Kia K5 in the UAE
Many thanks to Akil - everything went smoothly! I was contacted in advance on whatsapp, upon arrival they drove the car to the DXB airport, Arrivals zone. Full tank filled. I rented a car in the same place at the airport, Departures zone. Delivery took 5 minutes - quickly inspected the car. They also contacted me in advance on Whatsapp to clarify a convenient time for delivery. The car is in excellent condition. Please note that when driving on toll roads, you accumulate a debt - you will need to pay it when you return the car (I hit Salik 60 AED). Also keep in mind that the entrance to the parking area at the airport is paid and upon acceptance of the car, you will need to pay it additionally in the Pay Zone (30-40 AED). All fines, etc. - are also paid by you (which is quite logical). In all other respects, the payment corresponded to the original agreement, nothing more was required. For Russians - there is a payment by transfer to the Russian Federation by a card (Sberbank, you can use SBP) - very convenient if you don’t want to immediately bother with exchange at the airport and there are no international Visa / Mastercard cards (they can also be paid on the spot - the employee has a terminal with him for maps). Thanks to Akil for organizing the possibility of paying in rubles! I put 5 stars, I will definitely order again!

Mazda 6 in the UAE
Excellent service for finding cars in the UAE. And the best car rental company for residents of the Russian Federation. In connection with the absence of visa cards and the need to leave an impressive deposit, renting a car abroad has become an event not simple. This company has solved all issues in favor of the renter. It is the only one on the rental market that gives a car without a deposit, while keeping the rental price at a competitive level. I rented a Mazda 6 for 10 days for 1200 aed. The car is in good technical condition. Getting and returning the car was easy. I have not found a better offer and I have never regretted that I used the service of this company
Hyundai Santa Fe in the UAE
Everything is ok, except guides about the place at the airport, where we could meet with the company representative and drop off the car.
Suzuki Ciaz in the UAE
Everything went very well. The car was brought to the appointed place, at the appointed time. Everything is clean and tidy. Thank you, if there is an opportunity to visit Dubai again, I will definitely contact you.
Geely Coolray in the UAE
Car was great, in good condition and low mileage. Clean, no damage of any kind. The registration process was easy and quick. The only problem was at the stage of returning the car - the company has a parking lot near the office for the return, but it was occupied when we came to return the car and we drove around in circles in the area, trying to find free time and in parallel communicating with the manager. In the end we spent more than an hour, but we could not leave the car and came the next day in the morning (at 7 am), when there were no cars in the parking lot and handed over the keys with the car. Apart from these problems, everything else was great! For Russian citizens, this service is a lifesaver, as no deposit is needed.
