Car rental reviews in Istanbul
Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey
Everything is OK, but I lost sight of the child seat and did not return for it, but on the site the price is with the chair and I paid the full amount
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!
Citroen Berlingo in Turkey
2 hours before the appointed time, I contacted a representative of the company and it turned out that the previous tenant did not return the booked car. At first they offered me a Citroen c4, but because I had 4 suitcases and 3 people, I refused. As a result, they provided Opel (pictured). The car is excellent, still in the film (the mileage was about 300 km), in an excellent configuration. They didn't charge me for a replacement. Rated 10 out of 5 😊
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.
Opel Vivaro in Turkey
Let's start with the fact that I didn't get an Opel Vivaro, there was another minivan, without panorama, without electric door drives. I did not bother to find out where exactly the ordered car was, but accepted what was brought. We were able to accommodate the whole family. From a technical point of view, everything was fine with the car, we received it quite quickly, clean. Handed over a little difficult, in terms of the place where it was planned to transfer, you can not stop. And my friend asked to go to the hotel, which is not possible, because the car on the road is not left, I had to get to the nearest parking lot and there to explain where to go to the receiving person to pick up the car, and I had to pay for the parking lot. The handover was a little bit spoiled the impression, but in general we are satisfied with the car, it is technically sound, the receipt is simple and quick. I wanted the one I ordered with a panorama - it would be great with kids on a long trip.
Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey
Rented a Renault Megane for 4 days in Turkey in October 2023 through LocalCarHires.com The procedure of choosing and ordering a car is simple and clear. The manager was always on call in vatsap, ready to help and answer questions We gave a welcome discount of 3% on the first order by promo code The initial payment of 15% paid in rubles from the Russian card. The rest in cash currency upon receipt of the car. The car was fresh (July 2022gv) with low mileage. Technical inspection was passed the day before the lease, the marks in the passport were present. Spare tire and tools were available. The car on the road did not fail. The procedure of registration of the car took about an hour in the office of the rental company (taking into account the cleaning of the interior of the car). We were given tea and coffee, souvenirs. Impressions from ordering, renting and traveling are the best!
Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey
It didn't go well with my lease! They charged me a lot of extra money before I turned the car in. For the car wash was one. I drove on toll roads, then I was shown a receipt of payment, I agreed to it. Next, they said that most likely you were somewhere else, and that the system displays it after 3 days. and that because these charges are not yet in the system, you have to pay double the price. This is their way of insuring that they don't have new accruals coming to them in a couple of days. My arguments and timing that in the system find all the payment points that I crossed they did not take!
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.
