KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Saint Helier

  • When you get a car hire in Saint Helier you will get more flexibility than if you used another form of transport, such as a bus, train or taxi. This is because a car hire offers you the freedom to come and go as you please, rather than relying on train and bus timetables or waiting for a taxi to arrive. For instance, if you wanted to go to Le Saut Falluet in your car you could do so in about 13min. The alternative would be to take a bus, which would take around 40min, and you’d also have to abide by the schedule.
  • Jersey Airport (JER) has a range of car hire companies for you to pick from, such as Hertz, Avis and Budget, so it won’t take you long to find your perfect car. The car hire companies are easy to locate upon arrival too. For instance, Hertz and Avis are located in close proximity of the small terminal once you’ve collected your bags and gone into the Arrivals hall.
  • When you get a car hire in Saint Helier you will see that the city is very busy with tourists. The city centre can get especially busy in the summer months. So you need to take extra care when driving as people often cross the roads in parts of the city which are designate pedestrian crossings. There are also a lot of cyclists in Jersey, with Saint Helier being no exception. For this reason it’s very important to check your mirrors regularly, especially when turning.
  • When you get your Saint Helier car hire you will find that the centre of the city can be very busy to drive in. The busiest times on the roads tend to be from 6 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., which are when rush hour is. If you don’t like driving at busy times then you should try and avoid the roads during these hours. One of the busiest roads in the city is La Route du Fort, which goes through the heart of Saint Helier. So, if possible, it’s always good to try and find an alternative route rather than drive on this road.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Saint Helier?

    Saint Helier is a historic city that attracts lots of tourists to its museums and beach each year. The roads can also be quite narrow at times.  Due to the fact that the town can get busy, it’s recommended that you get a small car, like a Toyota Aygo, which will make navigating the roads and parking that bit easier. If you want to explore the rest of the island then an SUV, like a Suzuki Jimny, is a good option as it has enhanced handling and is better on steep terrain.

  • What’s the speed limit in Saint Helier?

    You must stay within the speed limits when driving your car hire in Saint Helier and Jersey, or you will be at risk of prosecution from local authorities. For instance the top speed limit on the island is 40 mph (64 km/h). This can be done only on rural roads. In towns and built-up areas the maximum speed is 30 mph (48 km/h). When you’re next to schools and other built-up areas the maximum speed is 20 mph (32 km/h). There are a range of manual speed detection measures used across the island, so you could be caught speeding almost anywhere.

  • Where are the best places to park in Saint Helier?

    There are lots of parking spaces in Saint Helier, so you shouldn’t find it hard to park your car hire. In seasonal car parks between April and October it is free for the first 20min, but then it costs £8 (761₹) for up to 4 hours, £10 (952₹) for up to 5 hours, and £14.50 (1380₹) for up to 6 hours. The maximum is £17 (1618₹). Out of season these car parks are free to use.

Not having driven a Toyota before there were a couple of little things which caused me problems and where an instruction handout might of helped. These were: how to start the car (you have to depress the clutch) and where is the thing to open the petrol filler cap is (on floor by driver's seat).
