Of course, Beijing is not for everyone, but I came to my friends in the suburbs and they recommended to rent a car, as it was cheap, fast and safe. I found the suitable option via Booking Car. I booked the car and paid for it in a matter of minutes. I satisfied with the operation speed of the site.

The options that you are offered and the options that you find by yourself are always different. Recently I've been looking for options to go on vacation. I've decided to go to the agency (I've had no time at all). But when they've offered to reserve a car that would cost as a third part of that car for a week, I've been shocked. I've gone to the popular site and not only found, but also rented the required car at the ridiculous price.

Our big company went on the roads of Italy. The final goal was Venice. We rented a minivan and did not regret it. The conditions were great, and the rental cost was ridiculous as we chipped in together. We've selected a car here, since this site gives the opportunity to find a car that can be returned not in the country where it was received. We liked everything very much. There is easy navigation and simple search filter on the site. It's impossible to get confused.

I have been using this aggregator for a long time when searching for a car to travel around different countries. I know that the sample of options is always the largest, and there is no fees. I've compared it with the prices at the destination place for many times. In general, it helps to do everything in advance in a couple of minutes.

Some time ago, I've analyzed the main tourist aggregators for car rental around the world. After numerous tests and comparisons, I can say that this site works faster than others, albeit not much, has the largest base for analysis and provides maximum options. The absence of redirection to other sites is an undoubted disadvantage in terms of security, as it excludes the possibility of phishing redirection.
