I'm so happy I found your video. We do exactly have the same mindset on adventure vs cost vs experience. And of course the experience of driving in Japan. Me with my wife and daughter will be visiting Tokyo very soon when this pandemic is over. I've been thinking of visiting Mt. Fuji by car and was a bit worried about having to drive in the opposite seat (I'm from the Philippines) but I'm now good, so great to find your video. Thank you very much!

Great! You and your family will have a blast, if you drive on the local street and avoid freeway will be more fun and more scenic as well, also cheaper without the tolls

The view of Mt. Fuji in Tanuki park in Fujinomiya is also good and there's a bench where you can seat, relax, and enjoy Mt. Fuji without anything obstructing it.

I drove this route in 1970 when I was there for British week with the Royal Marines. Amazing memories! Plus the Ginza strip and the Bullet train! AND everything was so expensive! But worth it..

What time of the year and time of the day did you drive? And was it a weekday or weekend? I am planning my second Japan trip and was thinking about renting a car. But concidering the cost I think I need to rethink a bit.

Question - How do I book this online in advance? I am planning to book for a few days. It seems to charge me for 24 hours (more expensive rate) rather than the additional 1 day rate. There is a 1900Y difference but by default, the website is charging me more if I want to make a reservation on the Nippon website. Can anyone help?

Fuji Walking Park, 1770-12 Araya, Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi 403-0005, Japan. But I highly recommand "Nagaike Waterside Park Parking Lot" for a lake side view of Mt Fuji.

Hello, im planning to rent a car from Tokyo to Fujikawaguchiko later. I'm curious about the car rental agent in Japan. i see some official "Nissan or Toyota rent a car". also i see some like you share in this video "Nippon rent a car". i wonder about the insurance coverage between Nissan/toyota vs Nippon rent a car.

Depends on where you are from, but if you’re from the US you can pay 20 dollars or so for an International drivers license, which can be used for most rentals. Most of the major rental companies have English speaking staff!

I saw another video, also saying to put in a phone number. But I thought you had to put in your own phone number. So what you are saying is that you put in the phone number of the place you want to go, and the GPS will find directions to that place? What if you don't know the phone number? Can you still put in an address?

Thank you for a great video on. I’ve not been to Japan in many years but I was never brave enough to rent a car in all my previous trips. I did not trust my muscle memory not to kick in. It was also prior to GPS, Google maps. For us in For us in California, freeway is a FREEway. Locally, we are starting to have toll express lanes for faster travel. I drove from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh on a toll highway. It was also quite expensive but they give you a ticket when you enter and you are charged by the distance when you exit. Of course clumsy me lost the ticket on our return trip. Thank goodness it was not much more than our exit price would have been.
