Fantastic Service

We were put on an earlier flight due to our original one been delayed so we were 2hrs early to collect the car. Go Rentals came and picked us up, stored our bags at their depot and took us to a cafe close by so we could wait and have coffee etc. They then got our car ready as soon as they could, then came and collected us from the cafe. Fantastic service, nothing was a problem. Car was in excellent condition. 100% reccommend them. Friendly staff, great service!

My 1st Time on GoRental & Very Happy!

This was my first time trying GoRental after reading the reviews, and I’m so glad I did! Everything was incredibly smooth from start to finish.
I downloaded their app and used it to request the airport shuttle — the waiting instructions were very clear and easy to follow. Both the car collection and return processes were seamless. We were originally scheduled to return the car on 24 July at 3pm, but I called to request an extension until the next morning at 9am. Within a minute, I received an email confirming the extension at no extra charge — excellent service!
The return process itself was extremely smooth and easy, and the staff were all very friendly. Highly recommended!

Smooth and easy rental process

We are a satisfied customer.
This is our first time using a rental vehicle and service, but all I can is that IT IS REALLY WORTH IT. The price was fair, the condition of the car is new, and most of all the experience was amazing. From the beginning process on their website, everything was straightforward. No hidden charges, and very easy to follow through.
Overall, it was an excellent experience with GoRentals.
