Mercedes-Benz C300 Cabrio in the UAE
I was happy with the car and had no problems with the booking. But when the car arrived, they told me to pay 991 dirhams, although after making a deposit, I only had to pay 917.57 dirhams

Toyota C-HR in the UAE
Everything was great. Very simple and easy from booking the car to returning it. The car is in order, clean, new. I was pleased with the absence of a deposit, it is a very important point! Next time I will definitely rent a car from you.
BMW 430 M Sport Cabrio in the UAE

Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
The car was changed to a similar, almost new one. There were no problems with the rental, support was always on the phone, any questions were solved promptly. Everything was great, thank you!
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
I liked everything about it. I will use it in the future
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
The car, of course, doesn’t drive at all, but God bless her for choosing it. They brought the car with a half-filled tank (although when returning they ask to fill it up to full) + plus they charged 35 dirhams at the airport, although, as agreed, everything was paid for. I didn’t like it, I definitely won’t rent from you again. Little things, little things, but it’s very unpleasant when they try to deceive you. Moreover, as I wrote earlier, everything was stipulated
JAC JS4 in the UAE
The car was replaced by another car of the same class - a Nissan. I was unfortunately not met at the airport. I called the phone numbers from the application and after I got in touch with the lessors I met them at the parking lot at the airport, paid for parking and used the car. The car is in good condition, no complaints. When handing over the car I was told that the car had to be washed, and the amount of washing would be deducted from my deposit. I was surprised - the car was in the dust, there was no serious pollution (but maybe I was inattentive and it really should have been done by me). The deposit would be returned to me in 21 days after the car was handed over, as I was told by the representative at the airport, minus the car wash. They informed me that they will return it by transfer to my card in rubles. I am looking forward to it
Hyundai Accent in the UAE
Everything is great! The staff is friendly, responsive, the car is in good condition. I will recommend you to my friends and acquaintances.
MG ZS in the UAE
The car is great, the guys from the rental organization too
Hyundai i10 in the UAE
I recommend to everyone to rent a car from them. The managers are friendly, the service is top notch! I booked a car for 10 days, but my flight was delayed for a day, I wrote to the manager, they recalculated the cost of rent without any questions or commissions. The car was brought exactly to the time, right to the hotel. The cars are clean, well-maintained both outside and inside. A pleasant bonus - a bottle of water. The car does not need to be washed before handing it over, they warn you about it when handing over the car. The cost of washing is deducted from the deposit. The deposit was returned with the deduction of washing and toll roads to the Russian card in 20 days. Deserved 5 stars!
Hyundai Accent in the UAE
The car was provided to the airport at the appointed time, the car was not of the brand that was ordered, but it was provided of a similar class. The deposit was returned without delay. Satisfied with the service!
