KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Osaka
- One of the main reasons that so many visitors to this city choose car rentals in Osaka is that it gives them easy access to so many fantastic destinations in the area. Places like Osaka Castle, Universal Studios Japan, Dotonbori, and the Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan are quite easy to access in your rental car. While taking a taxi every once in a while might be all right on a trip like this, constantly using taxis to visit all these spots will run up a considerable cost on your trip.
- When you want to get Osaka car rentals at an airport in the area, your best bet will be the Osaka International Airport (ITM). At this airport, there are rental services provided by about five different rental companies. Every one of these companies has a service counter on the ground floor in the back of the North Terminal, and all of the cars you can rent are just outside in the parking lot next to the terminal.
- In Japan, car rentals in Osaka drive on the left-hand side of the road. Adjust to this change and stay on the left side while driving. Be aware that some highways and expressways in Japan are tolled. Watch out for pedestrians and cyclists, especially in busy areas and near pedestrian crossings. It is strictly prohibited to drive under the influence of alcohol in Japan. The legal blood alcohol concentration limit is 0.03%, so refrain from drinking and driving.
- Weekday mornings between approximately 7:30 am and 9:00 am can experience increased traffic on main roads leading into the city center, such as the Hanshin Expressway and Midosuji Avenue.

Smaller cars are generally more maneuverable and easier to park in crowded areas. Choose a car with good fuel efficiency to help save on fuel costs, as well as to be environmentally conscious. Consider renting a car with a built-in GPS navigation system or ensure you have a reliable navigation app on your smartphone.

On expressways and highways in the Osaka area, the speed limit can range from 55 km/h (35 mph) to 110 km/h (65 mph). It's important to note that speed limits can be strictly enforced in Japan, and exceeding the speed limit can result in fines or penalties.

There are numerous paid parking lots available throughout Osaka, particularly in commercial areas and near popular attractions. These lots are usually operated by private companies and have hourly or daily rates. Most of these lots will charge about ¥100 ($0.71) per hour to park.

Costs vary depending on the location of the lot, but a good rule of thumb is that you will pay about ¥200 ($1.42) for one hour.

2.0 Poor
Apr. 2021
Pros:
Nothing!Cons:
We reserved a minivan (Toyota Verso) on the Kayak website, and when we arrived at the pick-up location (Osaka Kansai Airport) we found out that the car company only stocks small cars which were not suitable for my 6 person family. This would have forced us to pay double the price just to rent two small cars. This was absurd! The car company blamed Kayak for false advertisement, since they don’t even stock minivans. We ended up canceling the reservation and just taking the bus, since it was a much cheaper option that renting two small cars. Not sure if I will ever use Kayak again due to this family vacation fiasco.6.0 Okay
Feb. 2018
Pros:
The car is good for cityCons:
I called in using an international mobile to mention i will be 30mins late as the GPS (in Japanese) took me to another route and they said yes yes and ok on the phone but when we arrived they insisted to charge me for 30 mins. This is a first for me with Hertz.Times

Pros:
Renting a car in Japan is a little adventurous, if only because one drives on the left and directions in Japanese are not so easy to follow if one doesn't speak and read that language. That is why having the rental car company switch the built-in GPS to English without extra cost and even without getting asked is a significant customer service achievement! The vehicle was ready at the appointed time, it took very little time to complete the paperwork (I had done this before, and the agent spoke just enough English for everything but to be smooth), and the return was equally unproblematic. I can highly recommend Times Car Rental.Cons:
There were no problems of any kind.9 locations in Osaka
