KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Westbury

  • Car rentals in Westbury provide freedom to explore the city and the surrounding attractions at your pace. Unlike public transport operating on fixed schedules, a rental car lets you visit city attractions and beyond on your schedule. Public transport in Westbury is also limited in terms of frequency and routes; therefore, having a rental car will give you the advantage of reaching destinations hardly accessible by public transport, including Old Westbury Gardens with stunning gardens, woodlands, a mansion, and formal terraces, Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park featuring beautiful gardens and walking trails, and Long Island's Child Museum with which a car will offer hassle-free visit when visiting with children.
  • Westbury has three main airports nearby: John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) is approximately 18 miles away, LaGuardia Airport (LGA) is roughly 24 miles away, and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) is about 48 miles away.

The roads in the city are a mix of wide and narrow, with most of the highways being wide and well-maintained and residential streets having narrower roads.

Ensure you also watch out for bike lanes and give cyclists enough space when sharing the road.
  • Westbury experiences rush hours during work commutes from 7 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 6 pm. During rush hours, traffic is heavier on major roads leading to and from New York City.

Consider using alternative routes, including Old Country Road, Jericho Turnpike, and Hempstead Turnpike Route 24.
