Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Painushima Airport (ISG)?
You can rent a set of wheels from Europcar, which is within easy reach of Painushima Airport (ISG).
What happens if I need to cancel my Iriomote car reservation?
We have good news! You should be given a total refund if you notify us at least six hours prior to the scheduled pickup time. Your confirmation contains details about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid rentals result in a refund though, so you may want to go over your car rental policy.
What types of cars can I rent on Iriomote?
Ease of parking, affordability and superb mileage are among the reasons compact cars are the top choice on Iriomote. Their small size makes them ideal for solo adventurers, couples or road-trippers on a budget. Of course, how you get around the island is up to you! Go even smaller with a mini or economy, or get more legroom with a full-size or an intermediate. Need a little luxury? You'll love our premium options.
What are the top things to do on Iriomote?
There are so many things to see and do on and around Iriomote. And when you get behind the wheel of your rental car, you can explore them at your own pace. Add these awesome destinations to your itinerary:

  • Escape everyday life and get off the beaten path at Iriomote-Ishigaki National Park. You'll love the striking landscapes of this protected natural area.
  • If you'd like some outdoor fun, make sure you visit Mt. Komi. No walk around the block, this hike is perfect for some mid-vacation exercise.
  • Kanpira Waterfall isn't just stunning to look at — it sounds pretty special as well. Find a nice spot to sit, shut your eyes and listen to the water cascading down.

How old do you have to be to rent a car on Iriomote?
If you're at least 18, you can rent a car on Iriomote. Yearning for a luxury coupé to cruise the island roads in style? Check if the rental outlet has higher age limits for these vehicle types. Also take note that most companies charge a young driver's fee.
What do you need to rent a car on Iriomote?
You'll require a credit card in your name and a full, valid driver's license when you pick up your car. You may also require proof of coverage if you choose to decline the outlet's insurance plan. These requirements may change between rental companies, so it's a good idea to check before making a booking.
What side of the road do you drive on on Iriomote?
You'll have to get accustomed to staying on the left on Iriomote. Not only that, you'll be operating a right-hand drive car. All of this could feel a bit daunting at first, so we recommend driving slower than you normally would.
Can I drive in Iriomote with my U.S. Driver's license?
As well as your U.S. License, you may need an International Driving Permit to drive on the island legally. Many rental car companies will ask you to present this document before they hand over the keys. Apply for one in the weeks before you head to the island.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer on Iriomote?
Yes. With Expedia's awesome long-term car rental deals, you don't have to rush your Iriomote vacation. Decide on your dates, secure your favorite ride and then explore the coastal roads at your leisure.
Where can I find an Iriomote car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're younger than 25 and would like to rent some wheels on Iriomote, read over the policies of the various providers. Being a young renter, a surcharge may apply to your reservation and you could be restricted to certain vehicles. Some companies may not rent to under 25s at all. Always check the fine print before confirming your ride.
