London And Beyond With Car Hire

Four world heritage sites?an unrivaled arts and theater scene?superb shopping?it?s easy to see why London is one of the most popular short break destinations in the UK. What?s more, with car hire your London travel experience becomes an adventure.

Things To See/Do in London:

A guided sightseeing tour is the best option to take if you?re looking to discover the city?s famous sites. This way you?re guaranteed to visit iconic attractions such as Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace and the London Eye at an all-inclusive price.

London?s West End is where some of world?s best theatre and musical entertainment is to be found. The theatres around Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus play host to world premieres and record-breaking show runs, while Covent Garden boasts London?s ?Avenue of Stars? walkway. Tickets to popular shows can be pricey however, so it?s definitely worth your while checking locally for last-minute discounts on ticket prices, special offers or reduced group rates.

London is regarded as an international fashion capital and justifiably so. Whatever your budget, you?ll find London offers an exciting shopping scene. The city?s Oxford Street, which stretches 2km, is the longest shopping street in the world, while Bond Street and Mayfair are favourites with uptown girls and boys. Thrifty trendies looking to pick up unusual vintage items head to London?s street markets. Second hand bargains, cheap curiosities and low cost labels are to be found on sale at discount prices at the famous Camden Market and Portobello Road.

Eating Out in London:

London is an ethnically diverse city, with a cuisine that reflects this. In London it?s possible to eat your way around the world. Whether you?re longing for cheap Bangladeshi eats in Brick Lane, craving crispy duck in China Town or hankering after fusion fare in Soho, you?re guaranteed to silence tummy rumblings in London-whatever your budget.

Day Trips/Events in London:

London is the venue for a range of national and local events throughout the calendar year including the summer Notting Hill Carnival in West London, the Trooping of the Colour in June and annual New Year?s Day Parade.

London and its outskirts is a hive of sporting activity. While in town, why not check out Premiership soccer sides Arsenal or Chelsea in action or watch elite tennis pros battling it out at the nearby Wimbledon Tennis Championships in June and July. London is proud to be hosting the Summer Olympic Games in 2012, making it London?s third occasion to host the event.

London is the ideal base from which to explore the surrounding countryside by hire car.

Ancient Stonehenge makes for an excellent drive. Situated about 145km from London city, the impressive 5000 year-old site is well worth the journey.

If you?re looking to soak up some sea and (hopefully) sunshine, then a drive to Brighton is a must. Situated 112km from London, the pretty seaside town of Brighton offers a distinctive pebble beach as well as attractive Victorian piers-ideal for leisurely walks.

The pretty city of Bath is accessible by hire car and within a 140km drive of London. The city offers fascinating historical and architectural attractions, well worth exploring on a day-trip.

The Beaches Of Puerto Vallarta
The beaches in and around Puerto Vallarta may be the most diverse in Mexico. Located at the midpoint of Banderas Bay, the area surrounding Puerto Vallarta boasts 34 miles of coastline, 26 of which are sandy beaches. Within the city, the beaches are elegant and pristine, bordered by restaurants and resorts. Beaches to the north of the city tend to be longer and wider, with great opportunities for surfing and swimming. South of Puerto Vallarta, the mountains topple into the sea in places, creating placid coves and intimate sandy pockets.
