I´ve rented with Discover Cars about 3…
I´ve rented with Discover Cars about 3 times now. I could always find better prices than comparing to Rental Cars, Decolar-Brasil, Kayak and others. The total price with insurance is always a good choice to get, but I never had to use it myself, so I can´t say anything about it. Street Rent a Car is partner with MaxxAutos in Croatia. They offer cars from KIA that are brand new. The staff was really kind and useful. The fact you have to wait a litte longer to get the car, since the store is not in the airport and you need to wait to be picked up. But it was a great value for money. And very helpful staff. We rode about 1900 km, starting in Zagreb and visting the Istria Peninsula (Roving, Pula, Porec, Novigrad), then the Dalmatian Coast with ZADAR, SPLIT and Dubrovnik. What an amazing country! Roads are great with many tunnels, bridges and great condition lanes. The toll is really easy to use, but it could improve electronic payments for rental cars (with tags in the screen of the car, for example)
