How old do you have to be to rent a car in Hikone?
In Hikone, the requirement is generally 18 years and over. Most outlets will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the rental location. Rental policies for young drivers may include restrictions for certain vehicles, such as large cars, and require the purchase of inclusive insurance. It's always a good idea to read the fine print carefully before choosing your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Hikone?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — a valid driver's license and credit card. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
What side of the road do you drive on in Hikone?
People in Hikone drive on the left, and the steering wheel and other controls are on the opposite side to U.S. vehicles. Take some extra time getting to know your new ride before getting on the road.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Hikone?

Where can I find a Hikone car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so you'll have to do a little research. Found a Hikone outlet that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Terrific news! Just be aware that some companies charge extra fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're looking at should have all the information you need.
