  • Land the best price on a Greenwich car hire by booking in advance. You're more likely to get the best value with the most choice.

  • Browse the offers available from top providers like Enterprise.

  • Check if a collision damage waiver (CDW) is part of your Greenwich car hire policy, whether you go with Enterprise or any other supplier. Some companies might not include it in the base price and instead sell it separately.

  • Consider booking a one-way rental. You might be able to lock in a good deal if the provider needs to shift cars between sites. Find the best available rates by selecting 'Return car to a different location.'

  • Search for a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy.' You'll pick up and drop off your car with a full tank, so you pay only for what you use. No surprise fuel add-ons when you hand back the keys either.

  • Level up your ride with extras like a navigation system or mobile Wi-Fi. These features can make your journey easier and more relaxed when you rent a car in Greenwich.

Good to know

  • You typically have to be at least 21 years old to rent a car in the United Kingdom. Being younger isn't always a deal-breaker — just expect some added charges or limits. Check the suppliers' terms and conditions before you book.

  • If the kids are coming with you, check if you need to add a car seat to your Greenwich car hire booking. Whether a legal requirement or not, they're always the safest way for youngsters to ride.

  • Come prepared to avoid delays at pick-up. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (not a screenshot or digital version) and a second photo ID. Also bring a credit card with enough available balance to cover the deposit. If anything extra is required, you'll find it in your booking.

  • Driving in the United Kingdom can seem unfamiliar if it's your first time. Don't forget all vehicles travel on the left side of the road.

  • Keep within local speed limits of about 40kph in built-up areas and around 100kph on highways. Road signs will indicate if the limit is different.

  • A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit of 0.08% applies in the United Kingdom. The most reliable way to be safe to drive is to avoid drinking completely.

  • Try to travel outside heavy traffic periods for a smoother trip. 5pm is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • You'll be using the British pound (GBP) on your trip here. In addition to your debit and credit cards, have some cash on hand for smaller purchases.

  • English is the language that most people speak in this country.
