⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ **Excellent experience with Auto Drive Kalamata!** We rented a car from Auto Drive from September 9th to September 30th, and everything was absolutely perfect. The car was clean, reliable and exactly as agreed. The communication was friendly and professional, and both pick-up and return went very smoothly. There were no unexpected costs or surprises. We booked directly with Auto Drive, which was very easy and worked out really well. We were very happy with their service and would definitely rent from them again. **Highly recommended if you are looking for a reliable and honest car rental company in Kalamata!**
Really good. Nice price for good automatic car, they were there when we emerged from arrivals and there when we dropped off at the airport. Full insurance too, which I always think is a must. Good comms
I am very satisfied with the service. I needed a car in the resort town of Stoupa. Communication was seamless, and the staff were helpful and friendly. Everything went smoothly and without any issues. The car was delivered right to my apartment, and they came to pick it up later. The vehicle provided was high-quality and reliable, allowing us to explore the area around our holiday destination. I can highly recommend this service; for the price paid, I received exactly what I expected.
Perfect experience with new car. The employees were very nice and friendly. Cu next time.
I rented a car abroad for the first time in my life in a place where traveling without a vehicle is still difficult. Contrary to my worries, everything went smoothly. I was able to ask detailed questions via email regarding matters not clearly listed on the website. The price didn't increase during the few days we exchanged inquiries. Since full comprehensive insurance is mandatory, checking the car's condition wasn't very meaningful unless the vehicle broke down. I was also able to pick up the car near the port. The price was half that of other major rental car companies. The staff were friendly and relaxed. We were able to communicate via WhatsApp. It was a new Kia Picanto that was as easy to drive as a toy, and naturally, it supported Korean, so the navigation was easy to use. Thanks to that, I was able to drive over 300 kilometers in half a day and a half. I hope this place prospers, as it allowed me to reach places that would have been impossible without a car!
Excellent car rental company. Car was very clean and in excellent condition. It was at the airport when we arrived and they even took us to our apartment. Again on our departure they were there to meet us and take the car back. No problems whatsoever, lovely people and we intend to return next year so would not hesitate to rent a car from them again. Highly recommended and at a reasonable price. Thank you Jim and Allie 😊
Excellent they there at the airport waiting for us as we arrived, car outside ready to go . . When we finished our holiday we were met again for drop off, thanks so much highly recommend
Exceptional experience from start to finish. The staff were very flexible in pickup and drop off and were very friendly and hospitable and available to answer all our questions throughout the whole process. If you want a genuine and honest company to deal with you can’t go past Autodrive. Thank you for making our experience so positive. Harry and Connie (Australia).
We were completely satisfied with the service, the car, the organization and the team. I would recommend it to everyone with a clear heart.
Kosta was very helpful in getting me an automatic 7 person car for an extended period. Much appreciated! He went above and beyond.
Highly recommended! Communication was smooth and quick. Picking up and dropping off the car at Kalamata airport was easy and super fast. The contract was prepared and just needed to be signed. The fuel policy was full/full, the insurance terms were great (no excess, everything covered), there was no deposit, no mileage limit, and the overall price was very reasonable. We spent over three weeks exploring the Peloponnese with the car, and everything went perfectly. Thanks again, especially to Melpo.
Professionalism, service and very good cars! 🚗🔥 Well done, man, keep it up! 👏
Back for a second year. Good communication, quick and clear response to any questions we had before we arrived. Waiting outside arrivals hall at agreed time with a smile and a friendly welcome. 5 mins to complete paperwork at the car and we were away. Same on the way back, waiting for us outside departures. Quick check of the car and fuel level and we were done. Definitely would recommend, everything was great. 👍🏼
Fast, easy process, helpful, friendly team, new, reliable, clean car, pick-up and drop-off at the airport. Everything worked very well, very fair company. We will rent from them again, because we will definitely come back here. 🙂
Punctual, precise, car in good condition and clean. Very helpful and courteous. No tricks or forced sales of accessories or insurance. One of the best car rental companies I've ever had.
One of the best car rental experiences. Initially the phone communication was perfect, we communicated our needs for the vehicle we needed and we got exactly that, something I was worried about because I don't drive big cars. The girl who waited for us at the airport was very sweet and even helped us with various suggestions for the area as we had never been to Kalamata before. Wonderful people, excellent service and above all very good value for money. Thank you for everything
We got a brand new, automatic, nimble Kia Picanto, no credit card or deposit required. The price was also reasonable, they brought it to where we asked. You have to be careful with the driving style of the locals, but everything was perfect, the best rental company in Kalamata, I say this because I have reviewed almost all of their offers:)
We rented a car from autodrive and were very happy. The service was excellent and the car was impeccable and very reliable, we highly recommend it.
We had an amazing experience with AutoDrive kalamata. No hidden fees no deposit and no credit card required. Easy 5 stars.
Great experience all around! Brand new and spotless car, excellent service. Highly recommended!
Excellent customer service and variety of cars to cover your needs and great prices also!
We forgot to rent a car in time, they resolved our problem in just 30 minutes.
★★★★★ A very friendly and helpful team! The staff are always very courteous and readily available whenever you need anything. You feel truly well taken care of. Highly recommended!
I used their services this summer. Great price, perfect car, impeccable service, and punctuality. Plus, they're very nice guys, which doesn't hurt 😄. See you next time!
We rented a car for a week, with pick-up and drop-off directly at the airport, and we had a great experience. The service was reliable, transparent, and professional, with excellent value and prompt response to any questions. The car was new, clean, and in perfect condition, ideal for exploring Kalamata and its surroundings with complete peace of mind. The staff was very kind and helpful. One gesture we particularly appreciated: before returning the car, we accidentally met the rental company staff at a bar on their way to the airport to pick up our car. We followed them, and when we reached the toll booth, the attendant informed us that the toll had already been paid by the car in front of us, the rental company staff. These little touches make all the difference! A truly positive experience, highly recommended.
We had a great experience with them. No deposit, no long paperwork. They gave us the brand new last model of clean car at the adress and take it back at the airport, no long wait, no any high amount of card deposit. Highly recommended it to anyone needs rent a car in Kalamata.
10/10 service! Highly recommend! They did everything for us! Good cars, even better customer service. If you planning to visit Kalamata rent a car from them. You not gonna regret!❤️
Excellent experience, extremely easy to deal with and very helpful staff. Made our rental experience easy and straight forward. Very comfortable car that suited our needs. Highly recommend. A+
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Car Rental Experience – Highly Recommended! I had an excellent experience from start to finish. The entire rental process was smooth, professional and completely hassle-free. The staff were extremely friendly, helpful and welcoming, and everything was clearly explained when I collected the car. The vehicle was in excellent condition, spotlessly clean and very comfortable to drive. Pick-up and return were both quick and easy, with no hidden surprises or unnecessary complications. What really stood out was the level of customer service. Everyone I dealt with was courteous, accommodating and genuinely interested in making sure everything went smoothly. I wouldn’t hesitate to rent from them again and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, professional and trustworthy car rental company. Thank you for the fantastic service! 🚗🇬🇷
Had a great experience hiring a car from Autodrive Rentals Kalamata. The whole process was smooth and easy from start to finish. The car was clean, reliable and exactly as described. The staff were friendly, professional and very helpful, making everything completely stress free. I would definitely recommend Autodrive Rentals to anyone looking to hire a car in Kalamata. Great service, great car and great experience. I’ll definitely use them again next time I’m in Greece!
Fantastic last-minute rescue! I needed a car on short notice and sent out three requests in the evening - two were denied, but AutoDrive replied within 5 minutes. Mr. Poulakidas was quick and helpful over email and WhatsApp (perfect English). Instead of the standard port pickup, he offered to deliver the car to my hotel and announced the exact arrival time - a friendly lady was waiting with it 5 minutes early. The car was brand new (4,000 km) with GPS and AC, and handled the Taygetus mountain serpentines with ease. Drop-off was just as smooth - picked up right at the hotel. I even forgot my keychain in the car, and it was returned the very next day. Highly recommend!
I wanted to put more than 5 stars! Brand new car, no hidden extra costs. Super friendly and very communicative team, the best choice you can make! Pick up and return directly at the airport, super comfy!
We found Autodrive online and communication was excellent from the beginning. We got a clear description of what they provide and everything ran smoothly. We rented a car for two weeks and it was exactly what we asked for. Melpo, who received us, was very professional and helpful. A great thank you especially to her for meeting us in town to pick up the car. Strongly recommended!
Excellent experience renting a Kia Picanto. Competitive price with insurance, vehicle in good condition, and friendly staff. Easy and smooth communication via WhatsApp. Quick pick-up and drop-off at Kalamata airport, which is small. We'd do it again.
Got a Peugeot 2008 for a day, everything was perfect and smooth. The car was delivered right in time to our apartment.
