From the awe-inspiring Sheikh Zayed Mosque in Abu Dhabi to the bustling Dubai Mall and the sparkling gold souks, there's a wealth of sights to see.

Volkswagen Jetta in the UAE
There was a minor technical fault - if I wasn't an experienced driver, it would have been a major problem
Nissan Sunny in the UAE
The company requested scans of passport and driver's license on the day before the car was delivered, so on the day of pickup no additional documents had to be filled out. Due to the delay at the airport I was not in time to receive the car, I contacted the company via WhatsApp, they responded promptly and rescheduled the time of delivery to a later date. I received the car in the hotel, the representative contacted me before arrival and clarified the address. The only disadvantage - the representative did not have change when paying in cash, I had to run to find change. The car though of 2023 year of manufacture, but a little tired (body and interior), otherwise - no complaints, quite a decent condition, for the segment "economy" - just right. An undoubted plus - the presence of Android Auto in the car, without problems we managed to connect the phone for navigation. In previous trips I also rented Nissan Sunny, so I didn't have to get used to it. I drove carefully, avoided saliks, so at the end of the lease I did not pay anything extra. The return process is as simple as possible, I left the car keys at the hotel reception and that's all. Takecars as an aggregator deserves all praise because of the simple and transparent process of registration of rent and acceptance of prepayment from Russian cards. Good luck to you!
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
Everything went great! There was no Mitsubishi, they gave me a better Suzuki car. The car is new, there were no problems with receiving and handing over the car. Everything went great. I recommend your site to everyone, I will definitely leave a review on the site itself
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
do not return the deposit, cheat! 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!
Nissan Kicks in the UAE
In general, we are satisfied. We will come back in December to take the car again. Thank you
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
In the end we rented a Toyota Corolla, in general the condition is not bad, but a lot of scratches on the outside and inside stains on the upholstery (we fixed everything ourselves and in the documents). Receipt was in BC, no signage, barely found with the help of an employee! I suggest to add a sign on the internal window in the common hall and to specify details in the message in e-mail. To surrender the car it was necessary to park it somewhere near the BC, wait for 15 minutes and put a signature on the tablet of the receiving employee: everything is in order. In general, everything was satisfactory, the car was well-equipped (I requested cruise control and it was there, they also connected a smartphone to the stereo), price-quality, we rented the car with hull insurance, no deposit.
Mazda 6 in the UAE
Everything went great. The car was brought and picked up on time. The car is as described 👍👍👍👍
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.
JAC JS4 in the UAE
The car was replaced by another car of the same class - a Nissan. I was unfortunately not met at the airport. I called the phone numbers from the application and after I got in touch with the lessors I met them at the parking lot at the airport, paid for parking and used the car. The car is in good condition, no complaints. When handing over the car I was told that the car had to be washed, and the amount of washing would be deducted from my deposit. I was surprised - the car was in the dust, there was no serious pollution (but maybe I was inattentive and it really should have been done by me). The deposit would be returned to me in 21 days after the car was handed over, as I was told by the representative at the airport, minus the car wash. They informed me that they will return it by transfer to my card in rubles. I am looking forward to it
Chevrolet Aveo in the UAE
Everything went well. The only thing was that we had a long meeting with the car delivery driver. As we would have liked him to meet us in the arrival area, but in the end he met us at the fifth exit of the departure area, which is not very convenient at a large airport. The landlord charged 100 dirhams for washing the car, which will be deducted from the deposit. I am waiting for the deposit to be returned. And so the car is quite working, although a little battered by life, but for this money for the UAE it is a sin to complain
Chevrolet Aveo in the UAE
The deposit for the car was never returned...
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
We rented a car online through the website, without a deposit, which was crucial for us, as we have no opportunity to provide a foreign credit card to block the funds on it for a deposit. The car was brought directly to the airport, which is very convenient. We were given a higher class than it was stated - thank you for that! There were no problems with the car, at the speed of 120 it automatically triggered a signal that you need to slow down in order to avoid a fine. Gave the car back also at the airport, even without meeting the driver. Asked to take a video of the car and put the key on the left front wheel. Thank you for your trust and such convenient conditions, we will definitely apply 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.
