Cheap Budget Car Hire in Izumo

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

Before renting a car, check if your personal car insurance covers rental losses. Many personal auto insurance policies and credit cards offer coverage for rentals, which could save you from extra insurance fees.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Izumo, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

Car-sharing services can be a flexible and cost-effective solution for brief journeys.

Using a GPS or navigation app can help you avoid traffic jams and find efficient routes.

Being aware of gas stations ensures you won't run low during your travels.

Many rental companies require payment by credit card and may not accept debit cards. If you only have a debit card, check the rental company's payment policies in advance and look for suitable options.

Familiarize yourself with local habits to enhance your safety and compliance on the road.
