Best cities to visit in Essex

Colchester: This town is the oldest in all of England and used to be the capital of Britain under Roman rule. Visit the 11th-century castle and the gardens in Castle Park. There’s also a museum containing finds from the city’s Roman excavation sites.

Southend-on-Sea: This town is super popular for day trips by tourists and locals alike. Enjoy a day on the beach and walk along the world’s longest pier—more than a mile long. The Adventure Island park is right next to the pier.

Saffron Walden: This medieval market town is just a short distance from Cambridge. The market operates on Tuesdays and Saturdays and has been in operation since the 12th century. Stroll down Myddylton Place and Castle Street to admire quaint and colorful old buildings.

We had the best experience with Sixt we arrived at car rental Village Stansted Airport from Belfast with my husband and 2 young children we had a booking for another rental company in this place il mention no names and when we got there we had a bit of bother they were so unhelpful and didn't seem to want to help so i cancelled my rental car with them with their words being Sixt is way dearer than us we walked over to Sixt and had a completely different experience the fella we met working at the desk was called Ian he was the most pleasant worker and helped with everything we needed it was abit dearer but we didn't care as the custom was top notch and we drove out of there in a beautiful car and a beautiful drive it was. Thank you to Sixt I would definitely recommend and I will definitely be back

I hired for a fortnight. I dealt with both Mark and Matt. Absolutely fantastic it was. The car was great. The guys were professional, polite, helpful. We had a good chat and laugh and made me feel at ease with the whole process. And it just so happened that they were both there on my drop off day too. Both are an asset to the team. I would 100% recommend your company to everyone I know. Thanks guys
