London is the capital city of England and sits on the banks of the Thames. If you're visiting for shopping then take a trip to Oxford Street. The city has so much to offer, such as Madam Tussauds and the London Planetarium, which boasts one of the best displays in Europe. Car hire from London is a great idea if you're looking to travel out to the suburbs and don't want to rely on the public transport. The suburbs and boroughs hold countless treasures. Hiring a car from London could take you to the amazing Richmond Park, accessible from the city by the M3, or to the alternative haven of Greenwich, home of the Cutty Sark ship.
You can drive a long way out of London City and still be within its boundaries. Car hire from London can open up the East End, rich with cockney history, where you can visit the famous street market in Spitalfields. If you want to travel further afield, then the spa town of Bath is only 90 minutes away. Lovers of green spaces can rent a car from London and head west, where Richmond Park, Wimbledon Common and Bushy Park are all in close proximity to each other – all the parks offer walking, cycling and horse riding, and are like green oases in the urban environment.
