Car rental reviews in Istanbul
Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey
Met at Bursa airport. We quickly drove the car to the airport building. The problem was with the English language. When returning, he postponed the return date by three days. They agreed without any problem. Returned the car at the new Istanbul Airport. Also not difficult at the 5th column. In general, I can recommend the company.
Fiat Fiorino in Turkey
On the plus side, they gave me a slightly higher class car, but it was a gasoline, not a diesel. On the downside, they didn't want to accept my debit card for a deposit, they argued for half an hour and tried to impose their own insurance. In the end they took a deposit of 200 euros in cash. If there was no cash deposit, they probably refused.

Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey
In general, everything was standard, except for one nuance, but very important for me. When I choose a car, I always look at the year of manufacture and try to take a fresh car, as a new car is always nicer to drive than an old one. And the cost of renting a new car is usually higher than used cars. So I rented a car of 2024 year of release, as it was stated on the website of the rental company, and received a car of 2019 year of release with a mileage of 165 thousand kilometers. The interior was heavily smoked and the driver's seat was burned with cigarettes. I spend a lot of time in the car as I travel around the area and so the condition of the car is important to me! Please do not deceive your customers or give correct information about the car! On the site takecars.com there were cars of the same class but older by year of manufacture and these offers were cheaper, and I chose your company because the year of manufacture of the car was specified 2024, and I received a car of completely different quality.
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!

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.

Renault Clio 5 in Turkey
Emir met us at the airport and took us to the office to sign the contract - it is 8-10 minutes from the airport. The whole procedure took another 10 minutes and we picked up the car. I took a Renault Clio - clean, fresh. It was just right for Istanbul! I rented the car at the same place where I signed the contract. It took no more than 10 minutes. Emir also took us from there to the airport. I am completely satisfied with the service, I recommend it!
