What our users say
Mitsubishi Attrage in the UAE
We rented a car. The service is great. We were delivered to the airport. We upgraded the class of car free of charge - we got a new Toyota Camry with mileage of only 19 thousand kilometers. I recommend this service and Akil.
Nissan Maxima in the UAE
all is well
Renault Duster in the UAE
Everything was great. Thank you!
Porsche 718 Boxster S in the UAE
I liked everything the car was delivered at 10:00, I forgot and only woke up at 10, but they waited for me, they took me away too at 10, I gave it with a full tank, there was a Gas Station nearby, everything was convenient on the Site, I immediately chose the model that I liked, 2 people wrote to me they explained everything in vatsap in detail, the car is just emotions, I have Kaen in Kiev, I thought to take a boxter as a second car, but I think it won't go for Kiev, but for Dubai, the very thing, you won't go with an open roof during the day, it's very hot, although some are desperate they drive (they also took a convertible, you can immediately see ours) and in the evening ride in a thrill, but if it's already uncomfortable on the highway above 100 km, I'm generally satisfied with the car and the service, I hope next time I'll take something better or if I live far from the center Something simpler for the entire stay, a taxi is expensive to go far, it's easier to take a regular car, I'm waiting for you to return the deposit, I hope there are no fines, I tried. And it's also important to keep track of the km, I dashed off 230 km from 250 available
Hyundai Kona in the UAE
I rented a car from TakeCars, I was satisfied with the service, I can definitely recommend it to tourists. One of the big pluses is that you can rent a car without a deposit. I ordered Hyundai Kona, they gave me another car of the same class (Hyundai creta), it was important for me that there was carplay, it was there, it worked without problems. The car was delivered to the hotel, we examined it and accepted it. When handing over the car the employee did not have time to take it from us before our departure from the hotel, asked to send a photo and leave the keys at the reception. We provided a photo via whats app, in response we received "ok" and left the keys at reception. In general, everything worked out super !
Toyota Yaris in the UAE
в плане коммуникации все отлично. Сама машина была другая - тот же класс, но другая. Это и не проблема. Единственный минус – салон был прям грязный, сами сиденья в смысле
Kia K5 in the UAE
Thank you very much to your company for providing the vehicle! 🙏🏻 Everything was at the highest level - delivery transfer, payment through the terminal, car rides are a pleasure! Wonderful service and the car Kia K-5!
Renault Megane Sedan in the UAE
the impound car was delivered, the rest is fine.
Infiniti Q30 in the UAE
Everything was great
Hyundai Santa Fe in the UAE
Everything is ok, except guides about the place at the airport, where we could meet with the company representative and drop off the car.
Kia K5 in the UAE
Instead of Kia K5 - Totyota Camry .. and at departure - no one came at all, I had to call up - they asked me to leave the keys under the wheel.
Chevrolet Captiva in the UAE
Everything went fine. But only I did not understand why I paid some extra fine. There is a moment when I gave the car away, corresponded with three people, and it is not clear who was supposed to come, as a result, 2 employees of the company arrived for the car.
Hyundai Tucson in the UAE
Everything is good, except that there is no possibility to pick up the car immediately at the airport. On arrival I had to wait 40 minutes for a transfer to the office, in the office I had to wait 50 minutes for the rental car to arrive. Total after arrival time to the moment when I sat in the rented car was 2 hours. There are no claims to the condition of the car. When handing over the car, the receiver wanted to divorce me for 20 adh for gasoline, although there was more in the tank than when I took the car. After my mentioning the terms of the contract in terms of gasoline "same to same" there were no more questions. And it is also very inconvenient that the acceptance of the car takes place in a city parking lot, a place in which it is quite problematic to find. Besides, there is a chance to get a fine for unpaid parking. At the same time, the office has an underground parking lot. It is unclear why it cannot be used for pickup and drop-off.
