We began in 2001 — the year of the September 11 attacks — offering rental mobile phones for travelers heading from the U.S. to Japan. Nothing like it existed at the time, and it has been welcomed by many ever since.

  • If you need a phone number for voice calls

    You'll have a local phone number — ideal for calling offices, government agencies, hospitals, shops, restaurants, banks, and more. It's especially useful where a verification code is sent to your phone: for banking or online shopping, data-only can be inconvenient.

  • If data-only is enough for you

    Access everything online — Google Maps, train timetables, and more. You can also make calls to anyone you're already connected with on LINE, Messenger, and similar apps.

25 years in business · Downtown Los Angeles

Born out of 9/11 — a trusted name in rental connectivity

When the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 halted the inbound business of our parent company, Elephant Tour, we asked ourselves what we could offer travelers heading from the U.S. to Japan. The answer was rental mobile phones in Japan — something no one else was doing at the time. That was where we began.

Since then we've expanded into rental Wi-Fi, SIM, and eSIM, and this year we mark 25 years in business. We look forward to welcoming you on the 5th floor of the Westin Bonaventure Hotel, in the heart of downtown Los Angeles.
