The car was in excellent condition, very large and comfortable. They offered us a free upgrade upon our arrival, and delivery was quick and easy, thanks in part to Trip's recommendations for what to pack. Returning it was also quick and easy. Highly recommended!

Great new car that's fun to drive. I had a minor breakdown, and the dealer helped me out and gave me a new car without hesitation or charge. Very straightforward, I'd gladly use them again.

The pick up took a while as there were many people waiting to rent their cars but other than that, the service provided was great abd the cars worked fine.

Car was a better spec than ordered and was very robust - needed for the terrain in the area. Staff very helpful and returned the full deposit with no fuss.

Everything went well with the reservation. The company was Chilean. I arrived 2 hours early because my flight was brought forward and there were no cars available yet. I waited and shortly before the pick-up time I managed to get the car. It was a Baleno, super economical and good to drive.
