Car rental at the Saga Airport

Saga Airport, serviced by several airlines from various destinations, is located 12 km north of Saga City. Offering an array of facilities for a comfortable travel experience, it's the perfect starting point for your exploration of Saga and the surrounding cities.

Driving in Saga

Driving in Japan might be a new experience for a Brit. The cars are right-hand drive and you'll drive on the left side of the road, quite similar to the UK. However, expect to see road signs in both Japanese and English and remember that speed limits are usually lower than in the UK.

Car Rental Services at Saga Airport

Several car rental services are available at Saga Airport, making it easy for you to hire a car as per your requirement. Choose the car class that suits your needs best: compact for budget-friendly travels, large if you carry lots of luggage or van-types for family trips.

Filling Up Your Tank

There are various petrol stations located around the airport region, meaning you can fill up your tank before hitting the road. Japanese petrol stations usually offer both self-service and service types, with full-service stations often offering English guidance.

Local Currency and Climate

Japan uses Yen (¥) as its currency. Credit cards are widely accepted, but it's handy to have cash for small purchases and rural areas. And don't forget, Saga enjoys a temperate climate with mild winters and warm summers - so be sure to pack accordingly!

Exploring Saga

With a rental car at your disposal, the wonders of Saga are just a drive away. Explore Saga City with its many historic sites, indulge in authentic local cuisine, enjoy onsen (hot spring) bathing in Furuyu and Ureshino, or make a detour to the neighbouring cities of Fukuoka and Nagasaki. And for a taste of local culture, don't miss the Saga International Balloon Fiesta, an annual event that fills the skies with colourful hot air balloons.

So whether you're in for the citylights, cultural heritage, nature or hot springs, a rental car makes your journey through Saga convenient and memorable. Get set for an incredible Saga sojourn!
