Everything was good, the condition of the car was good, clean. The manager was polite and explained everything. Only there was one minus rear camera in the car did not work, I damaged the car when I was backing up. But so everything is great! Thank you!
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE

Hyundai Tucson in the UAE
it was very good, 9 from 10. The only thing I did not get the model i chosed at site, but the car offered was aslo suitable and good. I liked the process of car delivery to hotel - everyting was on time.
Renault Megane Sedan in the UAE
the impound car was delivered, the rest is fine.
Mazda 6 in the UAE
There were negative moments: the car was delayed for more than 3 hours, and only after my request. Then several people wrote to me on WhatsApp to find out where to deliver it, although the address was in the order. On acceptance and handing over the car, you sign on the clipboard without seeing what you signed for. In the new damage recorded missing towing hook plug, I had to write to the office and send a video of acceptance, it was without consequences. Otherwise everything was satisfactory
Toyota Rush in the UAE
I rented a car in Dubai from a company where all the guys speak Russian. I liked the fact that I didn't need to leave any deposits. Payment in rubles over the phone and it is very adequate. The car was waiting for us at the airport and all the registration took no more than 3 minutes. We didn't give the car back at all, we just left it at the airport parking lot and sent the photo of the car and parking place by phone. Everything is very fast and very convenient. I recommend this company to everyone. The guys are very specific and problem free.
Audi Q5 in the UAE
Hi it all went well, car was as described, delivered by a competent guy, and recovered as planned. No issue at all...it was a q5, white, well maintained and equipped...
Geely Coolray in the UAE
Everything was great 👍 even better than we imagined. The car was new, delivered to the address, time agreed in advance. Thank you very much! We will definitely rent more cars from you. It is very cool that the issue of prepayment for Russian tourists is solved, it is very valuable.
Toyota Camry in the UAE
All is well. Easy to book. The company was quick to get in touch. The only thing was a little old and dirty car. But the price was low. So this is to be expected. We are waiting for more information about the deposit, the time has not come yet.
Kia K5 in the UAE
Everything went well :) The guys met us at the airport, the car was handed over in good condition, payment was accepted by unionpay card - it turned out to be a nice bonus for us, because initially the information was that only cash was accepted. They don't speak Russian at all, but we understood each other, we agreed where we would meet when returning the car so that we wouldn't have to pay for parking. From there we were taken to the terminal. We have already recommended your resource to several acquaintances on the basis of our positive experience.
Mercedes-Benz A45-S in the UAE
Nice!
Mitsubishi Xpander in the UAE
Everything went perfectly! We booked Mitsubishi Xpander, but on arrival we were offered Volkswagen Teramont. But we were not disappointed, even on the contrary, it was nice to get a more comfortable car for the same money. All questions were solved promptly. And there were no problems with the extension. On our next trip to the UAE, we will definitely turn to you for car rental. Thank you!
Kia K5 in the UAE
They didn't give me the car I booked. It had a lot of bodywork issues. Still haven't gotten my change back
