Japan Campers - Campervan Rental

We had an amazing experience with Japan campers. Truely the best way to see parts of Japan that public transport cannot reach. Originally hesitant driving a large long van, but got used to it within 5 minutes.
The van itself was very clean and well maintained. Very friendly staff both English and Japanese speaking.
The Japan campers app was incredibly useful and helped us find places to sleep in rural towns.
We will definitely use Japan campers again.

Traveling Japan with a Campervan is amazing. We were traveling for three weeks with our three children. Japan Campers gave us great tips and thanks to the japancampers app we found the best pitches. Most were free others were very cheap. We had never been to a campsite and had a great time. The car and service from Japan Campers exceeded our expectations. A big recommendation from us!!!

Brilliant service. The van I had was well maintained, clean, and had all the amenities I could want out of a Kei sized camper. The customer care was excellent and communication was perfect. They even helped me with my excess luggage after my trip. Overall, absolutely fantastic, I have no complaints. Worth the time and effort if you want to travel through Japan for yourself.

Japan Campers offers a great opportunity to travel the country away from tourist spots. We are enthusiastic campers and the mini campervan was perfect for city and country. Just right for two people who are not very tall (and like to travel cheaply). The campervan was a completely new model with well thought-out equipment and extra battery. We saw a lot and spent a lot of time in this car, so we had melancholy at the end when we had to return in. A great team is running this business and offers great service. I booked first in 2020 and we all
know what happened next.. still they stayed in contact and we managed everything so that our journey could start in 2023. Thank you for our wonderful stay. Can only recommend it!

Rented a camper from Japan Campers for a ~10 day ski trip around Honshu. We rented their biggest one, which was great for 2 adults and 2 kids. The camper itself was awesome, it is fairly small by non-Japanese standards, but had enough storage for our skis and boards (we put them inside a 190cm ski bag), had a diesel heater to stay warm at night, and best of all had a heated drying room that was accessible from both inside and outside the camper so you can load your wet boots and gear in and out without struggling inside the camper.

Honestly this is THE best way to do a ski trip in Honshu, because you can usually sleep right near the lifts and you can chase the snow to wherever is best. Has a little burner you can cook on if you’re trying to live cheaply too.

Michael and the Japan Campers crew were also super friendly and accommodating, and made life easy for us (eg by letting us leave a couple of bags at their HQ). Would recommend for sure.

We had a great experience with Japan Campers! Great service, the van was perfect, we were travelling in winter and used a diesel heater that was installed in the van which was great. 5 stars

Highly recommended to rent a camper at Japan Campers. Very nice service, Michal had picked us up from the train (and dropped us off at the airport after our trip). We are a family of 3 and rented the 'big motorhome' so we had some extra space (the camper has 2 x double beds). Everything you need is in the camper or Japan Campers can arrange it for you! Thanks Maikel + team!

We use these guys time and time again, they are so helpful and friendly. The campers are well kitted out for all your camping needs and they are super comfy. The best way to explore Japan. Thankyou to Michael and the team. Absolute legends !

Great communication prior to arrival, pick up organised from the airport, super organised at hand over of the van. The van itself was great, especially liked the space and the thought that had gone into everything in the van. The extra bonus is the pad with WiFi, makes life so much easier driving in Japan. Campervan life in Japan is amazing!

Me and my best friend started our two-week adventure in July by renting a campervan from Japan Campers, and it turned out to be an absolutely unforgettable experience. Our journey through Japan was a delightful exploration, made even better by the well-equipped camper that had everything we needed. Despite its compact size, the camper offered just enough room for two people and their backpacks.

What truly stood out was the thoughtful inclusion of an iPad as part of the rental package, filled with valuable tips on must-visit places and information about free campsites.

The team at Japan Campers deserves special mention for their exceptional service. Their willingness to assist at any moment, should any issues arise during the journey, provided us with peace of mind. Our time with Japan Campers was truly extraordinary, and we wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone looking to explore Japan in this unique and adventurous way.

We're already looking forward to returning for an extended trip. See you again soon, Japan Campers!

Warm regards,
Julia & Emily

We experienced Japan Campers as a very competent and easy to communicate company. The campervan was exactly as described. In addition, many gadget like the informations on their website and the iPad facilitated our trip in Japan.
We booked a « budget camper » last minute and were able to take advantage of a discount. The camper was fully equipped and left nothing to be desired even in the cold temperatures in wintery Hakuba valley. The contact beforehand with Toshimi as well as the introduction and support afterwards with Michal were super friendly and very professional. Michal was also always available during our trip for questions or in case of problems. In addition, we were allowed to stay one night for free in their nice japanese guesthouse on site before the rental started.
Our high expectations were even exceeded by Japan Campers. Absolutely recommend!

We booked the Miniature Campervan Wink Plus for three weeks in March and April. The completion was very fast and easy, the guidance was very good and everyone was super friendly and helpful, we got picked up from the train station and introduced in everything we need to know: How japans streets are working, what we have to do in certain situations and what the van is able to do. And that was very much! The iPad that was included showed us beautiful places and, most important , showed us the battery of the car so we knew all the time when it’s low on power to put our devices off the plug right on time. Also our heating blanket that we got included for free worked with the battery and saved us from lots of cold nights. In short, we enjoyed the whole trip through the countryside and felt pretty safe with Japan campers and especially with Michals support over the time. So we definitely recommend japan campers and will come back to them for our next trip to japan.

Japan Campers is an awesome camper van rental company.

We rented a van for 3 weeks and we were more than happy with the van itself but also with the incredibly helpful and friendly service the Japan Camper Team provides.

For us there couldn’t have been a better camper rental experience.

We can deeply recommend Japan Campers to anyone looking forward to renting a van in Japan!

And again a big thank you to the Japan Campers team!

We have had a fantastic trip around Japan for three weeks, where the cherry blossoms were so beautiful. We have felt very safe having rented a camper from Japan Campers. Everything has been so proper, so many thanks to them.

Really nice experience! Simple, easy, uncomplicated booking/paying/communication although I asked for a van really late 😅
Highly recommended! If I'll be in Japan again in the future I will book a van from Japan Campers for sure again!

We hired a camper van for 2 weeks from Japan Campers in August 2023 and roamed all over Tohoku. They are a terrific company to deal with; professional and easy going (in a most un-Japanese manner!). Super clear instructions for foreigners to work out what’s what, and then on your way. The app they have created is your starting point but complement it with your own discovery of what Japan offers outside of its major cities. Would happily use them again if we were to return to Japan (for a fourth time).

Just finished 2 weeks of travelling in this small “Nissan Bross”. It has been 2 amazing weeks starting with the good service from JC. Pickup at station,introduction to iPad, car etc. Was just perfect. They have a friendly and relaxed tone which we liked a lot. The car is old and small and travelling 2 adults and 2 children is a challenge, but really funny and our own decision, that we did not rent a bigger car. We will definitely recommend booking a small car because the roads are really narrow. Not only in the city.
After leaving the office we found a crack in a window and when we returned the car we told that it was there from the beginning and they trusted us.
A really good experience. We will recommend to everybody.

Awesome crew - huge thanks to Andre, Toshimi and Michael for their efforts. We rented “Bross” for three weeks. Everything ran smoothly and the bonus of them offering transport to/from Narita is super handy. Would certainly use their vans again!

everything worked great. the pick-up at the public transport was very relaxed. overall we felt very welcome. the campervan has everything you need. japan is a great country for campers. on the last day we had one more night in the guest house. was great too!! Finally, a nice transfer to the airport. We will be back definitely

I rented one of the budget mid sized vans with a friend for most of February. The van was great, the overnight heater worked really well, and it was well stocked for cooking. The winter tyres were so grippy, didn't need to use the chains that were included at all and we drove through pretty deep snow at times. The staff made the pickup and drop off process really easy!! No complaints what so ever, I would definitely go back!!!
