Attracting around 10 million visitors per year, the Spanish Island of Tenerife is one of Europes main holiday hotspots. This is no wonder, as it contains some of the best beaches in Europe, with white sand and pristine clear waters, Tenerife has over 167 miles of coast for you to enjoy. Along with its nature, the island is home to a world renowned club and party scene. Islands are always great for a car hire, due to their size it is easy to get around and explore by car. Our car hire reviews in Tenerife are written by previous customers and are provided to give you an insight into their rental experience.
Auto Europe has partnered with numerous local, national and international car hire suppliers to provide you with great rental quotations. Tenerife is serviced by two main airports, both of which are great for a car hire pick-up - South Tenerife Airport and North Tenerife Airport.

" I will admit was above my expectations because I saw so many bad reviews. Made me stressed regarding my deposit because car had few scratches and wasnt sure all was properly documented. "
" All was ok except the fact that i got a dirty car with half tank and in the paperwork they told me is clean and full tank so i need it to do full tank because i didnt want to lose money from deposit. Is my fault i trusted them. Car had a major pb with gearbox was smelling really bad after driving 20 minutes . "

" Goldcar we're ok however your company should be much more up front on the amount of security deposit Goldcar took from my credit card. I had over £1000 taken from my credit card at the beginning of my holiday. Lucky for me I had the means to accommodate this, however this could have easily been my spending money for a weeks holiday and I could have been left with nothing. I would not book again with your company due to a lack of clarity on amounts. I will book direct as I usually do. Lesson learnt! "

" Terrible experience, hired over 30+ cars before and I have never had a vehicle in such a bad state. There is no information on where to pick the car up once you get out of the airport. As it's not in the same location as the rest of the hire companies. I guess that's what makes them cheaper as it seems to be more of a meet and greet, although there wasn't much greeting going on as we had to hang around for 20 minutes before even speaking to anyone as nobody was around. Then once I filled in the paperwork, we had to hang around for over an hour to get the car. Not a good start to a holiday. "
" Information should be provided. For example, this car hire is not in the car hire location. It's in a public car park away from the car hire car park. It needs to be returned to the same location and key dropped into the back of a van. It's hard to find. There is no signage other than a red van with a poster in the windscreen. The vehicle we got was in such a terrible condition. Falling apart, bumper hanging off, dents in every single panel, scratches, we had to wait over an hour to wait for them to drop it to us, when they arrived, it had 3/4 of a tank of fuel, all the seats were wet and was full of sand. Probably the worst condition of a hire car I have ever had. I had to wait to leave feedback as I was unsure whether I'd get my deposit back. Luckily I filmed the entire car before driving off and showed every piece of damage on the van. "

He said to bring back empty at saving of 60 euros, but we still had 130km of fuel and tank capacity was 35L so petrol at 1.15 that works out to 40 euros.

" On picking the vehicle up, we where told it was in bay 44 ... however on arriving at bay 44, it was empty. So we then had to go and find an employee to find us the said vehicle. On picking it up .... the vehicle was literally filthy and clearly it had not been cleaned, both inside and outside. In the vehicle, we found several small change coins and numerous litter. The seats were also quite stained. I feel the reason that it was not in the correct bay, is because it was awaiting to be cleaned. Apart from the offy start things were okay! "

The car was in very poor condition and the assistant would not report additional damage that I identified at collection point. She was very rude and unhelpful. When I said I wanted the additional identified damage reported on the collection form she said she could not do that. She also tried to upsell additional insurance for an extra €300 which I did not want as I had paid for insurance at time of booking. I said I wanted to cancel the booking and she agreed, but as yet I have had no refund. I will be progressing this further should I not receive a full refund as I did not take the car offered. "

" I have no problem with Auto Europe, just the policy of OK mobility.i "
" Although the counter staff were very efficient, the issue was more about company policy than the staff applying it. They were telling customers upon arrival that there was hardly any insurance cover on the vehicle and that excess cover only (which I had ) had) was insufficient. Your voucher states what cover is offered quite clearly , injuries liability, collision damage, theft etc subject to excess of approx E1,350. I regarded your voucher as being the true reflection of cover and did not take out any further cover which ran from E150 to E350 depending on the level of cover was taken out through them. I think you need to investigate this issue with them as I think they are making your clients take out more cover than is strictly necessary. "

It would be great to have a standardised list outlining all possible coverage options and what is actually included in my car hire. "

" Very disappointed with dishonesty on the Auto-Europe site. We hired a car from Tenerife South, carefully selected for in-terminal pickup with Turisprime. On arrival, we were directed to a distant bus stop and had a 20-minute wait for a courtesy bus, with a further 20-minute drive through heavy traffic to a depot. We missed lunch at our hotel as a result. The rental deal was very good value, but the dishonesty of Auto-Europe is unforgiveable. "
" We had a very good experience with Turisprime in Tenerife. Their depot is remote and not in-terminal as promoted on Auto Europe, and we had a 20-minute wait for their bus. They are part of the Avis Budget franchise in Tenerife South. Overall experience was very good, we received the car model advertised, it had 60K kms and several scratches but it was in good shape. The counter experience on return was prompt and efficient - apart from another 20 min wait for the bus back to the terminal. Great value for money. "

" The Auto Europe booking system worked well and the price reasonable. Your website said that the Avis location is on airport and that was one reason for choosing Avis. It is actually a few miles away and we needed to go by bus. The bus stop was also a very long walk away from the terminal and hard to find. The bus was pretty much full by the time we got there so those that got off the bus last had a very long wait to get their car. Luckily we were able to get out of the bus quickly otherwise there would have been a 40-60 minute or so wait. I really think that details such as this are very important so PLEASE get it right on your website. "
" Avis were great but the car was a DS3 rather than the VW we were expecting so it was very low and hard to get in and out.

Ended up with 2 adults in back with suitcases on knees. If I had wanted a smaller car, I could have ordered one for less money. Also, they email a contract to you at the desk, to show any damage that they are aware of on the car.

But I rang them next day as we were delayed 21.30 and they said we could pick it up. When we went to pick it up they said they would give us an automatic but then said it would 60euros more then went into taking out insurance I told them that I had taken out insurance in the UK but they just pushed there insurance saying if a palm tree brushed the car it could scratch it and all other things until I didn't want the car I was frightened to get in it It would be 150 euros for any scratch and that they would inspect it rigorously and it could take 30 minutes talk about scare tactics do no it was an asv experience and I would mog go with them of you again because I have used Auto Europe many times at the airport and highly satisfied which I thought I was doing the same again not going with Gobycar £166 euros if we didn't fuel it to full "

" On positive notes when asking counter staff allowed for vehicle to be picked up slightly earlier than agreed. Vehicle parked by terminal as advertised. Voucher accepted immediately with no problem. Drop off was pleasant although required to go and find staff member. Negatives: counter staff tried selling further insurance even though I advised I bought extra cover with auto Europe. Staff member continued to insist on own company insurance and made several attempts to concern that in event of damage I would be liable. Vehicle fiat 500 had multiple areas of damage with some areas not documented required to delay leaving car park until all areas of damage accounted for.

The counter staff then informed me I had to take out basic insurance at an extra cost to be allowed to drive the car even thought the hire agreement states CDW was included. They said they would e mail me the contract but it never arrived. When I returned the car after inspection the contract arrived by e mail. When I questioned the extra 120eu the staff said if I had brought it to their attention on the first day they could have done something. He told me to contact OK Mobility customer service which I have done but no reply yet. They used the insurance trick to sell unwanted insurance.

" Although the booking was made through Auto Europe, the communication with Goby Car was poor. I was not impressed that the car we had requested was not available, and nor would it have been as they did not have that model, despite being advertised on the Auto Europe website. Plus just checking your rates, I see we were charged nearly £100 more than the current rate. "
" The car we booked wasn't available, and we had paid for a premium car, a BMW and was offered a Mini. Not the same. We were then offered a BMW X1, but was then told it was another 80 Euros to upgrade. Not happy. There was no or little help with the controls and instructions about the car. It was set up in German, and it took two people plus a google to find how to change it to another language. There was no instruction how to set the air con, how to turn the lights on or how to operate the SAT NAV. This is a new design which had screen controls, not buttons to turn things on and off. Furthermore, 1 hour after we had left, we had a warning message to say we needed to fill up with Adblue immediately. When I eventually got through to the office, they told me to bring the car back. I was 1 hour away. Not likely. I said I would get some Adblue and they will have to reimburse me on return. The car should have been checked and topped up before it was offered for rental.

" I would never recommend autoeurope as long as you continue to host Keddy/ Europcar on your site. I am going to try my best to alert any potential customers to this sham of a car hire company. By the way Trustpilot, although not perfect, gives a more balanced view of Keddy than your or any other host site. Take my comments seriously? We,ll see if anyone from your company gets back to me that is if you even read this . "
" Keddy/Europcar are a disgrace. Devious tactics design to extract as much as possible from customers. I was charged for an existing scratch due to the fact that according to staff at Europcar right in their world is left! I saw the existing scratch when I picked the car up and it was noted that it was on the rear of the right hand bumper but when I returned the car the surly inspection agent told me that their version of the right of the vehicle actually meant left of the vehicle. Subsequently I was charged 127 Euros for existing damage. I don't why I,m bothering writing this it's not as if your company are going to do anything about this joke of a company. Never again with Keddy/Europcar and never again with autoeurope as you are enabling this bunch of con merchants by hosting them. "

Checkin was very quick and efficient, everything explained and the VCR was very accurate but I took pics and a vid just in case. Car was a quality item probably c1 yr old and with minor marks but nothing important and was completely full of fuel as promised. On return the car was checked (I did another vid to make sure no naughties) and agreed no damage and we were taken straight back to the airport.

" As requested by the counter staff we completed what I thought was a sensible quality check. We were given a list of damagers. On returning the vehicle the rep checked the car and highlighted a crack in one of the tail lights. The crack was approximately 3 cms long and hair thin to the point that at first neither of us could see it. As I could not prove that it was there when we accepted the car I had to pay 552 Euros. The car spent most of the time in an under ground car park. I am convinced that it was because I requested evidence that the tail light had been replaced that it appears it was. The fact that this crack was found is amazing and leave me wondering? The Insurance policy we took out will reimburse us. "

" no one at car park when collecting car. Paperwork said fuel 8/8, was actually less than 7/8. Mileage on paperwork was 8800km, was actually 30368km. some scuffs on bodywork and wheels, paperwork showed clean. Took video of damage when collected. Sent e-mail to Goldcar, they acknowledged e-mail, but had no response over 2 weeks later and now home. Filed car up on return so had put in petrol not used as did not want the hassle of trying to prove was correct at drop off, especially in no one there again, so cost more than should. No check when was returned by agent, so no issue with previous scuffs so next person to get the car will have same issue. "

Fortunately I took photos and got staff to record it, but even then when I returned the car they tried to claim it was new damage!! I quickly won that argument, but they then highlighted some very minor damage to paintwork above the front light. I hadn't seen this before but it appeared to me to be covered by the video I had taken initially. They disputed this as the video wasn't 100% clear. I refused to pay but they charged me an EXTORTIONATE £132 without my consent. Even IF, and it's a big IF, I had caused the damage, it could have been repaired for £10 - 20 easily. "

I found out that we were actually using a company called gobycar. We waited 10 mins for a representative to turn up. It was then a 10 minute drive and then a 20 minute wait to be spoken to about our car. The car itself was meant to be a 1.8 litre, but it definitely was not and was severely under powered. Also the cars on board computer had no navigation available, as this was a new car I'm almost certain it would not be an optional extra. For a car hire that mainly hires out cars to tourists who obviously don't know the roads this was very surprising. Otherwise the car was in great condition. None of the staff inspected the car before our first departure, they said that if we found any damage to film it and let them know. It was dark and raining, so the films we made didn't show any of the damage we found. "

" The experience with Auto Europe has been terrible. I emailed your team to notify them of a delay in our flight, this was not relayed to Gobycar. Your failure to communicate meant we incurred additional costs our side. Unhelpful staff on the phones made a disappointing situation more frustrating as they tried to place the blame on our side rather than providing guidance. We should be refunded for the day's car hire we missed due to this error in communication. "

In fairness, Top Car did respond quickly and positively assuring me that my photos would be taken into account and I would not be charged for any issues already on the car. At the resorts, I noticed lots of Top Car rentals and none appeared to be in as bad a condition as my car which was curious. Anyway, to re-emphasise, the staff were great, administration positive but it did leave me questioning whether I would recommend them. "

" I've had very good service over the years from Auto Europe so I trust your company. The local firm in Tenerife felt dodgy. Old car and the feeling of them trying to rip me off. How will your industry rid yourselves if this? "
" This service was named Hertz but operated by a local firm. The car was a little beaten up. 28000km and many many bumps and scratches. I took about 15 pictures myself before leaving including several which were agreed by the Hertz assistant. The contract I made with Auto Europe was for full cover of the car but the counter person tried VERY VERY hard to sell further insurance. This is part of the stress we have to take on to rent a car. Surely the companies can agree not to behave this way. Due to not taking their insurance (which I believed I had paid for already) I had a large deposit put on my charge card, followed by the stress of waiting for that deposit return - would they inspect this bashed up car and find some further scratch in order to charge me, then rent the car out again. This is how it feels as a car renter. I expected a Hertz car to be quite new and in good condition. Therefore this local firm failed. Full stop. The return process - the guy looked around the car and asked me to sign a blank document. I asked what it said, I might have been signing anything. Perhaps this was a language problem. If I rent a car in Uk or USA I get a clean, unmarked, very new car. Often get an upgrade. Some places you just get treated badly as a renter. In the end it was ok but the rental industry needs to get its act together. "

" While I have no direct issue with Auto Europe, this is the second time I have rented via AE and had poor treatment and been ripped off by car hire companies. My previous rental with Hertz cost me several hundred Euros and untold stress - I wasn't even reimbursed for a period that I did not have the vehicle as it had broken down. AE did get me a small refund but nowhere near the level of my loss. Hertz didn't even want to listen. In conclusion I have on the whole been satisfied with AE but 2 car rental companies they have paired me with have brought 2 very poor outcomes in terms of being ripped off, one time a significant amount and another time in what I would describe as a sneaky manner. This makes me hesitant about using AE again due to these bad memories. "
" Despite the fuel gauge indicating full when I left the car it appears that I have been charged €59 for fuel. Admittedly the car would not have been 100% full on drop off, but similarly I have no way of knowing it was 100% full on pick up - I can only go with what the fuel gauge says, as can interrent. I used the drop and go service which in hindsight was an error as I was not present to confirm with the rental company the full fuel gauge.

" Overall we have found Auto-Europe a good company to book through as they provide a good of information about the suppliers and the voucher clearly states what is and isn't included. We did not need to use their customer support. Prices are reasonable but although we often book using Quidco we have never yet received any cashback over the last few years. "
" The instructions for getting the shuttle bus to the car hire centre were totally inadequate. We were walking up and down looking for the stop for some time. We were told a stop number to go to but there was no other written information and the bus doesn't always stop there so it was unneccesarily stressful. A better quality map for finding the car hire centre to return the car would have been appreciated as the print was tiny and written directions unclear. On the plus side pick-up and drop-off were very efficient. "

" It was easy to select the hire car via the website. I have no idea how easy it would have been to claim damage excess refund from auto Europe if I had needed to. This was a concern during the rental. "
" It took about 30 minutes to go through the process of renting the car because the payment system was not working. I was pressured to take damage insurance direct with sixt, which I declined. When I returned the car there was no one there to sign any form to state I had returned the car without any damage. If someone marked the car after I dropped it off I have no doubt sixt will try to force me to pay for it. I have nothing to say they agree I returned the car in acceptable condition. The car they provided was brand new which was very good. "

" Tenerife South Airport. It may have been the end of the season or indeed the beginning but I didn't expect to receive a vehicle from a company like Hertz in such a poor condition. I did, of course, complain and was offered another vehicle immediately. However, the thought that a car with an extremely bad scratch down the side and with other dinks and scratches very apparent, was offered to a customer should be very worrying for you. I suspect it was because the booking came through a discount rental service. Still not a good advert for them or you. "

" I would appreciate if AutoEurope can assist me in getting a refund & compensation from Interrent, as I had to pay the airport surcharge fee and the 1000 euro deposit for CDW & TP excess. I did receive my full deposit back after the rental, but the point is that I should not have been asked to pay for it in the first place. "
" Your records of my rental will prove that I paid for a zero excess rental package, with airport surcharge included in the rate. At Interrent's airport rental counter, I was made to pay a 4 euro airport surcharge, and a 1000 euro deposit (since I declined to buy full coverage) to cover CDW and TP excess. My Autoeurope voucher clearly said airport surcharge fee was included in the rental fee, and I had a zero excess rate - the customer service agent at the desk (Yolanda) completely refused to acknowledge the voucher and said her system did not show that I had a zero excess package & that I had to pay airport surcharge fee at the airport regardless of what I had paid to AutoEurope.

" Give people the option of full damage waivers and all other costs up front when booking on line, so that we can make an informed decision. "
" The issue of collision damage waivers and fuel charges should be much more transparent. When you book online you should be offered the full waiver first along with all the charges. These charges seem excessive anyway. As a customer I want peace of mind knowing that in the unfortunate event of an accident there is nothing more to pay, yet I was not offered this. Presumably because I had already purchased collision damage waiver when booking the car on line. This actually meant that 900 euros was levied against my credit card and that's what I would have had to pay in the event of an accident. I also had to tell you the hotel and resort I was staying in. An unscrupulous person could in theory locate my hire car and deliberately damage it to keep the 900 euros. This left me feeling vulnerable. There were 5 families queueing to hire cars from internet, when I arrived. It too about an hour to get my car as only one member of staff was working. It was dark outside and yet I was asked to sketch on a picture all the damage on the car. I missed some scratches because I couldn't see in that light. This also led to anxiety that you would keep my 900 euros, even though I had looked after the vehicle and not caused any damage. "

I though did NOT do anything extra but had to stand and wait while others handiwork was reticked off!! There was a lot of paint marks that are easy to remove. But then there were dents and it had clearly been keyed down the offside panels. That sort of damage should have been repaired especially given the position of the islands!! I do not know whether it as me but the stop/start engine was a nightmare and I hate to think how often I had to restart it manually!! There was also a random A that flashed on the dash but no definition of this 'feature' is available online!! Let alone of the dashboard layout!! I must mark down due to the car and its condition!! I also managed about 35mpg in a car claiming nearly twice that!! BTW, my own car delivers what was advertised as has my last 2!! "

" I was overcharged for everything. I had to cancel my trip as my father passed away and left the car at north Tenerife airport as suggested by the inerrant staff. Although I had to leave to leave Tenerife urgently at 4 am I made sure to leave the tank nearly full but when called the so cold customer service I was informed that I have lost the deposit of £93 taken out my card. Comparing to other companies like booking.com who refunded my full £430 and having a fantastic customer care and understanding, I will never use your services again. "

We took photos of car and it was required as on return they said damage was done by us but photos proved otherwise. They tried to say we lost the aerial but we had no radio for two weeks as radio said no authentication. We also had to call them out after only driving from the airport to our resort as the car would not start. He had to put the charge box on for a short while and then wanted to charge us €110 for the privilege. We said they have provided a faulty car so we didn't believe we should pay. Will have to see if they have charged us when I get my credit card statement. It would appear Interrent have joined forces with Goldcar and it a complete shambles and not the same level of service. "

There was a ticketing system that wasn't working. We were then served by a nice chap and he was courteous and efficient. He guided us to the pick-up spot and everything was ok. We bought some additional insurance cover at the desk. The car was booked as a 'Polo or equivalent'. We were advised that it would be a Corsa. was there ever an option for a Polo? There didn't seem to be any Polo's in the collection area. Upon arrival at the pick up area (which is amongst the furthest from the terminal) we were advised of the car. The car was tightly parked in between two other cars on the roadway i.e. not in a regular parking spot. The car was a bit old and a bit scratched. The damage details were listed though so this was good. The mileage was 51k and it was a bit scruffy inside. The parcel shelf was broken and loose. The car drove smoothly though and it was ok but not impressive. "

" Our entire experience with Interrent was disappointing. At the airport pickup my husband noticed a maintenance light on the dashboard so he told the employee in the portacabin about the issue expecting to be given another car. This man seemed slightly annoyed and said that he couldn't help, my husband would need to go back into the airport terminal to sort it out. He never apologised, made it very clear that he would not help and didn't seem bothered that now I was left sitting on the tarmac with my 3 year old in the hot sun. My husband sorted out another car and took photos of its condition, thankfully. When we returned the car to the airport we were met by the same employee who unhelpfully made my husband park it in a ridiculously small parallel parking space then he checked over the car. After checking he said that he had noticed a dent on one side and asked if we had photos from before. Thankfully we did and it showed that we hadn't done any damage to the car. However, it made me wonder what would have happened if we hadn't had photos?? It seemed like he would start charging us for a defect that we didn't cause. Does Interrent regularly find ways to charge people for defects on their cars upon return to get more money? This is very concerning and left me with a huge red flag about ever renting with Interrent again! "

" My flight was late and landed late. Upon reaching interdental counter the staff was forcing me to take insurance for tyres. Else she said there is no spare tyre and if tyre burst I will be charged 300euro and will not get replacement car. Also after reachingcar which was parked half kilometer away was found damaged and went back to counter she asked me to take photograph and bring back. I was tired and back and front between car and counter so many times. Some one else was there for four hours.when retuned car she asked me to park some where else than previously said. "

" Thank you auto Europa for your advice "
" Warning if your rented already or if you looking to rent from them play attention. Before they give you the keys they will lie you saying we don't have this car and we can give you another one ,what you will not expect and sign the papers and giving them the credit card details you gonna pay for another car men's you paid for 2 cars, of course the second car is going to be more expensive. And if you tell them I paid already for the car the answer is going to be "you paid just for the basic insurance" at least this was happened with us 3 families ,all 3 the same story. After asking them we want to talk with manager because we know we paid for the car with insurance the magic was happened all our three cars have been founded at the exactly same price that we paid with insurance and our money for the second cars being returned to accounts.

" I think I said it all. Shocking experience. "
" I've never seen a hire car in such bad condition. Absolute disgrace. On the third day I drove at night to where we were staying which was 900m up and several miles into the mountains. One headlight didn't work and it was pitch black. The car was not roadworthy. So I spent that night and the next morning complaining until they agreed to replace the car. So I filled up, drove back to the airport and waited while they inspected the vehicle and then go another car in roadworthy condition. Very disappointed. Shocking that you can let an unroad worthy car be hired out. "

" Poor. Not the service I paid for and feel cheated. "
" Upon arrival we were offered a Fiat500 as an identical car to a Nissan Micra as they did not have this vehicle. I was offered a Clio but on the basis that an additional 72 euros was paid. I highlighted that a Clio is a like for like replacement for a Micra and they state that there is a significant size difference. I highlighted that there is less than 1.6 cm in size difference (3.99m v 4.06) and they state that this must be taken up with the agents directly. Whilst I recognise t&cs state a like for like replacement in terms of size, why a 1cm longer Clio costs more than a Micra is preposterous. Had we been aware of this we could have saved 58 euros by booking an economy car elsewhere as your service was only 14 euros less and rivals guaranteed an economy car. I would very much like to see the additional payments I had to make refunded. "

" Upppon Arrival to the airport WE were not able to take the car we reserved as our bank card was "debit card " not "credit". Thoth nowadays Credit card term is used, understood AS BANK CARD. In case we wanted to take the car we reserved and PAID FOR THE RENT WITH FULL INSURANCE INCLUDED aprx 26o Euros We were obliged to PAY FOR AN OTHER FULL INSURANCE called" Premium Security Package" for 268 Euro TO INTERRENT, THE COOPERATING COMPANY to deliver us a car, (same price as we paid to AuroEurope for 2 weeks rent with full cover insurance!) Than after PAYING THEM BY DEBIT CARD FOR THIS AND 100 EURO DEPOSIT they were OK to give us a car ! They ignored that our Previosly WE paid A Reservation WITH AUTOEUROPE THAT ALREADY CONTAINED A FULL INSURANCE FOR ALL DEMAGES!!! They, Interrent Said "we dont know that, we cant see what type of agreement you have with Autoeurope and we just want to insist on the Credit card , if no credit card we must pay for this Premium Security" At the and we were able to take away a car THAT COSTED EXACTLY THE DOUBLE PRICE!!!

" 1) When picking up the car, the staff pressured me into taking extra insurance which clearly isn't worth the paper it was written on. 2) The insurance didn't cover anything 3) There was pre existing damage on the car, which was logged in the wrong place by the company. I did not cause this damage, but I am being charged for it. This is disgraceful.

Customers before me were having issues one with what they had been charged and another with being told their booking was cancelled. I got to the counter and was upsold a insurance package at a cost of approx £8. Something I confirmed verbally. The man at the counter took my card details for the payment instead of using a chip and pin machine. And then mid way through my holiday I discover via my banking app that I was charged £60 odd as this charge was per day! The car rental was only £40 for the week so I wouldn't have agreed to pay this if I had known as I had excess protection from home. I tried ringing customer service to be told they couldn't do anything. I then went to the counter at the airport to be told they wouldn't cancel it for the rest of the holiday and refund me I could only deal with customer service via email. After very rudely stopping dealing with me to deal with another customer after i had stood queueing for 40 minutes because yet again they only had one person on a counter with 4 computers. I emailed to receive a very quick response now over 2 weeks later to say that they won't be refunding. Awful experience with them from start to finish. The car was ok but the service was shocking "

A number of people were there waiting one had been there for 2 hours. I was told I could pay 28 euros to get a faster service. This is wrong and have never seen this before. I have a photo of this sign in the window. Eventually I was seen and got the keys for the car 1 hour later. There was also a hard sell for different extra insurances which I refused as I has excess insurance from England. I have been to Tenerife Airport twice a year for 30 years and I have never had this hassle from any rental company there. Interrent were the pits.

" Rental vehicle was a little scratched and scraped on the outside, however, rental went well and vehicle was fine. Always worry they will take money off our credit card after rental as no receipt is ever given at end to say all OK! "
" good service-nice people "
" very helpful "
" See below, same comment applies. "
" Paying for a full tank of fuel at point of hire is a good way for Hire Company to gain extra money. I used the car a fair amount, but returned the car at the end of the week with almost a half tank of diesel left - it is almost impossible to use it all. A much fairer system would be to pay just for fuel used, by returning the car with a full tank. "
" Very easy to use website, competitively priced. "
" Easy pick-up and return. Good condition car supplied, better model than expected. "
" I've used meny rental companies in Tenerife but auto Europe are by far the one that I will always use again an will be making another booking layer this year "
" Prompt as usually I wait up to an hour to get served which is why I would use you again. "
" Make sure car maintenance is carried away before delivery to customers "
" Well organised pick up and drop off services with a smile except that the car I was given had a broken rear windscreen wiper and that the petrol gauge did not work showing all the time an optimistic tank content. I almost ran out of petrol on my way back to the airport. Other than that everything was OK. "
" all excellent no problems at all "
" Europcar only had one guy on reception so I had to queue for 30 mins - otherwise OK - VW Polo was great. "
" Very satisfied with booking system. "
" Prompt efficient service both at pick up and drop off. Car was clean and in good condition. "
" Very happy with the service I received from Auto Europe "
" Very satisfied "
" Everything went well with the car, collection and drop off were very efficient, but whilst I used a full tank of fuel on my 10 day hire, I believe people hiring for 4 days upto 7 days could well be penalised. "
" Very efficient "
" no problems "
" i have used your service many times and have always been very pleased. "
" the lengh of time in queue as the process of filing in the documents is slow. is it not possible to have everything pre down and why was the car not checked and damage pre recorded. i thought the car gear box was noisey and not very good. "
" Easy to use web-site. "
" Good helpful staff. No waiting for either collection or drop-off. "
" I initially reserved a car with a full to full fuel policy. Unfortunately the voucher stated the fuel policy was full to empty. However this was sorted out quite quickly by a phone call to the Auto Europe Customer Service Team. "
" The car provided was a VW Polo which was great. The pickup and drop off procedure was very efficient. "
" Absolutely no problems at all. "
" Very good, no problems, no hard sell trying to get us to upgrade from the car we had chosen like some companies do. "
" car clean, and recent "
" the only thing... I paid 30 euros for the GPS wasn't work well. no uplate sine 1 year minimum so lot of roads it doesn't know or change. and it stay mode n/s/w/e so it mean it doesn't move the location with me so some time it was dificulte to see exatly where i have to turn. "
" Service first class. "
" The only comment was that the exterior was not washed and windsceen not clean, otherwise the vehicle was perfect. "
" Cost of full tank of petrol seemed high "
" I have used Auto Europe before with no complaints and the booking this time was easy. However please see my comments about GoldCar LV below, a company which I think you need to take a further look at regarding the transparency of their pricing. "
" Their policy re paying for petrol used is subsidising their rental fees (which appear low), and therefore the figures quoted for rental are not transparent. I paid 85 euro for a full tank of petrol on a Seat Ibiza, with prices in Tenerife at 1.13euor per litre. Any fuel left in the tank therefore is then charged again to the next hirer. I would expect to pay approximately the same price for filling up my 3 litre Lexus at current UK prices and this has a much bigger tank. In the end, this was no cheaper than hiring from what may have initially seemed to be a more expensive company. In addition, insurance was not as comprehensive as expected, and I felt I needed to upgrade this on arrival at airport rental office. "
" Long queue to pick it up. otherwise very good "
" Have more staff when they know a lot of flights are arriving with car bookings "
" Good booking process. Good price. I do not like the policy of collect car full of fuel, return car empty. "
" Good car but: (1) A very hard sell on Goldcar extra insurance. (2) Salesman tried to charge us for extra insurance, even though we had declined. (3) We were overcharged for a tank full of fuel. (4) Collect full - return empty fuel policy encourages frivolous use of car. (5) No liquid in screen wash reservior. "
" Great "
" good service and price car went back 3/4 full of fuel!!!!! "
" have used before dont like the fuel policy,will have to do taxi runs to use a full tank in 14 days. "
" We were very satisifed however we were not so pleased about the fuel cost surcharge for a group 1 car being the same as for top of the range car. Group 1 cars have much smaller tanks, and we were not made aware of this. Therefore we would not recommend you to other people despite the fact that we have rented for the last week of our holiday. "
" Everything went very smoothly at the airport and were quickly supplied with a car which was quite new. "
" easy to use will use again "
" car was clean and looked new met expectations will use again "
" The price was fair and the process very simple. "
" Quick service and very simple process. "
