Door-to-door transfers, flexible stops and room for luggage: when a private vehicle makes sense in Japan.
What is a private tour with driver?
A vehicle and English-speaking driver are reserved for your group for the day or for transfers. You avoid crowded trains and luggage handling, and you can stop for photos along scenic routes such as the Fuji Five Lakes.
When it is worth it
- Families with children, parents or heavy luggage.
- Day trips with several stops, such as Hakone and Mt. Fuji.
- Late arrivals when public transport is limited.
- Groups of four to ten who can share the cost of a vehicle.
Vehicles
Our fleet includes Toyota Alphard and Hiace vehicles, and SUV options. See genuine photos of the cabins, luggage space and vehicles on our Our Fleet page.
Driver or guide?
A driver focuses on safe, punctual transport and local route knowledge. Some itineraries include a guide for specific sights, so check which days include one before you book.
What to prepare
Share your group size, number of suitcases, pickup points and flight timings. We plan the right vehicle and buffer times around them.
