Friendly Staff

Most cars are new except for the 12-seater Toyota Van which have old matting.. Overall, the car I rented were in their best engine performance and condition.Kudos to the friendly and helpful Staff. The prices are reasonable. Highly recommended.

Overall great value

The booking process online was easy, and the process to collect and drop off the car was easy and short. The price was great value. The shuttle pick up from the airport could have been a bit quicker - we waited more than half an hour.

We arrived much earlier than intended…

We arrived much earlier than intended and thought we would be waiting around for an hour! Luckily the representative found us a car immediately, explained it hadn’t been detailed but was clean and fuelled up. We thanked him for his great and efficient service after he explained in clear and concise English all the hire details. Great service, great car and a very pleasing experience.
