Car rental reviews in Istanbul
Opel Crossland in Turkey
All in all, everything was fine, the only thing was that, I don't know if it should be like this or not, the documents on the car were a photocopy of the STS. The local traffic police stopped the car and said it was illegal and demanded a fine. They sort of got out of it, but it was not pleasant. The company itself who rented out the car said that everything is fine, the main thing is not to get caught. Very strange. And in general, filing clearly on time, reception clearly on time without problems. the car is new good without problems. There are no claims to you)
Peugeot 508 in Turkey
We rented a car for 4 days, everything is perfect, delivery and handover at the airport as agreed. Everything promptly, conveniently, I recommend!
Fiat Egea in Turkey
everything went well! The only thing that was not according to the plan - took a deposit upon receipt, but returned without problems.
Ford Focus in Turkey
Well, in general, the car was not the one that was booked, they gave Hyundai accent instead of Ford focus, for some reason it seems to me that it is of a lower class than the focus, if I knew that they would replace it, I would not have booked it, but because I had to leave already , I had to take an accent, but everything is fine! The tires were from different manufacturers and with different patterns on the same axle at the back, not entirely critical of course, we drove normally, but still, this is not up to standard
Nissan Qashqai in Turkey
Instead of a Nissan they gave me an old henday solaris. My review is the worst! The car did not match the ordered
Opel Corsa in Turkey
I rented a car in Istanbul, the rental price was cheaper than other sites. Everything went well, the car was new with only 2600km of mileage! I recommend!
Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey
Everything went great, car is nice, new, in great condition. The terms and conditions are the best of all the offers. The staff is very friendly, the interaction is prompt.
Opel Mokka in Turkey
Everything went great. The car was brought to my hotel at the agreed time and was picked up at the airport in time when I handed the car in. The car was in perfect condition, low mileage, clean inside and out.
Opel Corsa in Turkey
had another car, a Hyundai. In general, everything was fine. But the man who met us did not have change and I had to look several times to change or change money. In the end I had to go back to the airport and stand in line for inspection. At the same time, I had the amount and without change minus a thousand rubles, we offered to pay it later, he did not agree. It took probably an hour to find it.
Audi A4 in Turkey
everything went fine, except they gave me a different car. A Peugeot instead of an Audi, a dubious substitution
Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey
The car I got was really good, no problem for the whole journey and the vendor whom I rented the car from was very helpful as well.
Hyundai Accent Sport Sedan in Turkey
I rented, but they gave me an Opel crossland with a surcharge, because I didn't have a Hyundai. In general, I think they were very surprised when I came to their office, and it took them a long time to figure it out. In general, everything went well, except for the communication. People there know only Turkish. They gave me a new car.
Opel Corsa in Turkey
Everything went perfectly. We were met at the airport quickly, the documents were processed quickly, on the day of the car delivery we are especially grateful for the detailed instructions on how to get to the place of car return at the airport - so thank you very much, when we are in Turkey again we will definitely use your services! And of course we will recommend you to everyone as we have many friends and acquaintances who are planning trips to Turkey.
