How to rent a car in Britain go on road trip introduction.

When you go to go on road trip, England, there may be many things you should pay attention to. Now Bian Xiao will tell you what you need to pay attention to, and the strategy of renting a car and driving. Let's go and have a look now.

The route query uses Google Maps, and you can climb the wall using the uc browser red apricot plug-in. One thing to emphasize: Every scenic spot should see official website. Google will do.

Hotel booking websites: booking\agoda\ Ctrip \airbnbbooking and Ctrip display the price including tax; Agoda shows that the price does not include tax, and only shows the total price when entering the reservation. In fact, the price is basically the same as the first two. However, the quotations of the three websites are still slightly different. It is suggested to compare the prices of the three websites after choosing a good hotel. Airbnb is a homestay, and local people rent their apartments daily, which is a good choice to replace hotels. Parents can cook by themselves. British hotel check

Time is after 15: 00 pm. Usually you can't check in before 15: 00. 12: 00- 15: 00 is the time to clean up the room for the hotel.

Driving Guide Navigation: Google Maps (alternate: maps.me). It is recommended to download the map to your mobile phone in advance. In Britain, it is not good to wait for the signal. When you can't even use Google on the Internet, it's up to you to download the maps.

Car rental websites: Ctrip, poor travel, websites of major car dealers. Most websites have free Chinese GPS when renting a car 10 days in advance, but I can't get it too late.

Car rental fee+fuel fee: car rental 12*40 1/ day. Rent a car 550.26 deposit 250. I forgot to calculate the fuel cost, each time it is about 10, and the fuel cost is about 10, so the total cost is about 1500 yuan.

Vehicles: Most small vehicles in Britain are diesel vehicles. The dial marks miles and subscripts kilometers.

Precautions for driving in Britain: There is not much difference between driving in Britain and driving in China. Just do the following two things:

1,

Left lane, right overtaking lane. If you think the car in front of you is slow, go to the right lane to overtake, overtake the car you want to overtake, and immediately return to the lane. Do not occupy the overtaking lane for a long time. Don't forget to signal left and right.

2,

The only difference between English road and domestic road is that there are many turntables. When watching navigation, be sure to count which exit you are at. Otherwise, it's really confusing. I have always considered myself a person with a good sense of direction. Driving in China doesn't count as which exit to take, just look at which direction it is from a distance. I think Britain is equally feasible. As a result, my arrogance made me go the wrong way several times before I honestly figured out which exit to take. English people are very polite when driving. If you want to overtake, the right turn signal will be issued, and the vehicle in front will not accelerate, or even slow down slightly to let you overtake smoothly, while the vehicle in the right overtaking lane will let you go first and will not compete with you. When you overtake the vehicle in front and return to the lane, the vehicle behind will continue to overtake you. Whether you are going the wrong way or not, as long as you give the signal, the traffic will basically politely let you change lanes first. The British drive very fast. Our speed of 120 km/h has been basically surpassed, but my parents won't let me drive too fast, that's all.

Other things to pay attention to: in Britain, roads are often built, and the two-way lane will become 1 lane. At this time, temporary traffic lights will be set at both ends of the maintenance section, just press the lights. When driving in Britain, there is no problem as long as you pay attention to the word "comity".

Refueling: Be optimistic about adding diesel gasoline (usually diesel) to the vehicle, and remove the correct oil gun from the tanker and put it on the vehicle for refueling. The action is the same as in China. Fill it up, go inside the counter and tell the cashier which tanker you are and how much the cashier will tell you. You just have to pay. Return the car: the deposit will be released after 4 weeks of returning the car and ensuring that you have no traffic violations.

Parking place:

1. Urban public parking lot. You can search on Google, such as Oxford.

Parking. You will find out where there are parking lots, which belong to different enterprises and institutions. official website will have detailed parking time charging standards and other information. What is the basic 1 hour, what is the 2-x hour, what is the overnight stay, or how long the parking time cannot exceed. A few pounds an hour.

2.

Hotel parking lot. Basically, no hotel has its own parking lot. It is the cooperation between the hotel and other parking lots, and there will be parking discounts when staying in the hotel. When I booked a hotel, I paid great attention to the parking lot. All the reservations say there is a parking lot. As a result, almost all hotels cooperated with other parking lots during the whole trip, and it was not very close to the hotel. 3.

Roadside parking area The long-distance highway is a non-expressway section, and there are often parking areas (the area where a car belt extends to the roadside) on both sides of the road, with signs P (some without signs). There must be a reminder of the distance to the parking area when driving, such as100,50. As long as you pay attention to the road signs, you won't miss the parking area because you drive too fast.

How to pay for parking: small open-air parking lot: after entering, park the car first. Select the length of stay before going to the automatic payment machine, such as 1 hour or 4 hours, and then put it in the machine to display the amount. The self-service printer will print out a card showing your entry time and stay time. Just put this card under the windshield of the car. In this way, managers can judge whether your parking is illegal or overtime according to this card. Self-service payment opportunities post charging standards, how long and how much. Please put away the cards and don't fall into the cracks of the glass car like me. You have to buy them again for nothing. -_-! ! Large indoor parking lot: give a coin when you go in. When you want to leave, you can pay the bill by swiping the money in front of the payment machine or the administrator. After paying the fee, when you leave the arena, put the money into the machine and open the railing.

The scenic spots are selected from the strategies of well-known domestic travel websites: for example, our dear poor travel. Tripadvisor is also highly recommended to see the ranking of scenic spots. tripadvisor

Chinese name: Toudaowang. Simply put, it is the public comment of travelers all over the world. Tripadvisor is very popular in Britain, and some hotels and restaurants will put the logo of tripadvisor on their doors. What are the scenic spots in a city? You can refer to your comments on tripadvisor.

Opening hours of scenic spots: I suggest you check the opening hours of various scenic spots on official website before you go. The opening hours of each scenic spot will be slightly different every month. Sometimes the castle will rent out some private activities, so it will not be open to the public, but it will be informed in advance on the official website, so it is strongly recommended to go to official website to check the opening hours before going to play. Because the opening hours of various scenic spots will change according to the month and so on, because the time written in this travel book is for reference only! Official website will also look for other information, including maps of scenic spots.

Ticket price of scenic spots: official website wrote it clearly. Museums are generally free. Attractions usually have some joint tickets with many other attractions, which can be unlimited in one year or in a lifetime. There are detailed descriptions in official website of various scenic spots, and you can choose to buy them according to your personal situation. Official website must see every scenic spot. Breakfast: lunch suggestion in the hotel: it is recommended to refer to the hotel recommendation of Volkswagen on tripadvisor.

Tax refund document: Tell the cashier about the tax refund when you buy something, and they will give you a list, and they will sign it and fill in the product information. What the cashier needs to do is finished. What you need is to fill in the form afterwards. You can choose cash tax refund or card refund, and select and fill in the card number information on the tax refund form. Tax refund location: enter Heathrow airport lobby, in the far left corner. -_-! !

Just give all the forms to the staff, and they will help you check whether the information is complete.
