With thousands of people expected in Britain this summer for the Olympics, people are being encouraged to get their car hire deals sorted early to avoid disappointment. The sporting showpiece is likely to bring the UK to a standstill, coinciding with the school holidays when more people than usual are already hitting the motorways for “staycations” in the British Isles.
The majority of the events will be taking place in and around London, particularly the East End where the Olympic Stadium is located, but some events are being taken around the country – taking the football as an example, it is being played in Newcastle, Manchester, Coventry and Cardiff as well as Wembley Stadium in London, and visitors are already starting to snap up cheap car hire packages to ensure that they can travel to their events.
So, with sports fans flooding the country’s transport links, as well as families trying to get off to the seaside to, ironically, escape the Olympics, being stuck in your normal family car, which you’re beginning to outgrow, isn’t ideal. Having the chance to hire something a bit bigger or more comfortable is something that could make the journey to the destination much more bearable, but you’ll have to move fast.
With all kinds of vehicles available at our locations across the Midlands, Rent Direct offer our customers fantastic deals on car hire packages, providing everything from small economical runarounds, perfect for driving into London for the Olympics, to large family cars for getting as far from them as possible, with prices starting from as little as £25 per day.
The only problem with these offers is that they’re being snapped up by people from around the world, so if you’re planning on a trip to or around the time of the Olympics, take a look around out site and find our nearest location and the vehicles on offer. Should you have any questions, please contact your local branch where the staff will be happy to help you find the perfect vehicle for your requirements.
