Customer questions about Crawley car hire
❝
I was planing my 2 weeks holidays in august therfore i have a question. I was thinking about renting a car and going to few eu countries for a road trip. Can I cross the border with a rented car?
Hi, this is usuall permitted within the EU but will incur an additional charge by the rental agent to cover extra insurances. You can view any restrictions / prices by clicking on the T&C's for any car once you've run a search and then navigating to 'Extra Services / Cross-Border and Bounday Rule where all the information you require is located as it will vary depending on which rental agent you select.

Crawley is a big town that has prospered since the opening of Gatwick Airport but prior to that it was a sleepy market town over a thousand years old. In fact the area’s been inhabited for millennia. The town itself is renowned as a commuter centre for
London and also for its shopping with one of the biggest shopping malls in the south east located there and there are plans to redevelop another.
Apart From Flying Into Gatwick, how Else can I get There?

Victoria Station in London that stops there. Travellers from the north or west would be advised to take a London connection to Victoria. It’s also a stop on the National Express route.
