"Considering other options to trains / buses between Hakuba (Happo-one) and Kyoto.
1. Is there a private shuttle service which 4 adults could hire to make the trip?
2. Is there a car rental service, where we could collect a car in Hakuba and drop off in Kyoto?
Travelling in early March
Many Thanks

Link to a forum : Car rental USA (quick goodbye)

First comment from this forum :

"Have any of you lot rented a car in the states previously? If so, anyone got any advice on companies to go with or tips on stuff to do/avoid? Dont really know that much about how it all works, whether you can pick up and drop off in different states etc, and i find it best to have anecdotal evidence from people that have done it before then trawling the company websites.

I'm going on a road trip around the US in September with a couple of mates and so its a bit of a crucial part to get right :)

Second question: Does anyone know much about driving regulations over there? I'm 26 and i've been driving since I was 18 so I'm sure i'll be fine in terms of rental and insurance, but one mate is in the process of learning right now. Have you got to have been driving for a certain length of time before you can drive over there?

Any stories/advice appreciated!"

" I have never been to Japan before and neither speak nor read Japanese. I will be travelling with a four year old and a two year old and really need good advice as to how to get from Narita to Yokosuka. Our flight arrives at 6:30am and even though there is a direct train (3hr plus trip) to Yokosuka, I do not know if this is the best option for us. Everyone I know has tried to discourage me from driving but I can't help but think that at least then the kids will be restrained instead of possibly running around madly on a train. I am also concerned with the fact that it will be peak hour and what about the crush of people? My plan was to catch the Airport limousine bus to Yokohama City Air Terminal (YCAT) and hire a car from there but as I am not familiar with the area, I do not know where the closest Hertz office would be so instead, I plan to catch the bus to Haneda and drive from there. It apparently puts me about 1 - 1 1/2 hours away from my destination which doesn't seem so daunting if I drive. This way, I also miss the peak hour traffic from Narita, someone else is doing the driving.
I would really appreciate any and all advice that any of you are willing to offer.
Thank you in advance,
