KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Liverpool
- Once you’ve toured the city of Liverpool, you’ll want to explore the nearby countryside. With a rental car, you can enjoy a relaxing drive along the coast. Stop and walk along the Southport Pier or dip your feet in the sand at one of the nearby beaches. You’ll also be a short drive from North Wales and the historic Conwy and Harlech Castles.
- Liverpool John Lennon Airport is especially busy during the summer months. It offers lots of traveling conveniences including restaurants, shops, and car rental services.

- In Liverpool, as in all of the United Kingdom, you’ll drive on the left side of the street. As you drive throughout the city, note that there are many mobile speed cameras in various locations.

Sep 2018
Pros:
The car was brand new and ran well, getting fantastic gas mileage without being underpowered. Pickup at Liverpool Airport was extremely friendly, no upsell. I like the "fuel option," where they sell you a tank of gas but agree to cancel the sale if you bring it back full. In my case, with a very tight connection at my dropoff, I was grateful to be able to come in empty.Cons:
Car's handbrake was not adjusted right, so that it would not hold on very steep grades.8.0 Very good
