With OrangeSmile, an early booking is the best way to save on rental costs, since our car rental rates in Kyoto increase with approaching pick-up date. While our confirmation arrives just in 5-20 minutes, we advise to make your booking in Japan at least a few days before the desired rental date.

Prior to making a booking, carefully read the rental conditions for the selected car in Kyoto. Knowing the actual conditions helps to avoid surprises at the rental desk.

Make sure that you know at which exact location in Kyoto the car should be picked up - for this, check the address in your voucher. In some cases, rental companies in Japan meet their clients in a pre-defined spot (e.g. fuel station). However, commonly you should just register at the front office.

Valid credit cards are accepted for payment by every rental office in Kyoto. In general, car rental companies in Japan do not accept cash, debit cards and e-cards (VISA ELECTRON).

The documents provided to you in Kyoto by the rental officer should be carefully inspected. Check the car type, payment amount, taxes, included services and Japan border crossing conditions. In case of inconsistencies and problems detected, call us by the number specified in the rental voucher.

We, at OrangeSmile.com, wish you a fantastic time and experience in Kyoto!

Kyoto: topics

Another must-have while in Kyoto is trying yourself as a samurai. Of course, it won't be possible to become a true warrior - training takes many years - but you can still try. Such an opportunity is provided by tours from Kyoto Samurai Experience. Well, those who want to feel like a ninja will be delighted with Ninja Dojo and Store where they can attend classes on how to become almost invisible. Another unchanged symbol of Japan is the tea ceremony, which has many rules and traditions; you can learn them all in Tea Ceremony Koto. Another great activity that Kyoto can offer is visiting Japanese cooking classes. Uzuki Cooking Class would be the best option in this case.

Kyoto Terrsa is visited by those wishing to swim in the pool, work out in the gym, watch an interesting concert or match. VR clubs are very popular throughout Japan, and Kyoto's most popular club is Ninja VR Kyoto - here you can try yourself as a ninja, if you didn't succeed in being "inconspicuous" in physical reality. Golf clubs are not really common in Kyoto. However, for tourists who can not live without the favorite game here is Kyoto Ohara Public Course. To enjoy playing paintball or laser tag in the cultural capital of Japan, go to Sector 5 Center.
