Noisy sink emptying

Both the kitchen and bathroom sinks have a loud gurgling when emptying. No sound at first but loud at the end of emptying. Neither seem to have vents on the traps, is that the cause?
Any fix?
Thanks
 
How long is the run till the waste hits the soil pipe? Gurgling is usually down to self syphoning, where the run is overly long and the slug of water in the waste is then pulling on the trap. Get an anti vac trap and that'll stop it.
