Car rental reviews in Istanbul
Hyundai Accent Sport Sedan in Turkey
The car was technically defective. I will not write a bad review. The service was relatively ok. It was hard to get in touch with a representative. Next time I think I will rent from you, too, then we will see. Thank you
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
Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey
Everything went great, car is nice, new, in great condition. The terms and conditions are the best of all the offers. The staff is very friendly, the interaction is prompt.

Opel Grandland X in Turkey
Everything went fine.
Opel Mokka in Turkey
Thank you very much to Devrim for providing the car. The car was delivered to the hotel on time, inspection and clearance took 15 minutes, same for return. The Opel mokka was a 2025 with 4000km mileage. Toll roads were paid when returning the car.
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.
Ford Focus in Turkey
Everything went great. If I am in Istanbul again, I will do it again. We got a megane instead of a focus. But in general it was not a problem. The car is good.
Fiat Fiorino in Turkey
Everything went well, there were no problems. except that at first we thought that we would have to pay the full amount in rubles, but the lack of this option was not a problem.
