Nissan Sunny in the UAE
Everything is good, timely delivery, pick up. Next time we will turn to your services.
Nissan X-Trail in the UAE
I can recommend this company. Because there was not even a hint of a "scam" and so on. Moreover, I was given a 2023 Xtrail! Auto surprisingly Pret and I even checked its all-wheel drive on the sand, but at speeds above 140km begins to drive, another minus all rented cars are not tinted, the company should have tinted, at least partially in the cheapest film. The guy "delivery man" himself noted a scratch on the panel, which I would not even notice, no way! When handing over, similarly, they didn't look for anything on purpose, moreover, it turned out that I didn't fill up the fuel, thinking that I was handing over the car with 50% level, they said that 60% I started to resist, they eventually forgave :D When I finally found the photo, saw that there was a real misunderstanding and it was 60% I gave the driver the amount for fuel, thinking that they themselves will solve everything, but he refueled it and sent me the photo and the receipt :D I thought he will take to himself on Tips already. Also the car was in the dust so to speak, I wiped what I could, but still, although the requirement to return the car clean! But that's sometimes very difficult after a trip through the desert. I told about it earlier, they said it's OK. P.S.. By experience of delivery and return, it is better to take and put the car yourself if possible, otherwise the terms in Dubai are not predictable.
Mazda CX-5 in the UAE
It's not that it's bad at all, but... The car I ordered was not available, although I ordered in advance. I was offered another option and under different conditions (mileage limit per day), and then there were moments...
Hyundai Tucson in the UAE
Everything was good, I liked everything, nice and smiling guy gave and received the car. The only disadvantage was the change of car, we rented a Tucson, but they brought Mazda. And so everything is great, thank you ☺️
Dodge Challenger in the UAE
everything went great.
Chevrolet Captiva in the UAE
Everything went fine. But only I did not understand why I paid some extra fine. There is a moment when I gave the car away, corresponded with three people, and it is not clear who was supposed to come, as a result, 2 employees of the company arrived for the car.
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
Overall it's good, except the cost of the fines cost a lot more than the cost of the rental. It would be cool if there was some sort of manual on what to pay attention to. Instructions on how to pay in parking machines, instructions on how to pay a fine in the local traffic police, UAE id, some general information that Yandex maps do not show current road repairs and you can accidentally violate because of this, information that Yandex maps lie about free parking, maybe recommendations of the best navigators for the Emirates... spent half of my vacation on figuring this shit out instead of having a rest. The bill for payment of toll roads, already comes on return to Russia, respectively dancing with tambourine how to pay, maps RF do not pass. There are no complaints about the staff in the office in Dubai, polite, helpful, trying to help.
Mazda 6 in the UAE
It's okay!
GAC GN 8 in the UAE
it's all good!
Volkswagen Atlas in the UAE
Everything's great!
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.
Jetour X70 in the UAE
Everything is fine, the rental was satisfactory
Nissan Kicks in the UAE
I recently rented a car from TakeCars.com in Sharjah and was very pleased with my experience. The booking process was easy and convenient: I was able to select the model I wanted through the website and specify the date and time of the rental. I also ordered delivery of the car to the hotel through the website. At the appointed time it was brought without delay. The car was in excellent condition, clean and ready to go. I rented a Nissan Kicks and it handled the roads perfectly. I especially liked that the company provided all the necessary documents and insurance, which added confidence during the trip. Returning the vehicle went as smoothly as receiving it. There were no hidden fees, we arrived at the hotel at the appointed time and picked up the car. I was very satisfied with the services of TakeCars.com and will gladly use their services again. I recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable car rental!
