KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Gravesend

  • The benefits of booking a car hire in Gravesend are that you can explore the city at your own place and go wherever you want without having to rely on public transport schedules that might include complicated changes or stops on the way. You also don't have to worry about the hassle of lugging your bags from one vehicle to another along the way. Reach places such as Shorne Woods Country Park in your car in just around 8min, rather than having to catch a bus and then a taxi which can take at least 30min.
  • The closest airport to Gravesend is London City Airport (LCY) which is a 45min drive from the airport to the city centre. Start your adventure directly at the airport by booking a Gravesend car hire directly from the airport. You'll find there are several international and local car hire companies located in the main arrives terminal of the airport. The process takes only 5min to collect your car and head out if you pre-book your Gravesend car hire in advance.
  • Gravesend has an excellent road network so getting from one place to another is safe and easy. You'll drive along country lanes, through city landscapes and on accessible motorways. There are lots of places to stop along the side of the roads to take pictures of the charming rolling hills in the countryside; just be careful to allow for safe following distances on country roads in case the car in front of you wants to pull over for a picture suddenly.
  • When driving your Gravesend car hire, take note of weather that might make driving tricky at times. You'll often be driving in wet or misty weather, so it is best to check the tyres,  windscreen wippers and fog lights are in a top working order before leaving the car hire area. Remember, its best to slow down to a safe speed of no more than 30mph when driving in fog, and put your hazard lights on so that your car is visible to other drivers.
