Cheap National Car Hire in Hiroshima

Before leaving the rental location, inspect the car for any existing damage and ensure it’s documented. Take photos if necessary to avoid disputes when returning the vehicle.

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.

A compact vehicle is easier to park and maneuver in congested city streets.

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.

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

If you have a specific vehicle in mind, opt for rentals that guarantee your chosen car type. This ensures that you receive the vehicle you expect, rather than being offered an alternative.
