Car rental reviews in Istanbul
Renault Clio 5 in Turkey
Everything went well. The car was handed over right at the airport, the car arrived on time. It was convenient that we paid in cash and without a deposit. The car was well equipped. We had to return it later than originally planned because the flight was postponed, the lease was extended without problems for an extra fee. It was always possible to get in touch with the contact person via WhatsApp. There were no problems with the return.
Hyundai i20 in Turkey

Dacia Jogger in Turkey
We liked everything. There were no problems at all. So we will probably come to you in the future.
Opel Combo Life in Turkey
After ordering Opel Combo and the first installment we were informed that there were problems with this car and offered Opel Zafira. I agreed, as there is such a model for 5 seats. At the airport we were brought to 9 seats, which I was just shocked. We were 2 with my wife. But I had to take her. Everything went well. Only we overpaid for everything - in parking lots, on the highway for the size of the car, for gasoline consumption.

Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey
Rented a Renault Megane for 4 days in Turkey in October 2023 through TakeCars.com The procedure of choosing and ordering a car is simple and clear. The manager was always on call in vatsap, ready to help and answer questions We gave a welcome discount of 3% on the first order by promo code The initial payment of 15% paid in rubles from the Russian card. The rest in cash currency upon receipt of the car. The car was fresh (July 2022gv) with low mileage. Technical inspection was passed the day before the lease, the marks in the passport were present. Spare tire and tools were available. The car on the road did not fail. The procedure of registration of the car took about an hour in the office of the rental company (taking into account the cleaning of the interior of the car). We were given tea and coffee, souvenirs. Impressions from ordering, renting and traveling are the best!
Ford Courier in Turkey
Everything went perfectly, the car is completely as we wanted in good condition. Delivery and acceptance of the car went very well and quickly! Price-quality - super! The only thing was inconvenient that the issuance manager spoke only Turkish, I had to work a little with the dictionary, and the rest was fine.
Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey
It didn't go well with my lease! They charged me a lot of extra money before I turned the car in. For the car wash was one. I drove on toll roads, then I was shown a receipt of payment, I agreed to it. Next, they said that most likely you were somewhere else, and that the system displays it after 3 days. and that because these charges are not yet in the system, you have to pay double the price. This is their way of insuring that they don't have new accruals coming to them in a couple of days. My arguments and timing that in the system find all the payment points that I crossed they did not take!
Hyundai Kona in Turkey
Everything went well. I was a bit worried as it was the first time I booked through your website. The car was new, in good condition, and I received it at the airport. And, most importantly, cheaper than other places.
Toyota Corolla Sedan in Turkey
1. Delayed the issuance of the car in Istanbul for 3 hours, which disrupted our plans on the first day of the trip. 2. The car was not the one I had booked, although I had made the reservation a month before the trip, instead of Toyota Corolla - Reno Megan. 3. the car arrived dirty (in the cabin), with an empty tank, with a burning tire pressure sensor. I barely made it to the nearest gas station, I thought I would stand in Istanbul traffic jams with an empty tank, pumped up the wheel at the gas station, but it continued to go down little by little. 4. There was no water in the washer tank and you can't fill it because the hood is blocked. Had to water the windshield from a bottle to wash off dust and smudges. 5. Delayed the return of the car for 2 hours, although I brought the car directly to the office in Antalya, but there was no one there. Already had to go to the airport, some how waited for these grief employees of the rental company. 6. The deposit was given in old dollar bills, although I paid with new ones. I do not recommend anyone to get in touch with this rental company, if you do not want to have a lot of problems.
