Cheap Tokyo Hire Car & Car Rentals

Tokyo is more like a thousand micro-cities nestled together than one cohesive unit. Depending on where you decide to park your Tokyo car rental, you could find yourself wandering through the glorious gardens of an ancient temple, lost amongst endless rows of zany anime comics or peering up at looming skyscrapers.

Tokyo can’t be squeezed into just a few images; it’s a kaleidoscope of experiences, some ancient and quiet, others so futuristic that you’d think you’d tripped into a time machine.

If you aren’t sure what to do first, the answer should be obvious: grab a nice dish of sushi and figure out your next move.

Go Cruising

Tokyo is so massive that it’s almost unfair to squeeze it down into a few top sites to visit, but we’re going to try anyway. Honestly, one of the best ways to get a feel for Tokyo is to simply park your Tokyo car hire and wander. Watch the endless flow of traffic, get lost in a massive shopping centre, and make your way up to the top of a massive skyscraper to enjoy some breathtaking views.

There are a few places, however, that you can’t miss on your trip. Your tourist card might get revoked (we’re joking) if you don’t visit the gardens of the Imperial Palace in Chiyoda, the Meiji Shrine in Harajuku, and the temples of Asakursa.

Road Trip!

Tokyo can feel a tad overwhelming at times. If you need a little air, make your great escape with big savings when you rent a car in Tokyo through Wotif. Mt. Takao in Hachiki, roughly 50km from Tokyo, is a popular refuge from the crowds, as is Okutama, a relaxing and pretty mountain town 70km from the shadows of Tokyo’s skyscrapers.

Make sure you bring plenty of pocket change to explore Tokyo and beyond its busy borders. You’ll also want to amass a sufficient sushi fund (which translates to “as much money as you can scrape together”).

That won’t be hard when you use Wotif to save big on hotels in Tokyo and Tokyo holiday packages. Leave some room in your stomach—we’ll see you there!
