SIXT services in Tokyo

When choosing a Tokyo car hire, the first thing to consider is the length of your trip and where you plan on driving the car. For instance, a 4x4 vehicle is perfect for mountain trips or winter driving, while a saloon car will give you additional space and comfort within the city. The next step is to choose the hire period, such as a one-day rental for a day trip getaway or a long-term rental which is more flexible, economical and ideal for longer stays. Bookable extras such as a sat nav or an additional driver will also enhance your experience as you try to navigate unknown roads.

What to do while in Tokyo

Tokyo offers endless activities and sights, but some that are not to be missed include the Senso-ji Buddhist temple which is dedicated to the goddess of mercy, and the Meiji Jingu shrine that is in the district of Shibuya. Don’t forget to attend a Japanese tea ceremony and visit some Izakaya taverns to try the local food. For a day trip, drive your car hire to Mount Mitake and spend some time in nature.

If you have difficulty finding the shop ask for Orix rent a car, as this is a partner of Sixt. Always look over the car before driving off.

We came here for car rental. People who helped us were very friendly. However, it's not possible to rent a car without a Japanese international driving licence or an official translation of another international driving license. It's just Japanese policy, not of Sixt. So we chose an alternative.
