Like to do the off the beaten path kinda of stuff. Has anyone had any experience with driving and exploring Japan. Been looking at websites for camper vans ECT.
THANKS

I looked into it for my trip a few years back. Driving gives a lot more freedom, but driving in the city can be pretty disorientating. I considered renting a vehicle from outside the city. Using a Shoshinsha mark (Japanese version of a N at the back). Getting a internationals drivers permit from BCAA. Youtubing driving in Japan really helped get the nuances of the roads and familiarization of the symbols.
Good luck on the camper rental. Report back on how it went.
Edit: Found some more resources on driving.
