Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Kanazawa car reservation?
We know that plans can change unexpectedly. That's why many prepaid reservations offer a full refund if you cancel six hours prior to the collection time. Your rental agreement should include all the details you need. If you can't find the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is always available.
What types of cars can I rent in Kanazawa?
Not too small and not too big, compact vehicles are the number one choice for many visiting motorists in Kanazawa. With excellent gas mileage and easy manoeuvrability and parking, they're ideal for cruising around the city. A compact car offers slightly more room than an economy vehicle, which means you can cruise around in a bit more comfort. Prefer something bigger? Browse our standard, intermediate and full-size options.

Kanazawa is full of adventures, but don't restrict yourself to just the one place. Pick up a set of wheels and hit the open road to see what's in the surrounding region. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • Ito is roughly 64 kilometres from Kanazawa. Well-known attractions like Izu Oceanic Park deserve to be high on your must-see list here.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kanazawa?
The minimum age to rent a car in Kanazawa is 18. A surcharge for young drivers applies, so check before you book and take into account any additional costs. There could also be restrictions on the car categories that can be rented by young drivers. For example, some companies will only rent out small to medium-sized cars to less-experienced motorists. Rules may be different between companies, so look over the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Kanazawa?
Most of the time, all you'll need is a current driver's licence and credit card in your name when picking up the vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be required if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance policy. These requirements often differ between suppliers, so it's always a good idea to check the terms and conditions.
What side of the road do you drive on in Kanazawa?
Unlike the States, people in Kanazawa drive on the left. Having the driver's seat and controls like indicators on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Take a moment to familiarise yourself with the vehicle and its quirks before hitting the road.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Kanazawa?
Expedia makes it a snap to score a quality long-term car rental in Kanazawa. Just head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip details and compare the offers.
Where can I find a Kanazawa car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Kanazawa outlets will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll need to do your homework. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
