KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Gatwick

  • Popular attractions like Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, and the British Museum are located in different areas of London Having a rental car lets you easily reach all of these destinations during your stay. At nighttime you’ll also definitely want to check out the hip bars and nightclubs of Soho as well.
  • Gatwick Airport serves customers traveling in and out of Southeast England. For convenience, the airport partners with several car rental agencies to provide them with offices out of the south terminal. A few of the rental car companies operating out of London Gatwick include Sixt, Avis, Budget, and Europcar.
  • While driving in Gatwick you’ll have to become comfortable with driving on the left side of the road. Be sure to drive cautiously and within the speed limits during your stay. Unbeknownst to tourists, cameras are placed all around the city to monitor drivers. Along with speeding, they will also ticket drivers for illegal turns, texting while driving, or not wearing a seatbelt.
  • Traffic jams can be a problem in London. It is especially a challenge in the city’s center from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. To minimize this problem, congestion charge zones have been established. So, if you are driving in this area during business hours, you’ll have to pay a toll.
  • If you're looking to explore with your cheap car rentals in Gatwick, know about the city's key thoroughfares. The primary thoroughfare in the region is the A23, which travels south from London via Crawley and on to Brighton. At Crawley, the A23 splits off into the M23, which then connects directly to the M25 and the rest of the London beltway system. The A24 connects the A23 in Crawley with Worthing to the south, with a branch off to the A217 that leads to the M25 in Reigate. The A2011 leaves Crawley towards Lingfield and then continues on to East Grinstead to the east.
  • When driving your cheap car rentals in Gatwick, look out for the toll roads, which are the city's highways designed to reduce congestion and improve traffic flow. The most well-known of these toll highways is the M25, which links Gatwick Airport to the rest of the UK. Some stretches of this highway are tolled by the operator, Highways England. Gatwick also has a number of other highways that require toll payments to use particular stretches, such as the A23 and the M23 motorways. Highways England is responsible for the management and maintenance of all toll roads, including the maintenance of the surveillance cameras.
  • Gatwick car rentals have a legal rental age limit of 21 years old, according to UK law.

The place is a total scam. PLEASE be very careful if you deal with them, especially at the moment of signing where they will try to distract you In Order to lock you into some crazy extras. Do yourself a favor and bring your business somewhere else. Feel free to read their google reviews and you will see dozens of clients like me that were duped by a very dishonest sales team.

Need to know exactly what car is allocated before the paperwork. Clarify and itemise all types of insurance cover being offered and get agreement from the customer. Refrain from upselling to another category of car

Everything was great from start to finish. We got a nice new SUV as requested, drop and pickup were easy and we got our $250 deposit back with no issues a few days later. Credit card was enough for insurance and we were warned about the risk of not getting additional insurance but not forced to actually take it. Overall amazing experience!

Even though we had coverage from a 3rd part insurance provider they insisted that we left with their basic cover package at $40 extra a day. I sent a few emails and they removed the charge 48hours later and refunded for the 2 days.

They tried to rip me off! didn't provide me with a damage for the existent damage and the employee said will provide it latter but I took pictures before I use the vehicle. Now they are saying the car never been damaged and I have to be charged for the old damages as according to their system the car never been damaged and the vehicle year is 2021! I disputed it and sent my proves but it is very poor management and it is stress and anxiety no needs for me to go through I put down a cheaper options to be with reputable company but National/Enterprise prove me wrong.
