booked an airport transfer from kansai airport to Shirahama, a 2 hour plus drive away so was worried won't be able to find a car charter. The company was super responsive with enquiries, confirmed with me 1 week before the date and driver also contacted me in advance. Very easy communication, driver came early to wait for us, was very polite and helpful, and had a very smooth drive. Highly recommend
