any nasty surprises on pickup.
