What side of the road do you drive on in Kofu?
If you're renting a car in Kofu or planning a road trip in greater Japan, prepare to drive on the left side of the road. Also, the driver's seat and some controls will be on the opposite side of what you're used to in the U.S. This may feel a little unfamiliar at first, so drive with extra care.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Kofu?
Yes, which means you won't need to rebook a rental vehicle mid-holiday. Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and book a ride that's all yours for however long you need.
Where can I find a Kofu car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Kofu companies will rent cars to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you'll need to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some places will pass on a surcharge to customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Be sure to read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
