9/28/24

Pros: The staff were wonderful and the rates great.

Cons: The pick up in the morning is very delayed (45 minutes) and the phonecall (expensive as it is international) is permanently on hold making us worry something was wrong. There was a further 45 minute wait to be assigned a car.

Pros: Nothing! They gave the impression of crooks smiling assassins.

9/26/24

Pros: Once we called from the airport for the shuttle , it didn’t take long to pick us up.

Cons: They should have had all the paperwork ready before we arrived, as to avoid the long wait. Only one check in person during popular arrival time.

United States of America (USA)
Seat Arona
9/23/24

Cons: When we arrived, the 3rd party company you contracted with tried to charge us for "staying late" for our pickup and then aggressively pushed for us to purchase extra insurance that we knew we did not need. We were then rushed out of their parking lot while still trying to figure out how to operate the vehicle.

United Kingdom
Volkswagen Polo
9/20/24

Pros: Good communication (called ahead on the day of pickup with instructions, responsive to questions via WhatsApp) and a transparent process (car examined together with same agent at pick-up and drop-off, mechanism for cancelling deposit payment explained in detail).

Cons: Deposit is higher than other local agencies (€2000 + €120 fuel deposit). But, otherwise significantly cheaper than the competition.

Pros: i rented a car and returned it and upon returning it they said there was a scratch on the passenger side mirror. i went back to the car and had a wet napkin and it wiped off clean as new but they said it was damaged when i returned it and even though it came off it was still damaged upon return. and said i should have bought insurance. what a terrible thing to experience

9/12/24

Pros: efficiency at drop off

Cons: Tires dont have much profile - safety risk here and the employee just said "its normal, its ok". Car wasnt full and employee told us the needle doesnt go all the way up - i filled up the car and it does go fully up. At least no drama at drop off.

8/8/24

Pros: Despite the negative reviews, we took a risk on way2azores and had no real problems. The car was very simple and had many small issues as it was an older model, however it drove well and we had no problem with it. Way2Azores was a good price

Cons: I felt as though if any small thing had gone wrong with the car, it would have lost me my whole deposit (and the car is so old and beat up that I was surprised that it had no issues!!). The rental agents really search the car for any tiny scratch or issue. It was definitely the most thorough inspection of a car I returned that I’ve ever seen

United Kingdom
Citroen C3
8/8/24

Pros: Great car but pushed to buy the insurance at 25 euros/day as required to provide a 2000 pounds deposit from a credit card (debit card non accepted) otherwise.

Cons: Insurance policy is a tourist trap

Pros: Ottima auto, buon servizio generale

7/14/24

Pros: They are thief’s and liars. They give you broken cars and just don’t care. Don’t rent with Way2Azores.

Cons: Worst car rental ever. Don’t rent there!!!!! We arrived with our 4 young kids at Way 2Azores car rental to pick up our “little” 7 passengers car (Opel Zafira). They told us at it burned and that they could only give us a little bus ( way too big to drive downtown Ponte Delgada). I explain to the lady that we rented an airbnb with inside garage and that I didn’t think it would fit. She insisted that we would have any problems with parking. So we left with the bus…LOT of PROBLEMS with this car.

United States of America (USA)
Fiat Panda
7/13/24

Pros: Everyone very friendly and efficient. Discover Cars is great on customer service, and we would use Way2Azores again.

Cons: We got the one car that didn't have the fuel sticker on the gas tank cover, so we weren't sure what kind of gas to use. For gas engine, use the green pumps -- which, in the US, are diesel. In the Azores, green is gasoline. Would have been good to know that in advance. Also, it would be helpful to have a sheet of paper that tells what the traffic signs mean. That was also new to a first-time visitor.

United States of America (USA)
Volkswagen Polo
7/12/24

Cons: We got a flat tire and we could not change it ourselves because a key tool was missing. For this, we had to wait for the company to bring us the tool and they charged us 370€ for their trip out (if all the tools were with the spare tire we would have been able to change it ourselves instead of waiting for them in the little shoulder of a very busy road). The agents were rude when we pointed out that the missing tool was the company’s fault, and did not want to take responsibility for it.

Pros: car was pretty ok

Cons: there was a major problem with the obstacle detection that nearly caused an very severe accident. when mentioning that to the employee, not a single excuse or sign that it was a concern.

6/27/24

Pros: The staff were very professional and friendly. From the moment I arrived at the airport they came and picked us up within 10 minutes and very quick drop off when i returned the vehicle to make sure we didn’t miss our flight. I can certainly see that customer service is their top priority. Thank you all the guys there for making my trip to Sao Miguel a great one . I will certainly use and recommend Way2Azores Car Rental again 😊🙏

6/18/24

Pros: They were friendly and efficient.

Cons: The car pickup and drop off requires a shuttle van trip. It was not an issue but it’s not the most convenient. If this resulted in the cost savings it’s fair enough.

Canada
Citroen C3
6/14/24

Pros: Very quick and efficient with the pick up and drop off process.

Cons: The tires were almost bald. I asked for another vehicle and was told there were none. I was stranded on the other side of the island due to rain. It was not safe to drive in the mountains with the rain using bald tires. Damage on vehicles should be repaired if clients pay for the damage they incur.

6/9/24

Pros: The young men that picked us up and dropped us off were exceptional.

Cons: I was taken advantage of. They wouldn't use the credit card I reserved the car with. I didn't have another card on me. They wouldn't allow my partner to pay. But they allowed my wife to pay a couple of hundred euros MORE. I feel we were scammed. Also, be warned that the additional insurance requires you to call them in advance if there is any damage, if you don't, even though you paid for coverage, you will be required to pay. Another scam in my opinion. I have never had these experiences.

Canada
Citroen C3
6/8/24

Cons: I was told my insurance package was really poor and if something happen with the car I will need to pay a lot. I didn’t want to take chance and I have taken another insurance coverage with the agent. Now I know it wasn’t true. I paid for nothing

United States of America (USA)

6/6/24

Pros: The staff at the office were really fantastic - we had read all sorts of nightmare reviews about price gouging - the pickup and drop off process could not have been easier. The car was older 85,000km but everything worked including the Apple Car Play which was a lifesaver on the roads. I highly recommend

Cons: For the money we paid - I can honestly not complain about anything - we have paid many times more and not received anywhere near as good a service as Way2Azores provided

5/6/24

Pros: return process and shuttle were efficient. Vehicle was clean and functioned well.

Cons: Could not reach anyone to ask for airport pick up. Used WhatsApp and called numerous times and no answer. Extremely frustrating. The fact that this rental agency was offsite was not clearly identified when booking. The agent then proceeded to upsell insurance options and advised that a $3000 deposit was required up front when my contract clearly stated $1700. "oops, my bad" was his response. The vehicle itself barely fit our 4 suitcases when we had 5! Again, very frustrating and uncomfortable.

4/22/24

Pros: Competitive prices

Cons: They tried to upsell to their insurance which was 3x the cost. The car pick-up inspection was super stressed as they noted every fine scratch and stone chip, even on the underside of the door frame. Making me super nervous that any new fine scratch or stone chip on the lower chip guard would result in an extra charge.

3/4/24

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Would not recommend this company at all. Cowboys. The car was so old and couldn’t handle the hills on the island. The windscreen was so dirty inside that you couldn’t see out. And the fact that you need a high vis jacket if stopped by the police was not explained. You need to have a phone that can make calls in the Azores to call them once you arrive as well, as they are not waiting for you

12/9/23

Pros: Correct amount of time to pick up & drop off the car.

Cons: We had to pay 20€ for an early drop off (6am) when the office was already open and other clients were there to drop off their cars. That was outrageous after paying a lot more for the insurance and other fees.

11/11/23

Pros: Good price for a decent car.

Cons: The procedure to rent and return the car is a bit laborious, but in the end, worth it for the good price. From the airport, you have to call them, then wait for the shuttle to take you to the rental place. When you return the car, you do the reverse. It only takes maybe 30 to 45 min. So if your primary concern is ease and convenience you can probably pay more for that. If you want a better price and are willing to spend the time, Way2Azores is well worth it.

11/7/23

Pros: Reasonably quick pick up and drop off to the airport.

Cons: Attitude of the agents, absolutely unhelpful in dealing with questions and a "too good to be doing this" approach. They did not provide a car with AC at first (despite clearly shown on the voucher) and were very unpleasant when this was pointed out. Took them 3 tries to find one - trying to get rid of us ASAP. At the end, we settled for a smaller, albeit automatic transmission car - but as far from good service and product as can be.

11/2/23

Pros: Agent was great

Cons: Pick up was unclear and time consuming. Phone number provided was incorrect. MUST use a phone number on WhatsApp so we can call using airport Wi-Fi. We had to trigger roaming to make one call and we had to look up the correct phone number. Pick up information should be as clear and easy as possible since we arrive from a long trip.

9/14/23

Cons: 1) Down payment of $1600 euro, proved very difficult since credit card for designated driver had issues and we couldn't use another credit card under my name. We almost walked away, it took 15min to contact credit card company in Canada at 3am (7am Azores time). 2) The advertisement for car rental stated they were located at the airport terminal, when in fact you needed a shuttle, that was mis-leading advertising. 3) we had to ask a few people where to find way2azores rental desk.

Pros: Super friendly driver for the airport transfers!

Cons: Car had over 100,000 km - which is maybe the norm in the Azores, but felt more like a used car than I’m used to for rentals.

United States of America (USA)

9/10/23

Cons: We were forced to get an insurance because we didn't have a credit card covering the deposit, only a debit card that they don't accept. I realized later that I could had had my wife as a second driver and uss her credit card for the deposit (the card for the deposit and the driver name need to match). That's what they told us to do on the next island, but these people didn't recommend anything and were really pushy to purchase their insurance. My card had his own insurance which cover the same.

Pros: The service was fine. Helpful staff.

Cons: Paying twice for insurance. No GPS, even though I was told there was one charging, I offered to pick it up later or charge in car. The pick up was not at airport as booking suggested, had to wait to be shuttled a few minutes away.

9/3/23

Pros: The car was fine and as requested, and the person who picked us up was friendly.

Cons: Communication was the worst I've ever experienced. When we had a problem with the car the roadside assistance number that we called didn't even answer, and Way2Azores staff didn't care at all. Weren't at drop off spot at specified time and we almost missed our flight but were still charged 20 euro for this...

Pros: Location not easy to find to return the car. Not enough staff.

Cons: Had to replace a tire for a charged 560 euros. Tire pressure warning on the moniitor, staff unable to remove. So we drove for 2 weeks not knowing what would happen. Was told by staff it was the make of the car.

United States of America (USA)
Volkswagen Polo
8/19/23

Pros: I was scammed and cheated by your company. Your agent hid crucial information from me and I was made to pay €190 for a flat tire. He misled me on purpose. I always buy full coverage on rental cars to cover all costs. Your agent didn’t disclose that option. He told me the €35 coverage only covered gasoline deposit. And so I picked the €25 coverage that didn’t cover the tires. I’m very disappointed with your company for doing this scam. I will dispute this €190 charge. You should return €160 to me

8/4/23

Pros: Rental agents were extremely helpful and made the check-in/out process very quick and efficient.

Cons: The van that picks you up at the airport should have a "Way2Azores" sign on the side. There are several rental vans that pick up at the same location and it can be confusing on which one to go to.

United States of America (USA)
Smart ForFour
8/2/23

Pros: The shuttle service and access to the rental place was easy and convenient.

Cons: I didn't like that I was asked to get another full rental coverage on top of the full rental coverage from DiscoverCars. Either DiscoverCars should rely on Way2Azores to offer rental insurance, or Way2Azores should not push for their insurance if there is already rental insurance on the reservation.

Toyota Yaris
7/20/23

Cons: Due to change in ny flight schedule which I notified you I arrived 3 hours before the schedule time that was 10:00 am. The rental angency charged me 35 euro for the early pick up which didn’t exceed the days that the car was rented for. I checked on your website and the rate is the same for the original schedule and the revised schedule. I am expecting to get this charge back as a refund. Thank you B.T.W the car was returned 2 hours before schedule. Do I get a refund for this.

Spain
Volkswagen Polo
6/28/23

Cons: The car service was really good and comfortable. But they promise us a ride to the town centre after we returned the car and at the moment they said that it was impossible. So we had to take a taxi that we didn't count with. We meet with another couple later that day and they told us that you guys gave them a ride the same day as we returned the car at the same moment that we were there. That's why the score is not higher.

Mexico
Volkswagen Polo
6/26/23

Pros: The staff is very friendly, polite and helpful. The car engine was in great condition, we went all around the island and only filled the gas tank once.

Cons: The lease agreement of the car was provided to me only after I returned the car, they offered more than once the full coverage insurance even though I said I had bought it through Discover cars, after two weeks I am still waiting on the deposit to be released from my credit card.

Portugal
Fiat Panda
6/14/23

Pros: Speedy pick up and dropp off

Pros: The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cons: More clear instructions on where meet the van to get to pick up location. Also, I didn’t have cell service so I had to find a stranger to call. Not having cell service, it was really hard to find the location to return. I suggest putting a clear map in the glove box of every car.

5/9/23

Pros: Good car.

Cons: The pick up place is mentioned as airport meet and greet. You actually need to call them upon arrival, get to the airport parking lot, wait for a car to pick you up. Once we were there we showed the papers, the confirmation of full insurance coverage by discovercars. They ask us for a credit card for a deposit as the insurance was external. I don’t have a credit card. They told us we can get a refund from DiscoverCars but we actually can’t after pick up.

Fiat Panda
3/11/23

Pros: Nice clean car...Fiat panda hybrid. Great for maneuvering up and down the hills and valleys. 1400km and 2 tanks of gas. Pretty good I think considering the difficult driving. Getting the vehicle should have been easy....a quick phone call to pick us up as they are not directly in the airport, however, the seem to go under numerous names so we missed the driver picking people up several times. The main company name would be Way2Azores. Drop off at airport after return good. Would recommend

Cons: Pick up needs to be improved. Missed a couple of vans taking us to site as the main name seems to be Rent2Azores, however, we booked under Discover cars and we were dropped off at Ace car rental. Needed to make a couple of calls to sort out. Would use again.

1/5/23

Pros: Very kind customer service!

Cons: Rental process was VERY misleading on DiscoverCars! I specifically choose to have a rental pick up & and drop off at the airport - but this was not the case. We had to call the rental company - which we COULD NOT do with foreign phones. Finally, a stranger at the airport help us call and the rental company said they would come pick us up and drive us to our car. The whole issue took 2 hrs, so we missed check in at the hotel & any chance to eat dinner. I don't think Way2Azores is to blame.

Pros: Friendly and thorough staff and the car was very clean when received.

Cons: GPS unit was absolutely useless. It sent me on a route down one-way streets in the wrong direction and thought that all overpasses and bridges were on the same level as the main highway. Distance ETAs for exits were incorrect and it told me to turn on roads that did not exist.

Pros: Great team but better signage needed for location of pickup.

Cons: Have to pay for airport transport although it states they are at the airport, which they are not.
