Yes, our campervans can be used for trips to ski resorts that are accessible with snow tires and normal winter road conditions.
However, please note that our vehicles are not specially equipped for extreme winter environments, so they are not suitable for areas with heavy snowfall such as Hokkaido or remote mountain regions.
Ski resorts with easy access from major highways are generally suitable for travel by campervan.

Additionally, please refrain from traveling to Hokkaido in our campervans during the winter months.

Minimum rental periods vary depending on the season and travel dates, typically ranging from 4 to 10 days. For the best campervan experience, we recommend traveling for two weeks or longer, allowing you to explore Japan more comfortably and at your own pace.

Yes, our campervans can be used for trips to ski resorts that are accessible with snow tires and normal winter road conditions.
However, please note that our vehicles are not specially equipped for extreme winter environments, so they are not suitable for areas with heavy snowfall such as Hokkaido or remote mountain regions.

Yes, you can absolutely enjoy traveling in a campervan during the summer. Summer in Japan offers beautiful scenery, vibrant festivals, and plenty of outdoor activities.However, temperatures can become quite high, especially in popular cities such as Kyoto, Osaka, and Hiroshima, so we generally do not recommend visiting these areas during midsummer.Instead, we recommend exploring regions such as Tohoku, Hokkaido, or the Japanese Alps, where you can enjoy cooler temperatures, breathtaking natural scenery, and a more comfortable campervan experience.

Expressways (Highways) : 100km/h
National Roads: up to 60km/h  Please follow the signs.

An ETC card is used to pay highway tolls automatically in Japan. It allows you to pass through ETC toll gates without stopping, making your road trip faster, easier, and more convenient.

We highly recommend renting an ETC card, especially if you plan to travel long distances or use expressways frequently during your trip.

It’s a great place for a campervan road trip in all seasons. April, with its beautiful cherry blossoms, is warm and pleasant; May, October, and November are especially pleasant in the car, with temperatures neither too high nor too low. In April, May, September October, and November, temperatures are neither too high nor too low, so you will feel especially comfortable in your car. In particular, September to November is best time of year because of the relatively large number of sunny days and beautiful autumn foliage. In summer, you can enjoy the natural coolness of the mountains at high altitudes. However, since the temperature does not drop even at night in summer, be careful where you go, such as staying at campgrounds near high elevation areas.

We were able to discover hidden gems that we would have never been able to access without the van! We also slept right on a lake, overlooking Mount Fuji, which wouldn’t have been possible without the van!

Aliza

We took a trip in a Travellers Autobarn Japan vehicle to explore the great outdoors of Japan. Our first campervan trip in Japan was very comfortable and everything was a pleasant memory. Everything from picking up the car to returning it was smooth.

Daniel

My first trip to Japan was a great decision renting a campervan with Travellers Autobarn. Everything was perfect for two couples traveling together. Everything we needed for our trip was in the car and it was our cozy home when we came back from climbing mountains and sightseeing. We will definitely be back!

Leah

It was a great experience!!! The car and staff were very nice and I have nothing to complain about. Next time I come back to Japan, I want to ride around the whole island in Japan by a campervan!
