Audi A3 in Albania

The experience was not good at all. They gave us an old car, without headlights and full of damage. We took photos of the car but it was difficult because the sun did not allow for clear photos. We do not complain so as not to waste time on our vacation. The worst thing was when we handed it over that they wanted to make us guilty of one of the attacks that we had not committed. Furthermore, a group of 4 boys and 1 girl wanted to force us to pay €350 and they would not return our suitcases (they were inside the car). Finally we were able to enlarge one of the videos we had recorded and we were able to verify that that blow was already there when they gave us the car. The situation was very unpleasant.

Volkswagen Caddy in Albania

We really enjoyed it, the guy's pick up at the airport was great and the car was reliable. There were 7 of us but we also organized our luggage in the overhead compartment they provided for us. I would also recommend for the price. Everything was perfect

Ford Fiesta in Albania

We had a good experience. The communication went very well via whatsapp. Fast response time even in the evening. They have a great drop-off and pick-up service. We used different locations. Everything was possible, even if it was a three hour drive form there office. Unfortunately our car broke down after a week. The customer service responded quickly and immediately sent a new car while we went for lunch. Thing like this can happen. More important is how it is solved. They solved it nicely. In short, I recommend this company because of the good service, car and decent prices.
