KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Sunbury-on-Thames

  • Car hire in Sunbury-on-Thames offers a greater level of flexibility compared to if you travel using alternative transport methods, such as bus or train. This means you can come and go as you please, rather than waiting on public transport timetables, whilst you also are able to go directly to your destination. For instance, you can travel to Woking by car in about 35min. If you were to take a train, it would take in excess of 1 hour and also require changes along the way.
  • London Heathrow Airport (LHR) is around 8 km (5 miles) away from Sunbury-on-Thames, so it’s a good location to collect your hired car from. After passing through immigration and collecting your bags, you’ll find a wide selection of car hire companies to pick from. For instance, Sur Price is located in the airport Arrivals area, whilst Green Motion can be reached via a free shuttle service.

  • Using car hire in Sunbury-on-Thames, you’ll see that it’s a busy commuter town outside of London, which is also popular with tourists. Be wary of people crossing the road in places which aren’t marked as pedestrian crossings, as there is no law in place in the UK that prohibits jaywalking.

To ensure the safety of cyclists on the road, you should regularly check your mirrors, especially when approaching a turn or roundabout.
  • When driving a Sunbury-on-Thames hire car you’ll find the roads can be very congested with locals, tourists and airport traffic. The congestion is enhanced during rush hour, when locals travel to and from their place of work. Rush hour starts at about 8:00 to 9:00 in the morning and again at 17:00 to 18:00 in the evening. To avoid the busiest times on the roads, you should drive in the late morning and early afternoon. The M3 is one of the busiest roads in the area, as it passes right through the centre of the town.
