Car rental reviews in Istanbul
Nissan Qashqai in Turkey
Everything was on time and according to the terms agreed upon.
Fiat Fiorino in Turkey
Of the good: - expectations of the car matched the offer; - prompt response to messages on watsapp upon arrival at the airport; - quick transfer from the airport to the pickup site; - attentive and polite staff; - possibility to leave a deposit in cash. From the unpleasant: - Long wait (over half an hour) for the trasfer from the car return site to the airport (didn't expect to spend that much time on it). From personal inflated expectations: - The employees of the pickup point incorrectly oriented in the fuel consumption, as a result there were 10 liters in the tank (it would be great if the extra fuel would be compensated by a reduction in the toll road payment).

Everything went perfectly, very satisfied
Opel Crossland in Turkey
good at first. The car is in good condition. But when I returned the car they demanded 2100 liras from me without justification, allegedly for tolls. There are big doubts about the validity of this amount. They didn't even give me change. I was planning to use your services in a month for my next trip to Istanbul, but unfortunately I ordered a car elsewhere.
Fiat Egea in Turkey
Everything went well, I liked the car.
Citroen C3 in Turkey
Everything was great in terms of organization. The car was worth the money
Opel Corsa in Turkey
I rented a car in Istanbul, the rental price was cheaper than other sites. Everything went well, the car was new with only 2600km of mileage! I recommend!
Opel Astra Sedan in Turkey
Everything is fine. I use the second time. Easy choice of car, support works quickly, helped with the choice of car and with payment. The car corresponds to the description, did not disappoint anywhere. All agreed, drove the car to the airport, met with a sign, clearance on the spot for 5 minutes and drove off. Similarly, the delivery of a car, near the entrance to the airport, gave the keys, shook hands and flew
