Highly recommended by our customers

Fair support
We recently booked a car through DiscoverCars.com, and although we ran into an issue at pickup — for safety reasons, the person with the credit card wasn’t the one driving, so the card wasn’t in the main driver’s name, which didn’t meet the rental company’s requirements — the team at DiscoverCars handled the situation very fairly. Even though this was clearly stated in the rental conditions, and we had to purchase extra coverage on the spot, Olga from customer support took the time to understand our case and kindly offered a partial refund as a goodwill gesture. We’re incredibly grateful for Olga’s help and the generosity of the DiscoverCars.com team. It’s rare to come across such thoughtful and customer-focused service.
