About Reservations

Please tell me how to make a reservation.

You can make a reservation online or by phone (050-3537-5678).
For online reservations, please click the "Apply" button found on the specific details page for the event.
Check the calendar for availability on your desired date and click on it; then, simply follow the on-screen instructions.
A reservation confirmation page will appear once the process is complete.
Please print this confirmation page or make a note of your reservation number.
The reservation number is also included in the "Reservation Confirmation Email" sent after the booking is finalized.

We’d like to book as a group (of five or more people); will we have to split up into separate taxis?

For larger groups, we also offer jumbo taxis (9-passenger capacity).

By when should I make a reservation?

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the current difficulty in securing reservations.
We kindly ask that you check the available dates on the reservation page before booking.
Dates marked with an "X" or a dash (—) are either fully booked or have no scheduled service.
Please note that if you book on short notice—such as the day before—we may be unable to accommodate your preferred time, even if a vehicle is available; therefore, we recommend booking well in advance.

What are the payment methods?

Please make your payment using one of the methods below when applying.

[Credit Cards: VISA, MasterCard, JCB / Bank Transfer: Rakuten Bank, Japan Post Bank, Hyakujushi Bank]

What happens if I forget my reservation number?

You may check in using the name of the group representative. Please note that you may be asked to present identification when boarding.

Do you have rates for children?

There is no child fare for the Udon Taxi; the price is per vehicle.
