The wide, open road is calling your name, and Toyokawa is a fantastic base to kick-start your journey. Located 5 miles from the city center, the first thing you’ll need to pick up is the key to one of our superb rental cars. A full-size car will take you in and around Toyohashi in total comfort — or you might want to venture off the beaten track and explore hidden gems with a sturdy four-wheel drive. For zipping around the city, we’d suggest choosing a mini car. They might not be as roomy, but they’ll be fantastic at maneuvering into those tiny parking lots.
