Information on Gatwick Airport Car Hire

Car Hire in London ­ Gatwick Airport

Compare prices and save money on your car hire in London ­ Gatwick Airport

The London­Gatwick Airport (LGW) is, after Heathrow, the second most important London airport. It is located 45 km south of the English capital city. The airport is composed of two terminals, North and South. Terminal North is provided with a walkway that links it to the remaining gates (which otherwise would be served only by some specific buses.) The airport is linked by routes 9A and M3 (the latter brings you straight to London). Gatwick airport has a very organised area for renting cars, where you will find the desks of the most important car hire agencies like Budget, Hertz, Alamo and Europcar. By taking advantage of Gocarhire.co.uk’s services, you can reserve your car by your place so that the only thing you need to do is collectyour car. In this way, you can avoid queues and save precious time. To collect your car, it is enough to show a valid ID, your driving license, and our reservation voucher.

What to do in London ­ Gatwick Airport

Each of the thirty­two London boroughs has something peculiar that makes it worth a visit. Renting a car can ease your mind with regards to taxicabs or costly and crowded public transportation. In this way, you can also find accommodation far from the city center, thus saving money and using your car to reach the many beauties in town. London will dazzle you for days with every kind of attraction, such as Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, the Parliament, St Paul’s Cathedral, the London Tower with itsCrown Jewels,, Buckingham Palace, Covent Garden, Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre, Harrods, the Thames River cruise. On the other hand, you may want to visit some of the amazing city museums, namely the British Museum and the National Gallery. Finally, if the weather is good enough, you can stroll around Hyde Park, Regent’s Park, and St James, arguably the best green spaces in London.

Must­see

  • National Gallery

  • Crawley Museum

  • Tilgate Park
