EGYPT CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

Great coordination

The rental company is very reliable.

The pickup location is in Hurghada city, and the car pickup process was completed quickly. The staff had a very good attitude.

At noon on Friday, there were hardly any customers at the counter. Providing a passport, credit card, and driver’s license was all it took, and we clarified the insurance and unlimited mileage terms before finalizing the contract smoothly (if no one is available at AVIS, you can also check with the Budget counter next door). For later issues, you can simply contact them via WhatsApp. When my tire was punctured, AVIS staff told me to visit a tire shop and then call them. They directly communicated with the shop over the phone, and the tire was repaired for just 100 EGP.

The experience was great. There was a minor issue during the return, but they didn't charge me for it.

I was misled into purchasing unlimited mileage, which was completely unnecessary. It was a total waste of $160.

Budget was mediocre with frequent dishonesty, but the customer service from Zuzuche was excellent—responsive and problem-solving, providing a strong sense of security for travel car rentals. Initially, the car was a very old Toyota, which broke down after two or three days. They eventually replaced it with a slightly newer car, which drove very well.

The car's condition is considered excellent compared to vehicles commonly seen on Egyptian roads. I added unlimited mileage, which turned out to be a great decision; otherwise, it would have been stressful. The rental company's response was very prompt. When I accidentally locked the key in the trunk near the pyramids, they kindly sent someone with a spare key. I'm very grateful.

I didn't get a Corolla, but they gave me a Renault. It was very new and clean.

Overall very satisfied. After returning the car, they specifically asked which terminal I was leaving from and dropped me off at the terminal entrance.

Good

I had an excellent car rental experience at Cairo Airport this time, and I chose the Nissan Sunny as my vehicle. Since my schedule was tight, I completed the booking on the platform before departure, with both pick-up and drop-off arranged at Cairo International Airport, which was very convenient. Upon arrival, the rental company staff were already waiting in the designated area. The process of handling the paperwork was efficient and straightforward, and all necessary documents and deposit procedures were communicated in advance, with no hidden charges, which made me feel very assured. As for the vehicle, the Nissan Sunny was in great condition. The exterior was clean and tidy with no visible scratches or damage, and the interior was well-maintained, with the seats and dashboard spotless. During the handover, the staff carefully inspected the vehicle and patiently explained basic details such as fuel level, brakes, and lights to ensure I was fully informed about the car's condition. The entire handover process took only about ten minutes, which was very efficient.

Highly efficient and great attitude.

Despite my poor English, I managed to pick up the car smoothly, taking quick photos as a record. Purchased unlimited mileage for about $16 per day. Driving in Cairo is absolutely a nightmare; on the day of returning the car, I accidentally took a wrong turn and had an intense experience. Honestly, I didn’t even feel like taking photos or videos. Both the driver and passenger were focused on the road and the navigation. On the trip to Marsa Matruh, I ended up with two speeding tickets.

The car was in good condition with slightly over 20,000 kilometers on it. In Egypt, especially in Cairo where traffic rules are chaotic, the engine performance and braking system are particularly important. The downside was the long wait time for picking up the car, which took almost 2 hours.

Very good. I saw people on Xiaohongshu mentioning various pitfalls, but in reality, the process was very professional. Just signing a contract, upgrading to unlimited mileage, and driving off. I bought QEEQ insurance instead of theirs. When returning the car, they barely inspected it and casually checked it before processing the return. They even dropped me off at T3. Within a week, I got my full deposit back. Additionally, this company doesn't require the 'three certificates as one'; a mainland passport combined with an international driver's license (IDP) suffices.
