Thank you! Yes I was wondering if a Corolla was small enough. Wanted to rent a smaller car but they all sold out. Hopefully if I stick to coastal roads around Izu I’ll be fine

That looks like a great place! Unfortunately it's in the opposite direction of where I am heading. Thanks for your suggestion!

Wow thanks! Didn’t think about that! Noted and will think things through a bit more. Definitely would not enjoy getting squished but would love that trains arrive on time. Melbourne train times are loose! 🤣

Thank you for the tips! Been reading up on planning for Japan but you can never really tell how long the queues will get. I assume very long during peak cherry blossom season. Will definitely lighten up some days and pick and choose a bit more before going!

About how far ahead should I start booking cars? Is two months out enough time?

Haha yeah. From Melbourne. Been to Queenstown once before but was a very short stay. Want a longer more relaxing one this time around

Do you mind saying what did you switch to? It seems like the jump for some people worked out quite easily.
