KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in High Wycombe
- Having a valid driver's licence recognised across the UK is one of the conditions for acquiring cheap car hire in High Wycombe. If you visit from outside the city, you will require an English-language driver's licence from your home country. However, you will need an International Driving Permit (IDP) if your driving licence is not in English. If you wish to hire cheap cars in High Wycombe, you must be at least 25 years old. However, certain hire services may have a 19-year-old minimum age limit, where people under 25 but over 19 can get a High Wycombe hire car at a surcharge.
- High Wycombe is a town with plenty to see and do whenever you visit the area. Opting for cheap car hire in High Wycombe is a much more convenient option for those who wish to visit the different attractions in and around the town. Among the places you can visit in your High Wycombe hire car is the Hellfire caves, located roughly 2.4 miles from the city centre, and it would take you approximately 5min to complete the journey. A hire car will not only reduce the travel time between destinations but also provide much more comfortable travel for its users.
- You may add a variety of extras to your High Wycombe hire car depending on the hiring agency you pick and the vehicle you book. Most High Wycombe car hire companies offer several standard features, such as GPS navigation. With a GPS navigation system, you may move about High Wycombe easily. Additionally, if you're travelling to High Wycombe in the winter, consider upgrading your hire car with snow chains or winter tyres to increase safety on slippery or snowy roads. If you need to transport extra luggage, you may also put a rack on the roof of your vehicle.
- When you’re in Buckinghamshire, it’s a good idea to pre-book car hire in High Wycombe so that you will be able to plan your own itinerary and have the flexibility to visit any of the tourist attractions whenever you wish, stopping off whenever you like en route. This is a designated UK Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, so waste no time in driving out to Chiltern Hills just outside the town. Here you’ll also find Hughenden Manor, erstwhile home of Benjamin Disraeli, and West Wycombe, where you can play a round at the Wycombe Heights Golf Centre.
- High Wycombe lies to the north-west of London, so your closest airport is Heathrow. As the UK’s busiest airports, you won’t have any problem finding all the car hire services you need. To reach them, make your way to any of Terminals 2 to 5. You can finalise arrangements there and then take a free shuttle to get to your car. If you’re coming from Terminal 2 or 3, follow the directions to the central bus station. From Terminal 4 or 5 head to the main arrivals exit and you’ll see a shuttle service point right outside each. Once you’re ready to go with your car hire in High Wycombe, you can get acquainted with the vehicle on the 17-mile drive from Heathrow to the town itself.
- Given High Wycombe’s proximity to London, it serves as a commuter town, which means that there is a lot of incoming and outgoing traffic on the main roads like the M25. There are also several business parks here, giving it the typical profile of a commercial town – in other words, the centre of town can get busy. So explore this area during quieter times of the day, like late morning or early afternoon. When the town centre gets busy, use that time to visit the attractions further afield, but take the back roads to avoid the main commuter arterials.
- Rush hours in High Wycombe begin to build from around 07:00 as commuters make their way to the capital city or head for the commercial centre of High Wycombe itself. The congestion is at its peak at around 08:00. The pattern repeats from approximately 16:00 to 17:00 in the afternoons. Avoid getting entangled in traffic at the crossroads of Cressex Link Road and Cressex Road, and the north end of Desborough Avenue where it intersects with Lancaster Road and again where it meets Marlow Road.
