FAQ
Please feel free to contact us for any questions or inquiries that cannot be solved by the frequently asked questions.
Can anyone borrow it?
We are very sorry, but we are limited to customers who are 23 years old or older. In addition, we will give priority to family reservations. p>
We would like to share the deeper enjoyment and joy with our customers by making their hobby “life with a camper”.
We want more customers to use the camper in a long and comfortable environment, and of course we do daily maintenance and cleaning, but above all, we want many customers to treat it carefully. We believe that it will lead to a satisfying environment, so we appreciate your understanding. p>
Isn’t it difficult to drive?
Campers are often seen as large vehicles, but in most cases they are treated as ordinary vehicles. You should always pay attention to the height, but if you drive a normal car frequently, you can get used to the width of the car immediately.
The camper vans we have prepared are called “CRESSON Evolite”, which is said to be the royal road of camper vans, but the base is based on the car called “Cam Road” made by Toyota. Even when compared with the same Toyota’s popular model “Alphard”, I do not feel a special size numerically.
CRESSON Evolite | Alphard | |
length | 499 cm | 491 cm |
width | 207 cm | 185 cm |
height | 291 cm | 185 cm |
Minimum turning radius | 490 cm | 560 cm |
Riding capacity | 7 people | 8 people |
Is the highway charge large?
No, you can use it at the regular car rate.
You can also use ETC, a system unique to Japan, to settle highway tolls.
A special credit card is required, but we have credit cards available for rental at our store.
Tolls are charged only for the amount used after the car is returned.
There are limited numbers available for rental, so please inquire in advance.
Can I use electricity and heating even if the engine is stopped?
The electric capacity and charging performance vary depending on the model, so please contact us for details.
In the summer, there are many opportunities to use air conditioners (cooling), but we have many models in our shop that are equipped with home air conditioners. However, to use the air conditioner (cooling) for a long time, you will need to use a facility that can connect to an “external power source” such as an auto camping site or RV park.
Even if the power is low, we use a method of charging while driving, so you can use it with peace of mind even for long-term travel plans.
On the other hand, the heating is equipped with heating equipment such as a Babestos FF heater that can be used even when the engine is turned off, so you can rest in a warm environment without starting the engine even in parking lots at ski resorts.
How do I receive my camper?
For customers who are traveling to Japan, we offer a paid option to deliver the camper to your Tokyo hotel, Shinkansen station, or Narita Airport when you rent or return the camper.
Considering the hassle of transporting large luggage with your family, this is a great deal.
For Tokyo hotels or stations, it’s an additional 5,000 yen one way.
For Narita Airport, it’s an additional 10,000 yen one way.
This can be added to the camper rental fee.
Can I bring my pet?
It is possible to use it on some vehicles.
However, we have set certain conditions for use, so “ About pet riding “.
In addition, smoking in the car is prohibited for all models due to the idea of maintaining the environment.
How many people can be used at one time?
“Riding capacity” and “sleeping capacity” differ depending on the vehicle type. We recommend that the number of people actually riding is less than the capacity.
Vehicle type | Riding capacity | Sleeping capacity |
CRESSON Evolite made by Nuts | 7 people | 6 people |
AtoZ AMITY rear bunk bed | 6 people | 6 people |
WOHN EXCLUSIVE | 6 people | 6 people |
MYS Mystic Mini POP Bee | 4 people | 4 people |
The above is the capacity setting by the manufacturer.
How much luggage can you put in?
Many people travel with about 4 to 5 large suitcases.
Since you tend to have a lot of luggage when traveling, it is best to choose a vehicle model that is about the number of people using the vehicle plus 3 more.
Number of users | Recommended car models | Passenger capacity |
2 adults | AMITY Rear Two-stage bet | 6 people |
2 adults, 2 children | AMITY Rear Two-stage bet | 6 people |
4 or more adults | CRESSON Evolite | 7 people |
