Peugeot 508 in Turkey

Everything went well, they provided a Mercedes c200d instead of a Peugeot, but we were fine with that. Thank you! The only thing is that the company forgot to put a child seat in the car and I had to go to the other end of Istanbul to get it. No one offered to bring it or somehow deliver it, want I paid money for it

Opel Zafira Life 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 Clio 5 in Turkey

Emir met us at the airport and took us to the office to sign the contract - it is 8-10 minutes from the airport. The whole procedure took another 10 minutes and we picked up the car. I took a Renault Clio - clean, fresh. It was just right for Istanbul! I rented the car at the same place where I signed the contract. It took no more than 10 minutes. Emir also took us from there to the airport. I am completely satisfied with the service, I recommend it!

Dacia Duster in Turkey

We were given an Opel in perfect condition. The car is good, clean, we drove more than 1000 km and had no complaints. The site is convenient, beautiful. Everything is clear. The only thing is that when booking I specified the flight, but we were not met. Had to search the internet and try to contact. Spent about 15 extra minutes. Thank you for a really great service.

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-

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

Hyundai Accent Sport Sedan in Turkey

I rented, but they gave me an Opel crossland with a surcharge, because I didn't have a Hyundai. In general, I think they were very surprised when I came to their office, and it took them a long time to figure it out. In general, everything went well, except for the communication. People there know only Turkish. They gave me a new car.

Renault Clio 5 in Turkey

Everything was fine. No complaints about the car - everything was as stated, the condition was excellent. The process of issuing and handing over - no questions, everything is clear and understandable (for me at least). Not transparent issue with the cost of toll roads in Istanbul and surrounding areas. I don't know if there is a way to check the calculation of the 'payable post facto' amount. Bottom line: I can recommend the rental company, Your booking service too.
