Car rental reviews in Istanbul
Fiat Egea in Turkey
everything went well! The only thing that was not according to the plan - took a deposit upon receipt, but returned without problems.
Opel Corsa in Turkey
We didn't have an Opel, we were given a Renault. Everything went well, the car did not let me down, there were no problems with the reception and delivery of the car. In the future I will definitely contact again. Thank you!

Hyundai i20 in Turkey
I liked it all
Fiat Egea in Turkey
Everything went well, I was met at the airport, taken to the office where all the documents were drawn up. The car was the same as we had booked, in good condition. There were two things that we did not like very much. First: the car had no fuel at all, we had to look for a gas station. The second: when we handed over the car we were charged 300 lira for travel on toll roads, but the bill for them did not show. According to our data, we had to pay 150 liras for the toll roads. For us these are insignificant trifles. If we need a car in Turkey - we will turn to you, rating 5-
Hyundai Bayon in Turkey
Everything went just fine. Excellent service. - Convenient drop off (I got the car near the airport) - very convenient drop-off (the car was picked up just at the arrival line). If you can keep it, it's a competitive advantage: not only to hand over, but also to hand over cars - very convenient. Good luck and development of your service!
Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey
Everything went great!!! The car met at the airport at 3am. The car is excellent. Traveled around Turkey. Toll roads paid for when we rented the car in cash. In general, this is the first experience of renting a car and everything went just great! I have already recommended your company to my friends who are planning to fly to Istanbul. Thank you!!!
Fiat Egea in Turkey
All was good
Nissan Qashqai in Turkey
1) transparent pricing on the website 2) convenient prepayment by ruble card / cash on the spot. No international bank cards were required 3) we were given a different car - instead of Kashkay - Opel Grandland (new, 2025). Even a light class upgrade 4) everything is fine with the car, we had a great ride. 5) final payment without any surprises at all - the Turks sent me a screenshot from local state services with my fines (it amounted to 700 liras - pennies). I gave it to them and everything was fine. A slight disadvantage - the Turks who brought / took the car (different people) did not speak English, not a word at all, not even numerals. In Russian, of course, too. But they explained themselves.
Peugeot 508 in Turkey
We rented a car for 4 days, everything is perfect, delivery and handover at the airport as agreed. Everything promptly, conveniently, I recommend!
Dacia Sandero Stepway in Turkey
Thank you, it went well. Just ended up with a Dacia Jogger, which was even better as it is a more spacious vehicle.
