Long Island car hire will make your life much easier when visiting this coastal neighbourhood of Queens. Car is the easiest way to navigate the area, as there’s only one train station per town and many beaches cannot be reached by public transportation. With some of the best coastline in America, including the famous Hamptons, it’s a holiday paradise for many tourists that enjoy the finer things in life. Apart from glorious beaches, Long Island also offers world-class wineries, excellent dining, museums, galleries and more. At about 120 miles in length, the entire island can be driven in under 3 hours from Nassau County to Montauk.

Long Island is a hot tourist spot, which means that drivers come from all over the world to grace its roads. While winding coastlines and wealthy suburbs may lead to scenic drives, typical New York drivers commuting from Long Island tend to be more aggressive, leading to the inevitable road rage that the major motorways cause. Stay calm, and driving should be a pleasure. Interstate 495 will require you to pay a toll to get into Queens and if you are visiting in winter, please be aware of snow and black ice on the roads.

When hiring an economy vehicle in the US, you can be as young as 18 years old. There is a young driver’s fee of roughly $24 (£19) per day if under 21 years of age. You’ll need to present your driving licence when collecting the vehicle. As a UK driver, you should be able to present your home licence, but some car hire agencies may ask for an International Driver’s Permit as extra assurance.
