Hyundai i20 in Turkey
Everything went very well. Very convenient to rent a car, no delays. Comfortable price, no restrictions on mileage. The only difficulty was that the guys did not speak English, so we had to communicate via google translator from Russian to Turkish and back again.

1. They gave me a Kia sportage instead of an Audi 2. I had to pay 150 bucks more. 3. They didn't speak English at all 4. The car in general was ok, although the mileage is high. 5. They did not give me a normal printout of prices for the toll roads in Turkey, I probably overpaid.

Opel Astra Sedan in Turkey
Good afternoon. We rented a car from 03/05/2022 for 15 days. Due to the unstable situation in the world and the cancellation of flights from March 8, we had to interrupt the rental. We were promised that we would be able to continue renting a car on our next vacation. For 2 days of rent, everything went for us, as if in a dream, we did not have time to understand and feel what happened to us. A wonderful tour was planned throughout Turkey. The car was picked up and dropped off at the airport. Everything is clear, on time, without delay. See you soon
Opel Corsa in Turkey
Everything is perfect. The car was clean and well maintained, everything was in working order. Drop off was fast, but pickup was very long, in the heat, they don't understand English, and the documents were filled out. In general, everything except the first contact is excellent.
Opel Astra Sedan in Turkey
Everything was fine.
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.
