What to do in London

There are many museums to see, and 23 have free admission including the Tate Modern, National Gallery and Museum of London. The street food markets in London offer a vibrant and varied introduction to London’s food scene.

If you want to escape from the bustle of London is the tranquillity of Richmond Park, which was once part of royal hunting grounds.

Ibrahim, you’re amazing! Thanks so much for making my trip to Manchester such a great experience! The BMW was incredible! Excellent work and 5-star customer service!

The stars are based on the service and staff at Sixt Battersea as they are always helpful and friendly, especially the guys at the counter who make the process smooth and quick. I never have to wait long to be seen, which is a real plus when you’re busy. They’re knowledgeable and always willing to assist with any questions or issues that come up. In terms of the company offering: the quality of the vans could be improved, as I have had a van with air con that didn't blow cold near the end of summer. I would like to see a small van size at target good price too. Finally the £200 deposit policy is a bit inconvenient. I few years ago I was renting a lot through another company, but don't remember having to wait for money back after a rental . Removing the deposit and keep hold of cards details instead would improve my cash flow and stop me using zipcar where despite being more expensive doesn't require the upfront costs.
