good service & price, return was smooth & hassle free. Would suggest an Adelaide map in the glove box for interstate visitors even though it had a GPS function, for reference.

Hired a Suzuki swift. The fuel economy was fantastic. The suspension/ tyres were harsh for a car with only 11,000 ks on it. Other than that it’s a great little car.
Very easy transaction for both pick up and return with friendly helpful staff. We also got upgraded and was able to entend our booking witjout any hassles. Thoroughly recomend these guys
Staff were friendly, vehicle was in great condition, seamless pick up and delivery. The only issue was there was a bit of a queue to pick the car up, only one staff member working, but staff were apologetic and very nice about the delay.

They are very nice and helpful. I was a little confused as where to go as they have a shuttle to the airport, but are not physically at the airport.

Booked car hire, received confirmation via email. At time of collection received another email stating our booking was cancelled. Claimed to be located at Adelaide Airport, is in fact 10mins drive from airport. Customer service nonexistent.
Mostly good but lack of flexibility with drop off times is annoying especially if your flight is delayed.

retty poor for an airport rental company. Should have read reviews first as I wouldn’t have booked with them if I had. Arrived at Adelaide airport and called for the shuttle bus and was told that the last one had left, they were about to close and I wouldn’t be able to collect the car until the next day!? WTF Nowhere during the booking process did I see that you need to be at the shuttle LATEST 5:30pm If that happens go to, I suggest going to the Budget rentals office at the airport. They had the best price and vehicles compared to Avis and Hertz (who wanted $500+$100 bond for 3 days small car rental) 😳

The car was not similar to the one we asked to. The cat was very duty inside. The battery wasn’t charged. There was no information I. The car in how to use it and the staff weren’t able to give us much information other then how to start it. It was. It worth the money.

I booked and paid for an Audi Q5 and was given a RAV4 after payment. Appears problem is with Expedia. As kayak booking says Q5. Europcar say they had no record of the Q5 and instead allocated a RAV4. Even the Europcar attendant thought it was a very expensive price for a RAV4.

Hire amount has been booked of twice after the car has been given back and finale invoice has been received. There have been no issues reported from hertz to me after drop off inspection. The customer service said only I have to be patient but did not explain why this happens.
