Kyoto Car Rentals
If you think the capital of Japan is Kyoto, you’d only be off by a couple hundred years. No worries, though; this massive metro area on the island of Honshu is still worth a holiday trek. If you only went for the shrines—there are so many, we can’t even keep track—that’d be enough, but there’s so much more to see. Check out Wotif’s unbelievable offers on Kyoto hotels and book your stay as soon as you’re done reading this.
Go Cruising
Now that you’ve arrived for your holiday in Japan, get yourself a Kyoto car rental from Wotif and explore every corner of this city. Start in the northern district and check out the Shimogamo Shrine, one of the most important Shinto sanctuaries in the country. Take a walk through Tadasu no Mori, which translates to the “Forest Where Lies are Revealed”. You’re not hiding anything, are you?
When your time at the temple is up, head 13km to the Arashiyama district and hang out in the Iwatayama Monkey Park. This place is home to a troupe of over 170 Japanese macaque monkeys, all looking for free handouts. You can feed them food you buy from the snack bar, but keep a close eye on your personal belongings. The macaques have hands like New York City pickpockets.
Road Trip!
Do you feel like taking a day trip to another city? Hop in the Kyoto car hire you got with Wotif and make the 94km drive north to the city of Nagahama. Spend part of the day roaming the grounds of Nagahama Castle and check out the city museum located on its grounds. If you get hungry, drive to Kurokabe Square and get a bowl of yaki-saba somen, a noodle dish that may or may not change your life. Trust us, it’s so good.
