Customer Reviews

Super nice service, nice cars, very good fees, and easy to use app. The verification process for my docs was also super clear and quick.

We were very lucky to rely on Driveyou for our roadtrip in Ireland. Not having a credit card, which is necessary for most of the hiring companies, Driveyou represents a valid alternative for those who wish to move around the island. They made out trip possibile and unforgettable. The service was excellent and affordable, the staff (especially Ciaran) was kind, efficient and always available for support, both via email and on the phone. We definitely recommend it. Had we ever go back to Ireland, we'd contact this agency again, with no doubt and complete trust.

I used Driveyou while in Ireland visiting, and reserved a Hyundai i20 for a 4 day roadtrip down to Cork and Kerry. I highly recommend this company. Great support and communication via email and very competitive costing. I don't have a credit card and going via traditional car hire companies would not have worked out for me, and I am very glad I found Driveyou while researching alternative options. Thanks. Will be using again and highly recommend their service!
