Toyota Camry in the UAE
I got an Audi A3 instead of a Camry, it didn't affect me in any way. Everything went perfectly, I received it in Dubai mall and handed it over at the airport. There were no problems, the price was fine. The landlord was always in touch. Feedback on the site, also everything is fine, it is convenient that you can pay by RF card, in the UAE paid through Union Pay. I would like to be able to pay 100% of the rent on the site, 15-20% to write off and the rest with a hold and then write off after the fact, so as not to pay directly to the landlord. It was very convenient that there was no deductible or deposit.

You failed with the Toyota. You suggested the VW Teramont. Thank you, it went great!
Toyota Camry in the UAE
Excellent experience renting a car from TakeCars in Dubai. Everything went as fast as possible and very customer-oriented: I received the car without delays and handed it over just as quickly. Special thanks to manager Aka - all communication was clear and comfortable, payment issues were solved promptly and efficiently. In general, I was very satisfied with the service, I recommend it.

It's okay!

It's fine.
Ford Mustang GT Cabrio in the UAE
I wish it were better. There are no questions about the car. I didn’t like two things: 1. We received the car with 10 km of petrol left. We nearly died out while we found a gas station. Upon arrival, I wanted to relax and not to be puzzled where to find a gas station. As a result, we devoted half of the evening to this issue instead of just traveling on business. 2. Delivery of a car - a person is late, it is very difficult to communicate, he does not understand anything and can not get through in any way. We were late for the event due to a delay in submission. Delayed not inspection of the car, namely the arrival of a person. In the end, it wasn't even he who came. To be honest, there is no desire to use the service again. The experience is rather negative than positive. If the fuel policy is principled, they would have warned in advance, I would have paid for a full tank.

Everything was great. Thank you so much

I’d say the experience was a bit painful as they’ve provided the other car instead and we’re waiting for it for more than 2 hours. But we understood that that was due to the driver got collision on the way to the meeting point, hence, they had to assign another car. Also, the documents were provided at time of the car return, which was a reason we’ve been a bit nervous during the day if we’re protected at all and the rent agencies services are legal. Finally, we’ve been told that the deposit will be returned in 21 working days which is kind of non sense for us - from our experience it come back in 14 calendar days as a maximum.
Kia Seltos in the UAE
Frankly speaking, "well, such a thing" The request for transfer from the airport has been falsified, as a result, I had to go separately for the car and also to hand it over, in the presence of a large oversized luggage (for this purpose the car was taken). Communication from the guys on the spot was below the plinth, I could barely get the car back (with fluent spoken English on my part). In general, I will definitely not take it again, I will look for something else From the good - the car is fresh
Nissan X-Terra in the UAE
Everything went well with the rental car. They gave me a Mazda instead of a Nissan, which I didn't mind in principle!
Nissan Sunny in the UAE
I am satisfied with the car rental. I booked a car for the entire duration of my vacation. The car is in good condition. Correspondence with the managers was at a basic level of English. Depositing a deposit is really not necessary. When handing over the rental car, all existing damages outside and inside are documented in the protocol. The car was delivered to the hotel and picked up there at my request. The trip went smoothly, and the return of the car went just as smoothly. Everything is simple and clear. I will definitely turn to them for my next trip.
