Okayama Airport, nestled in the southern part of Okayama Prefecture, serves as a perfect starting point to a rewarding journey across western Japan. Surrounded by scenic spots like Kibiji cycling road, Korakuen Garden, and the Okayama Castle, this area promises a delightful first encounter with the country's fascinating culture and vast natural beauty.
Conveniently located within the airport terminal are several car rental services, including TOYOTA Rent a Car, Times Car RENTAL, Nippon Rent-A-Car, and others. Get behind the wheel right after you land - just book in advance or at the counter upon arrival.
Generally, compact and economy cars are recommended for their fuel efficiency and ease of navigation in Japan's typically narrow roads. However, if you plan to venture in the mountainous regions, a 4WD might be a better fit for your trip.
Okayama Airport is approximately 18km away from Okayama city center, which you can reach via Route 2 and Route 30. Major cities like Hiroshima and Osaka are also within a comfortable drive, thanks to Japan's well-maintained road networks.
There are several petrol stations near the airport, including Cosmo Gas Station and Eneos. They're open for long hours, and some are operational 24/7, allowing you to fill up at your convenience.
Japanese driving rules differ from the UK's. They drive on the left side of the road, and their steering wheel is on the right side - just like in Britain. However, you'll want to pay extra attention to signage as some traffic signs might look unfamiliar.
Make sure to have some yen (JPY), Japan's official currency, for on-the-road essentials. As for weather, Okayama has a mild and comfortable climate; however, winters can be cold (with occasional snowfall), while summers reach high temperature and humidity levels.
If you're willing to drive a bit, definitely visit the picturesque city of Kurashiki, famous for its well-preserved Edo-era streets and buildings. Or perhaps take a detour to the Seto Inland Sea town of Naoshima, known for its highly-regarded modern art museums.
Armed with this information, you're ready to pick up the pace and start your fantastic journey in the Land of the Rising Sun. Get ready for an unforgettable experience!
