| Dover | Car rental in Dover Posted: Mon February 6, 2006 12:14 AM UTC
My wife and I are taking a cruise in and out of Dover in May. We are planning to rent a car for a post-cruise visit to see some friends in Leicester. Based on the addresses of the locations for the major car rental companies it appears that most are near each other (on Snargate Street), however, we cannot seem to find out how close each is to the actual port. Does anyone know if we can walk to the car rental location with our luggage?
BTW, we looked into train travel and hiring a private car, but have decided that renting our own car is the way for us. |

Hopefully I am not too late. Snargate Street is in walking distance but it may be better to take a taxi if you have a lot of luggage. You should be able to drive to Leicester in 3-3.5 hours comfortably. Try not to travel before 10 in the morning or between 4 and 7 in the evening and you should have no problems.
Forget the coaches, they also travel on the roads and for added delay they go into central LOndon (average speed 1.8 mph). Please let me know if I can be of any more help.
