Opel Corsa in Albania

There were no problems at first, but when we moved to another city, the problems started. We got a car that we had an accident on because the tire on the car was 15 years old and burst during a trip to Saranda. The tires were installed incorrectly because the tires were installed in pairs and they were not. Each tire was different. There was no emergency stop sign when the tire was replaced, which is a basic feature of the car. We had to pay 200 e for having old tires, no triangle and the resulting accident, and it was impossible to appeal despite police intervention. We would have been happy if it wasn't for the fact that we paid money for insurance that didn't really work. Contact with you or the landlord was good, but the experience with the rental company itself was not good.

Volkswagen Golf 8 in Albania

we rented this car and we were very happy with it. Everything went perfectly. We were met at the airport and the car was already waiting for parking. A big plus for us was that we could pay by card. The guy Amarildo is very courteous and funny. He speaks good English, explained everything, advised us where to go and was always in touch. The car itself is my new love! 😄 Now I want one for myself. We were satisfied with the trip and will gladly recommend your site to friends. Thank you!
