Nissan Altima in the UAE
Very pleased with everything. I easily booked a car for the dates through the app. Without knowing the language at all, they gave me a car with two documents. Nice people. They didn't take any deposits. The car was clean, new, almost like in the picture. They explained how to pay for paid parking. I drove it from Dubai to Abu Dhabi. Handed the car back at the end. No fines or extra money was charged. Everyone was very nice, I can recommend them!

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 X-Terra in the UAE
I liked everything. The rental service itself is very convenient, you can put filters and customize the car to your request - this is a huge plus. Also the prices through TakeCars are lower than doing it directly through the rental company. Convenient way to pay and book a car with a Russian card. Quick confirmation. The rental company itself and the car is in good order, no comments. We received exactly the car that was on the photo and in the description, without substitutions. The only thing is that we made a little mistake with the car, we should have taken something more mobile and dynamic
Nissan X-Trail in the UAE
I liked everything. Everything is clear, as agreed!
Toyota Rush in the UAE
I rented a car in Dubai from a company where all the guys speak Russian. I liked the fact that I didn't need to leave any deposits. Payment in rubles over the phone and it is very adequate. The car was waiting for us at the airport and all the registration took no more than 3 minutes. We didn't give the car back at all, we just left it at the airport parking lot and sent the photo of the car and parking place by phone. Everything is very fast and very convenient. I recommend this company to everyone. The guys are very specific and problem free.
Hyundai Elantra in the UAE
Everything went well. No complaints at all. The car was better than the original booking. The car was clean, both inside and outside. They answered all my questions, told me what to pay attention to when driving in the UAE. All questions were answered promptly during the rental period. Thank you very much!
Nissan Kicks in the UAE
We were satisfied with the ordering service, the payment and the car. The car was in excellent condition, practically new 2024. It was convenient that the rental was deposit-free and we could pay for everything with a Russian card.
Nissan Kicks in the UAE
I liked the service. The car was fresh, comfortable. No deposit was required. When receiving everything I took pictures and video (there were some small bumps on the body), when handing it over I checked it - signed the documents and that's it. There were no problems. In the future I will also rent here. For Russians such companies are a salvation, because we can't leave a deposit as before).
