Review of Stefan about our office at Thessaloniki Airport Powered by Google™

I checked the reviews here after I booked a rental car with them, which made me doubt that decision. I am happy that I didn't cancel it, because everything went very smoothly and we were more then happy with them. We were picked up from the airport by a shuttle bus driver who brought us to the rent-a-car building where we were welcomed by two desk clerks, one of which took my info, asked me ONCE if I wanted an additional insurance, which I kindly declined and she gave me the key to a brand new Peugeot 3008 without a single scratch on it. All of them were friendly and accommodating and spoke very good English. We waited around 20 minutes to return the car, as there were a lot of us customers at the same time, but the check itself was very quick and I received the refund of the deposit and the reservation for the gas money the same day. 5/5, would definitely recommend and use their service again

I can not recommend these highly enough from picking us up to getting the key was hassle free the staff were great, they lost the key but it was found. They didn't try to sell me any extras I had no massive deposit I took out the full cover insurance and trust me it's fully covered... I had to pay €160 for a fuel deposit (standard practice anywhere In the world) and tolls their are a lot of toll roads in Portugal so I was happy this was one thing I didn't have to worry about... love this hire company highly recommended

One of the best experience we had with car renal across Europe. The car itself - brand new Peugeot 308 - was excellent and exceeded our expectations. We did the paperwork in advance and took the full coverage, which made all interaction with the office fast and flawless. At pick up we were told there are no navigators available (we've ordered one in advance and were reimbursed the full amount), but apparently the car was already equipped with excellent navigation system that we were using during our trip! Overall, highly recommend!

It was as easy as one could imagine renting a car. Booked a car via centauro website with everything included in the price. By arrival got transferred to the renting location, in 5 minutes after that got a car. Returning the car was even faster. Got money reserved for the gas the next day. Smooth, easy and fun with a sense of humour from employees😀
