KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Nagano

  • Japan does have transport systems but they can’t get you everywhere; with Nagano car hire, you can travel to wherever you want. Nagano is relatively easy to get around, so you can drive the streets at any time and won’t have to limit your sense of adventure. You can drive up to a lookout with your favourite meal, park and enjoy the view. You can also tour away from the city and stay somewhere else for a night or two.
  • Planning a car hire in Nagano? You will find the airport car hire dealers on the arrivals floor, and you can have the car delivered if you book in advance. When you are dropping the car off, be sure to do it 30min prior to your flight at the latest. Sometimes you want to check out the area before you unpack. If you hire a car at the airport, you don't have to head straight to your hotel; you can go exploring or grab a bite.
  • People drive on the left in Japan, so it pays to get to know your car before you go anywhere, as the windscreen wipers and blinkers may be on the opposite side. Reverse parking is the most common way to park, and the hazard lights can be used to thank someone for letting you in and vice versa or also for slowing down in traffic congestion. Expect snow to be on the ground between November to April, so if you have not driven in snow before, then you will need to understand the extra care needed and dangers associated with it. Snow tyres are fitted as standard between November and May.
  • If you come across a train line on the road, you must stop and look both ways before proceeding, as they don't all have signals that a train is coming. If you are considering car hire in Nagano but are travelling around Japan, make sure you plan your route, as toll roads in Japan can cost as much as a flight across it. But you can always take the more picturesque route and enjoy the views.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Nagano for $58 or less
  • Book your rental car in Nagano at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

FAQs about renting a car in Nagano

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Nagano?

    The streets in Japan can be quite narrow, so you may be better off hiring a smaller car if you are used to wide roads; that way, you don't have to worry and you can enjoy your holiday.

  • What’s the speed limit in Nagano?

    Keep an eye on your speed limit whilst driving a car hire in Nagano, as they drive a lot slower than most countries, even when on open highways. You also have maximum and minimum speed signs displayed together, the minimum has a line under it. Some road signs will have an English translation but not all, so better it is to familiarise yourself with the major signs first, such as stop and slow down.

  • Where are the best places to park in Nagano?

    When parking your Nagano car hire, just remember parking signs look similar to the ‘do not enter’ signs but with a blue background. If it has a blue background and a red cross or a vertical slash through it, that means no parking. Actual parking signs are blue with white writing and give the time allowed to park. Most parking in Nagano and other built-up areas are in metered car parks, some of which have a security boom gate.
