When it comes to getting away from home for a holiday, you need to think carefully about the travel. Will you road trip, or are you going to take public transportation on your UK break? Which you choose will depend on your unique circumstances, but we’re going to show you why we prefer to drive.
There are so many road trip benefits over public transport. Check out our top 3.
Greater flexibility
One of the greatest benefits to road trips is the flexibility. You aren’t on any schedule other than the one you set yourself. If you see something on your journey that you think looks fun, you can pull over and experience it. Follow the brown signs for an adventure you might otherwise never have known existed!
Our car hire services are fully customised to you. When you book a hire vehicle with us, we fit to your needs. Plus, if you choose to extend your trip while you’re away, just let us know and we’ll make sure you remain insured!
You can pack more
If you’re travelling by car, you have much more luggage space than you would have on public transport. You can pack all your belongings neatly into the boot and forget about them. With public transport, you’re limited to what you can carry and we all know there’s very limited storage space on busses and trains. Save yourself the stress and use the car!
We’ve got lots of tips for maximising your boot space too. Check them out here.
Social media break
When you’re travelling along the open road, you’re not glued to your phone. This gives you a much needed social media break. If you’re sat on a bus or train, even if you brought a book or game for the journey, the temptation to look at your phone is still very strong!
Mobile phone laws are there to keep all road users safe. So, while you’re driving, you’re not scrolling and are instead taking notice of the world around you. Get the whole car playing travel games and enjoying each other’s company. You can tweet about it later!
