Volkswagen Golf 5 in Albania

The car I rented is not the car I received. When you met your coworker to pick up the car, it was the wrong car. I waited with her for 1 hour until another car arrived to replace her. This new car wasn't that car either, but I didn't want to wait any longer for another car to arrive since I had already wasted time waiting. They gave me a VW Sharan car. The rear tires were very bald and the air intake filter kept falling off while driving. Your colleague with whom I dealt was informed of the problems. Luckily, the car didn't break down and my wife and I were able to continue our vacation.

Mercedes-Benz B-Class in Albania

Everything was good, no major problems but would highly suggest to put some pump, lug wrench and hydraulic jack in the car, just in case. We had low tyre pressure, everything was great at the end by just putting some extra air in it but, if something were not ok, wouldn’t be able to move anywhere

Volkswagen Polo in Albania

First of all, it was not a WW POLO, but a FORD FIESTA. Except for the fact that the car got locked with the keys four hours away from Tirana (I was in Xamil 😅 ), everything else went pretty well. I'm still waiting for the 100 euro deposit I put in when renting.

Audi A6 in Albania

Professional service, even though we had a delay of over an hour, Mr. Armand was waiting for us at the airport. The car was washed, it looked like in the pictures, on the last day of the rental, a message appeared in the car to add oil to the engine, Mr. Armand was under the car in 15 minutes and added engine oil so that we could still go to Durres. The car itself, Audi A6, is very comfortable and accelerates quite efficiently, it also has a reversing camera which helps with parking in the city. Great memories from renting a car, I visited all of Albania and Montenegro

Volkswagen Golf 5 in Albania

just to let you know we are very desapointed with the car. First of all we asked for a golf 5 and we had a Touran which is more bigger and not modern. We did not have diesel inside when we get it and had to fill full,this is not really helpfull. Climatisation do not work well and we cannot charge our phone and no GPS inside. You must precise it before we book car. Moreover, we have a lot of signal light as oil to contrôle, airbag failure..we are not safe at all with this car. We also left with half a tank of gas, even though we had started with a car that barely had any gas!

Dacia Sandero Stepway in Albania

Very satisfied, one minor issue on the car (no liquid to clean the glass so with the dust it was a bit annoying). Except that, nothing to complain, the guys at the agency were very nice too.
