Nissan Kicks in the UAE
The car was provided as described. My flight was delayed, so we had to agree on another time, so there were no problems. I took photos and video in the airport parking lot and left the keys in the car. So far everything is fine.
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
Excellent service! Everything is clear on the time of delivery of the car, even in advance. The car corresponds to the description, everything is in good condition. The lessor is always in touch, explained everything, advised. Price = quality! I recommend to everyone!
Nissan Altima in the UAE
Very pleased with everything. I easily booked a car for the dates through the app. Without knowing the language at all, they gave me a car with two documents. Nice people. They didn't take any deposits. The car was clean, new, almost like in the picture. They explained how to pay for paid parking. I drove it from Dubai to Abu Dhabi. Handed the car back at the end. No fines or extra money was charged. Everyone was very nice, I can recommend them!
Jetour X70 in the UAE
Everything is fine, the rental was satisfactory
Nissan Kicks in the UAE
Everything went well, payment and car rental went comfortably for us.
Kia K5 in the UAE
From the minuses - it was indicated that the car may be different, but the same class - about what car you find out after the fact, for someone it may be critical (not for us) The start of the rental was a little delayed, but since we were informed of the delay in advance we made a normal arrangement Overall, it was very convenient in terms of communication The car is also in excellent condition - clean We liked it, decided that if we go again, we will also take the car).
MG ZS in the UAE
The car is great, the guys from the rental organization too
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
Wonderful service! It is very convenient to book a car through the site (everything is described in such detail that I did not even have to contact the support with leading questions, I managed on my own). In general, the site is intuitive, filters are all there and work very adequately, very liked the system of reviews of rental companies (you can choose a responsible organization). Prices are pleasant and do not scare off, there is even a system of promo codes, which you can search the Internet and rent will be a little cheaper. The biggest plus for me is the possibility to rent a car without a deposit/credit card, as well as the possibility to prepay it with a Russian bank card. Everything went without any problems, we wrote to the rental company in Whatsapp a couple of days before the arrival, they gave the number of the manager who will issue the car at the airport (we also communicated with him on Whatsapp). They met me normally, took the car, noted the damage, etc., all in electronic form, all the documents were also sent to email and whatsapp. I handed over the car as easily as I took it - not a single problem, everything is convenient and without unnecessary movements! In general, I liked the service very much - I will use it again!
Peugeot 3008 in the UAE
The car is excellent. No problems with pickup and drop off, everything on time. The price was satisfactory, the lack of deposit is very convenient. I am satisfied with the fact that I ordered the car through your site. I will recommend to my friends. Next year I hope to use your services again.
Chevrolet Spark in the UAE
I wouldn’t like to speak negatively, but there’s no other way. Firstly, the car was not the one I rented, secondly, the car was very dirty, and thirdly, they did not return the deposit despite the fact that it had already been a month. I’m very unhappy and I think I’m not the first person.
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.
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
Mitsubishi car was not available, we were given a higher class car, everything went great, service is top notch
Kia K5 in the UAE
Took a mazda 6, score 5, everything is comfortable
