Car rental reviews in Istanbul
Fiat Egea in Turkey
The rental is okay, but the machine itself is crap. My chainsaw has a more powerful engine. The car slows down on the highway, even on a slight hill.
Hyundai i20 in Turkey
Everything went perfectly. Issuing and receiving the car - all punctual. The car was as requested. The rating is excellent!
Fiat Egea in Turkey
We did not even expect that it would be so simple and easy. In short .. thanks for the promptness, attentiveness and informational support
Nissan Qashqai in Turkey
I recommend Take Cars! We rented a car for a week in January. Although instead of the ordered Nissan Qashqai we were given a Peugeot of similar class, all the basic conditions were met: the car was new, clean, with winter tires. Service is organized perfectly: brought and picked up on time, the calculation is clear, no additional payments. We were very satisfied. Thank you!
Hyundai Bayon in Turkey
