 # We highly recommend to use a car to access MORIKAZE because you will need it for local transportation while staying.

(No Uber nor Lyft is available)

  • The local area around MORIKAZE is country side, so you can expect less traffic, wider road and larger parking space. No worries about the coin parking if you are just driving around MORIKAZE or in Kyonan Town. 

 # For travelers from outside of Japan, please check the following videos about how to rent and drive a car in Japan.

  • We recommend to get the ETC option when you rent a car. It will provide discounts on toll highways and being able to pass through the express lanes at toll gates on highways. (Some videos saying to use the normal lane, though.)
