Audi Q8 in the UAE
All was good. There are no questions about rent. The only thing - it would be more convenient to know the vehicle fleet in advance.
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
Everything went well. The site is fast, easy to use, it is convenient that there is a filter to search for the desired criteria. It was important for me to find an offer without deposit, as I don't have an international card to deposit it. Initially I chose a different car from another company, but later your colleague contacted me and offered me a replacement. The latter company provided the exact car that was booked. The staff at the rental company was eager to help resolve any questions I had. My questions were mainly about how to pay for paid parking lots in Dubai. Thank them for their patience, tried several ways, found a working one that suited me. They explained three times how to use it, as they doubted that I understood everything from the first time, given my poor level of English. The car was 2023, with a mileage of 50 thousand kilometers, in good technical condition. I quickly inspected the car, took all the damages on video just in case, signed the documents and left. With the delivery of the car as well everything quickly, there were no problems.
Nissan Kicks in the UAE
Thank you very much for the opportunity to rent a car! Everything was convenient and easy - I ordered, called you, we drove it to the hotel, at the end of the rental we met with your representative and handed over the car with the payment of the fine. Nissan Kicks satisfied me completely. Great car! I will recommend your site for car rental to my companions. Thank you for your service 🤝
Kia K5 in the UAE
Everything was great, just don't have time to write )) Everything went well with the rental, the car was brought to the airport on time, easy to find, quickly formalized everything. The car was in very good condition. At the reception I looked at one damage, and the lessor could have taken compensation from me (so I thought someone hit me in the parking lot), but he honestly reported that this damage was already there, this attitude is very pleased. I give it a 5!

BMW 420i Cabrio in the UAE
Ordered a car bmw 420 cabriolet, 8 hours before departure from Moscow to the airport in Dubai dxb. When I arrived the car was in place, the car was clean, without any fingers on the body and dust in the cabin with a full tank of gas. The car was practically new 15k mileage. At first I took for 2 days, in the process decided to extend for another 2 days, all without problems allowed. In general, the agency is recommended!

Toyota Camry in the UAE
Everything actually went quite well, no problems, the car is excellent, value for money - very good. No complaints at all
JAC JS4 in the UAE
Everything is fine with the car, the problems are related to collecting the money. First of all, when I got the keys, the amount for rent was more than in the voucher. I paid more by about 100 dirhams. I wanted to return the deposit (1500dirham) I returned the car in November 2025, now February 2026 and nobody returned it to me. Paid in cash, return to Russian and CIS cards is not possible. Through cryptocurrencies also do not return. Very cool to just give away 1700 dirhams when the rent is 700dirhams
Mitsubishi Outlander in the UAE
Everything went well, the car is just as pictured, all the description is true.
Mazda 6 in the UAE
