Italo was amazing. I had flight delays and there wasn’t WiFi on the plane so I couldn’t contact him. I stood him up on our meet up and he waited way longer than he should have and he could have cancelled the reservation. Instead, he brought the car to me the next morning. He saved my trip! All the rental cars were sold out and this was my first time using Turo. I never write reviews because I am rarely moved enough by an experience to feel it’s necessary. This time it is necessary. I am truly grateful for Italo and his help.

We rented a car from Doris for our vacation in Montreal. Even before arriving in Montreal, we had pleasant and helpful communication. The car was delivered and picked up on time. Communication was always friendly and efficient. If we ever need to rent a car in Montreal again, we would definitely rent from Doris again.

Gabriel was fantastic to work with, and we loooooved the car! We rented the car for 11 days and thoroughly enjoyed driving with the top down through the mountains. The car handles great, accelerates great, and the top is quick to pop up and down depending upon weather. We were able to easily fit a large checked bag (backseat), a carry-on, two backpacks, and groceries. Plus two adults. Gabriel’s car was much more fun than the average convertibles rented by traditional car rental agencies and an only fraction of the cost. Thank you, Gabriel!

Absolutely amazing experience! The car was spotless, extremely comfortable, and drove beautifully. It’s a 2026 model, so it has all the latest features and made the whole trip even more enjoyable. The host was incredibly kind, responsive, accommodating, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. Everything went smoothly, and I couldn’t have asked for a better rental experience. I would definitely rent from her again and highly recommend her to anyone!

Ali was an amazing host from start to finish. The 2026 Hyundai Elantra was spotless, very comfortable, and surprisingly fuel-efficient. The car drove perfectly and made getting around Montreal easy and enjoyable. What really stood out was Ali’s communication. He replied quickly every time, made the pickup and return process simple, and was always ready to help with anything I needed. He even gave me useful tips about the city and had solutions for every question or situation that came up. This was one of the best rental experiences I’ve had. I’ll definitely be renting from Ali every time I visit Montreal. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a smooth, reliable, and stress-free rental experience. Thanks again, Ali!

Eric was a great host. Very nice car. Was flexible and accommodating on pick-up and drop off times/locations. Car did not have much gas at pick up which was no big deal. 3 minute stop at a gas station and off we went. Had USB-C and lightning cables ready to go in the car which was a nice touch. Would recommend Eric as a host and would rent from again without hesitation.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Ivan for an excellent long-term car rental experience. It was my first time renting a car for such a period, and everything went as smoothly and comfortably as possible. I rented the car for about three weeks. What stood out the most was that at the very beginning I made a mistake with the booking dates and arrived to pick up the car on the wrong day. Ivan immediately stepped in, contacted customer support himself, helped resolve the issue quickly, and made sure everything was corrected properly. Thanks to this, I was able to start my rental without any stress. Throughout the entire rental period, the car was in excellent condition — clean, well maintained, and very pleasant to drive. Overall, the service was at a very high level, everything was organized clearly and professionally. I can confidently recommend Ivan to anyone looking for a reliable and comfortable car rental experience. From me — 10 out of 10.

I would definitely rent it again!
