What our users say
Hyundai Tucson in the UAE
1. We booked a car at the airport, but in fact we took a cab from the airport to our office. It is inconvenient with children and suitcases constantly overloaded. 2. The car was different, but not worse. 3. The rental itself was fine. 4. Then different people contacted me and asked the same questions about the return time, etc. 5. Then when I ordered a cab for 16.00 from the rental office to the airport, the drivers started calling me at 4.00 am, mixing up the morning with the evening. 6. Further when I arrived at their office, I had to go up to their office and had to deal with the cab for a long time. 7. Further every 10 minutes I was told that in 5 minutes will be a cab to the airport, was late for 35 min car in the end. 8. In general, the service is lame, to put it mildly. 9. In exchange for the inconvenience of nothing offered, even took extra money for not getting gasoline in double the amount.

Nissan Kicks in the UAE
Everything was great. The car was clean, cozy. We drove it around the UAE, went from Dubai to Fujairah, visited a mosque. And in general I had a great time with my wife, also thanks to the availability of the car.

Ford Mustang GT Cabrio in the UAE
car was delivered to the hotel, the driver took all the pictures of the car and sent it to me in whatsapp. There were no visible issues and i signed the paper. I requested the car for one day, but the driver contacted me late in the evening and said that he was expecting me to return the car the same day. I said that he can take the car, that we have already finished our trip. The driver thoroughly checked the car and said that everything was ok except that I draw 70km over the limit of contract and I need to pay 5 Dirham.

I contacted the site administration, they said they would solve the problem, but they stopped contacting me, they say they will transfer wait for me, but I've been waiting for 2 months and still do not transfer, they have holidays or something else, now they stopped responding to messages! I highly do not recommend to rent a car in this company!
