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.

Peugeot 5008 in Turkey

Everything went well, the car was brought on time, they were normal about the change of airport and time of car delivery due to problems with departure from Russia The car itself was in good condition, clean, everything was fine, they accepted the car without any problems and gave us a ride to the hotel. One minor disadvantage 1) we had a fine and had to pay it after we left, which was inconvenient to do from Russia. It was very cool that the guys were always in touch and went to meet us.

Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey

First of all, I want to say a big thank you! The only service that we managed to find, with the possibility of paying with a Russian prepaid card and a cash deposit in the current situation in the world, thank you for keeping the opportunity for everyone to travel without barriers! Renting a car left mixed feelings. Starting with the late service representative in the rental car for an hour, but by a happy coincidence, our flight was also delayed by 40 minutes. Secondly, on the site we booked a car on diesel, arrived on gasoline. We were pleased that despite the complete lack of knowledge of the English language of the service representative, friends or colleagues of this representative spoke to us in Russian on the phone. The journey turned out to be truly magical thanks to the car. I managed to visit many places, enjoy the local driving style, so to speak, immerse myself completely in Turkish culture. Unlimited mileage has become the main parameter when choosing a service, and here it is included in car rental, you didn’t have to pay anything extra. The car itself is in good condition, it was a pleasure to drive. With pleasure we will use your services many, many more times when we are in Turkey, thank you!!! Thank you very much for the excellent service and development of tourism in your amazing country!

Hyundai Ix20 in Turkey

They gave me another Renault car, a dirty one. When I said I did not order this car so rudely responded if you want to take it do not want another client waiting for another customer sat down and drove away barely returned back from desperation. I will put a review everywhere I can so that no one will take a car from you.
