This winter, my husband and I set off on a trip full of firsts. It was our first time driving in Japan during winter, our first time seeing so much snow, and our first Japan campervan journey. What followed was four unforgettable days that took us from snowy onsen towns to a surprising glimpse of early spring—showing us just how rewarding winter campervan travel in Japan can be.
Things to Know Before Renting a Campervan in Japan Traveling around Japan in a campervan has become increasingly popular, and I can totally see why. It gives you the ultimate sense of freedom like bringing your own little home on wheels. You can go wherever you want, at your own pace, without stressing over hotel check-ins or fixed schedules.
This summer, I wanted to experience Japan differently. Instead of staying in hotels or taking trains, I rented a campervan from Roam & Roll Campervan Japan and hit the road around Tokyo with a mission in mind: to wish for love and romance!
Have you always dreamed of experiencing Japan’s legendary powder snow—also known as Japow—but felt hesitant about driving in snowy conditions or camping in the cold? This guide will show you how winter campervan travel in Japan is not only possible but also incredibly rewarding with the right tips and preparation.
