Fiat Egea in Turkey

Renault Taliant in Turkey
everything was good: the only thing was that I had to move the time of picking up the car by 2 hours, but they changed the car for me to another one (a little higher class). Surrender was also comfortable. The only disadvantage was that no one at the rental office spoke English, but we figured it out on our fingers).
Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey
It was amazing experience, but the charges for a whole extra day and also I had put in more fuel for which I did not get reimbursed
Opel Grandland X in Turkey
The car was replaced after booking, given a Hyundai Bayon. Although the car was not old in terms of mileage, but it felt very different. The amount of the contract included a second driver, but it was not included in the contract. Good that this issue was resolved with the rental office remotely
Nissan Qashqai in Turkey
Everything it was great expect that the person who delivered me the car and who came back to take it from me did not know English and I couldn’t communicate with him. I needed to speak with someone other from the office.
Dacia Sandero Stepway in Turkey
Everything went very well and quickly. The car was in perfect condition. We received the car on time. I would like to use your services again next year.
Renault Clio 5 in Turkey
I ended up renting a Hyundai I20. In general, there were no significant differences from the car I had originally rented. Everything went very well, we were met at the airport and taken to the company's office, very quickly formalized. The car is new, there are no claims, at the inspection immediately fixed a little damage. We had a great trip on it the whole vacation. The manager was in touch, the only disadvantage was that he did not immediately send confirmation of booking and payment. When handing the car back - everything went quickly and without complaints. The deposit was returned in full. I recommend for cooperation 👍
