I had nothing but electrical problems with vehicle. Sixt asked me to take car to mechanics. Key Fob would not work and we were locked out of our car and had to take a taxi home. Next day road side assistance could not get into the car because doors were locked so locksmith had to be called and I had to pay for taxi and locksmith. Called sixt many many times in 3 days, was told would be getting a significant refund and they only paid for 3 days rental. Worst experience ever. Customer Service was the worst, made promises they didn’t keep and we even upgraded to a bigger vehicle and paid in total $3500 Canadian dollars for 6 weeks and had nothing but issues. I would rate them a negative 20.

The staff was exceptional. Professional, courteous, and helpful. My only suggestion involves the vehicle. On several occasions, a warning bell would sound with no indication why. Once it was because one of the rear doors wasn't closed. I'm not sure anything can be done about that but it is worth sharing.

Pleased with Avance car rental experience. Pick up and drop off at Athens airport was straightforward. We received a low mileage Renault Cleo which performed well. Big enough to haul 3 adults and carry ons, yet small enough to navigate the roads and parking in Greece. Prices this year in Greece seem high everywhere, yet felt we received fair value from the pricing we received from Kayak/Avance. Would use them again.

The pick up at Athens airport was long and frustrating. There were people shopping for cars like a menu at a restaurant while client like us had already finished and paid online and just waiting for the key. There should be a separate line for those that had their reservation confirmed and paid. Drop off was easy. Plus the agent tried to sell us an upgrade version once he knew where we are staying. He could have been more discrete and less obvious in his approach!

Very good value. Car in great shape (Citroen C3). Friendly, knowledgeable staff once we finally found ‘em. Off site pickup instructions and true name of car rental company (CarWiz) were buried on the last (7th!) page of Rental confirmation from Kayak/Expedia. Early return (before 8am) cost €60, literally 1/2 the cost of our 12 day rental.

Hi, for several years I was renting a car from Europecar and all went wey, and i was very satisfied. This time i felt that i was treated in a dis-honest way. I was supposed to get a Full-to-Full tank and instead i got a less than 3/8 tank. It caused me an over expanse of 25 euros. The car is not comfortable and impossible to drive constantly for more than 1 hour. I returned the car 2 days ago and my back and leg still hurt and in pain. I doubt if next time I’ll rent a car from Europecar

“Bad experience: Had to wait 4 hours, from 8am to moon to pickup the car, even though they had the car available because the reservation with Expedia was made for 12pm/ noon and they can’t make changes to the reservation because supposedly was a third party agreement. The car was returned at 8am. Dose not make sense!!!!

Kayak wrote in the standardized response that an e-mail would come from Europcar as confirmation, but that did not occur. The processor used by Kayak (not Europcar) wrote in a standardized response that the rental was confirmed. The Europcar website was not available several times when it was checked. At arrival, Europcar had the confirmation number Kayak/Kayak's processor had provided and the rental experience was excellent.
