KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Oxford

  • As a visitor to Oxford, renting a car means that you don't have to restrict your sightseeing to the city center. Although there are several options for public transport around the city, they can be expensive and fail to give you the same freedom as a car. There are plenty of places to be discovered across the city and beyond with a car, like the University Museum of Natural History and Bicester Village.
  • Excited to rent a car on your visit to Oxford? If you are landing at London Oxford Airport you will find only one car hire company based on-site. You will find its car hire office located in Building 34, opposite the Terminal entrance, which is a few meters away. You can also arrange a pick-up from other local off-site car hire companies.
  • Travelers new to the UK should remember to drive on the left. When you enter a divided highway or motorway, you must keep to the left-hand lane unless you’re passing. Roundabouts are very common on UK roads, especially in and around Oxford. The traffic will flow in a clockwise direction around roundabouts, so you must give way to traffic approaching from your right.
  • The morning rush hour in Oxford begins around 7:00 am until 10:00 am and again in the evening from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm. On Sundays and bank holidays, traffic is much heavier on the roads. If possible, it’s best to avoid the M40 motorway, especially going towards London, on weekdays as it’s often congested at rush hour.
  • Small rental cars in Oxford are around 26% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about renting a car in Oxford

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Oxford?

    Renting a smaller car model means that you won’t have any problem navigating Oxford. The city center features mainly narrow streets and outside of the city are undulating country roads that lead to nearby villages, meaning you would need to rent a compact car for complete comfort.

  • What’s the speed limit in Oxford?

    The main speed limit for Oxford is 20 mph, especially in residential areas where there are a high volume of cyclists and pedestrians. In urban areas, a speed limit of 30 mph is enforced, while on single carriageways it’s 60 mph. On dual carriageways and motorways the speed limit is 70 mph. Elsewhere, the rest of the UK’s roads adhere to the national speed limit of 60 mph.

  • Where are the best places to park in Oxford?

    When it comes to parking in Oxford, you have many options. If you have the time, you can use the Park and Ride, which has many locations on the outskirts of Oxford.

When we got there they said the booking was not registered from Kayak so we had to luckily find a car available on the spot.

The car was dirty with bald tires. It didn’t feel safe. I was also charged many fees that were not disclosed when I initially booked this car with kayak. Very unsatisfied.
