Renault Megane Sedan in the UAE

Suzuki Dzire in the UAE
Great company, I recommend it to everyone and will gladly refer myself if needed! I needed to rent a car for 11 days in September 2025. I found an offer on TakeCars, the car was Suzuk Dzire, in correspondence the guys offered KIA Pegas for the same price, for which they are grateful). Communication took place in WhatsApp, they answer quickly, in detail, favorably, on the merits. The deposit for the car can be transferred in rubles to a Russian card, which is very convenient, the return of the deposit on time, also on the card. I would like to note separately that the company has free delivery and return of the car to Al Maktoum airport - other companies charge extra for this service. On arrival the car was waiting for me in the parking lot at the airport, the car is 2024, with low mileage, in excellent condition. Clean, with a full tank. Drove for 11 days about a thousand kilometers, no problems. The rent was paid in cash dirhams, by agreement returned the car, leaving it in the parking lot at the airport - fast and convenient. Summing up, the most favorable impression of the company remained: the cost of rent, convenience of registration, the condition of the car, the level of customer orientation of the company. - everything is at the highest level! Thank you very much for the high level of service, attitude to the client and responsibility. Success and prosperity to you!
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!
Mazda 6 in the UAE
everything was fine.
Kia K5 in the UAE
We ended up getting a Camry, but everything was great
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.
Nissan X-Terra in the UAE
The car was picked up and handed over late at night, we were kept, and when handed over, not even inspected, just asked to park send a photo and give the keys to the guard. Conveniently no deposit, the car is very comfortable. The attitude to the client is good. We have looked through a lot of offers before and in my opinion they offer the best conditions!!!!. If I come again, I will definitely turn to them.
Renault Megane Sedan in the UAE
Everything went great! The auto was replaced with a newer one. The delivery was on time. The driver was a little delayed when returning the car, but not critical.
Toyota C-HR in the UAE
I am sharing my impressions and experience about renting a car in the Arab emirates in the summer of 24. I ordered a car on the website, made a prepayment in rubles through the website. At the appointed time drove up to the company office, got the keys to the car. Beautiful car, practically new, in excellent technical condition. There are no questions to the car, drove it for two weeks, handed over the car also without any problems. The only problem I had was a letter demanding to pay for toll roads, which came two months after returning to Moscow. And here was a serious enough problem, because it was not difficult to pay the debt on the spot, I had cash with me, the card "Gazprombank" worked, but when I came to Moscow to pay 5000 rubles by bank transfer to the account that was specified, it turned out to be a big problem. I, of course, coped with it, but next time it would be more convenient to immediately check the debt for this service and take it on the spot. And in general everything is good.
Nissan Altima in the UAE
Great guys, nice to talk to, nice car. I rented it for 13 days in the second half of October at a very nice price.
Mazda 6 in the UAE
everything was great.
Geely Coolray in the UAE
Everything was good, except for one moment with giving the car, there is no parking in front of the office, which is surprising and we wrote several times that we would bring the car in the morning, we then had a flight, we were told that we would be met, in the end closed doors, the phone to which no one answers, and we to the airport Thank God the manager picked up the phone.
