Mazda 6 in the UAE
Everything went great. The car was brought and picked up on time. The car is as described 👍👍👍👍
Nissan Kicks in the UAE
Great car rental service! Recently rented a Nissan Kicks car and was very satisfied! The car was almost new in good condition, clean and fueled. The paperwork took minimum time - Farook manager drove the car to the hotel, helped to inspect the car, fixed all the damage on the body, explained everything clearly and without unnecessary questions. Prices are adequate, without hidden commissions. I took out full insurance just in case. For 10 days of rent no problems with the car. I did not break any traffic rules, did not drive on toll roads. The return of the car also went without any problems. On the day of return, Farook manager called, arranged a place near the airport, washed the car before the return, checked the car, no new damage was found, then we were taken to the airport. Farook is the best, provides high level of service👍 If you need a reliable car rental with honest terms, I recommend this company! Will definitely apply again.
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

Honda HR-V in the UAE
there were some problems, the first is that there was a slightly different plan of the car, then when receiving the employee said that you can only pay by card, well with this we somehow sorted out and the third is that the car was taken away from me at 1:00 a.m. although they were supposed to be at 5:00 p.m., these nuances were

Everything went well both in terms of your service and the service of the landlord. I am happy with everything, if people I know ask me where they can rent conveniently, I will recommend to book with this landlord through you. :)
Mercedes-Benz C300 Cabrio in the UAE
On 21.12.2023 rented a Mercedes convertible car in the UAE DUBAI. On your website and in the booking documents it was stated that no deposit was required! On December 21 the driver arrived, was late for the appointed time and demanded a deposit. The deposit had to be made in cash or by card at the terminal. We did not have this amount in cash, the cards are Russian. The driver refused the service and drove away. In WhatsApp with the Russian-speaking manager we agreed that the driver would return, provide the service, and we would send the deposit to the Russian card. All this took a very long time, the driver came back, checked us in, handed over the car, meaning we took the car 2-3 hours late. We decided to clarify with the manager of your company, whether the next day we can give the car a little later, because we took it later than the necessary time. The answer we got was that no problem, it's not a big deal. We asked for the car for 2 hours later. All correspondence, conversations with this manager are available. At the appointed time for the driver, the driver was again late and arrived 40-50 minutes later. We were told that the deposit would be refunded within 18 business days. We were also told that the deposit is an amount that is taken to write off fines and road tolls. After a while we were sent a document and the deposit was returned. BUT! the deposit was transferred to us at a rate at which we lost a lot of money! At least no one told us that the exchange rate during the transfer will be such and you will lose money. Deposit is basically the cost, which is returned in full amount!!!!. Most importantly we were counted 2 full days! With all the arrangements. The manager promised to sort out the situation and refund the money for the second day. In the end, a few weeks later, for him just began to answer another person who does not even get into the situation Please resolve the issue. It's been more than 2 months, reviews of your firm are good, would not want to solve the issue in a legislative way, appeal to the police.

Renault Megane Sedan in the UAE
The rental car went very well. They met us at the airport, showed us the car and helped us get settled. Of the minuses, the manager forgot to give us the key and had to run to the airport building to get it, and he did not tell us how much airport parking was paid and we had to pay extra for it later. Our rent a car we were very satisfied with. The manager answered our questions about driving the car. At the end of renting, I was contacted by WhatsApp one day in advance to clarify whether all plans are in force. I rented the car at the agreed place near the airport, then we were driven to the airport. I was very pleased with the rental and have already recommended your service to my friends to rent a car.
Nissan Kicks in the UAE
Great car rental company. Delivered on time. Tinting in the UAE is a lifesaver. No deposit which is very good. Drove 1100 km, visited five emirates. I was afraid that the car will not withstand the heat, but it just worked out great! Thank you very much!
