While planning my extended trip to Dubai, I just knew that traveling around with public transportation wouldn’t cut it. I prefer not to deal with the people on buses and metros, and I knew for a fact that the taxi fares would cost an arm and a leg once I was through with my stay. I needed the convenience and comfort of my own vehicle, so I finally decided to get a Dubai car rental.
Renting a car was my sister’s idea. At first, I was a little skeptical about renting a car in Dubai, the city of luxury, style and opulence for a whole month. “It’ll burn a hole through my pocket!” was what I told her. But she convinced me to do a bit of research, and I was quite impressed with the prices I saw online from OneClickDrive- A car rental marketplace known for their diverse fleet and great deals. I’m so glad I found them and here’s how my month-long car rental experience went.
My Search For The Right Car
My rental journey began on the OneClickDrive website. It impressed me right from the start with its user-friendliness, lots of helpful content and amazing fleet of cars. I just knew I made a good choice of where to get my monthly rent a car in Dubai. Searching for the perfect car was pretty easy and straightforward. The site had very helpful filters that allowed me to find cars based on model, price, rental duration and even car features.
Since I wanted to rent a car for an entire month, I was on the search for a plan that would give me the best long-term rates. I browsed through many standard brands like Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Toyota, and BMW. The site allowed me to view many cars at a glance and compare prices, which really helped me speed up my decision making. I eventually settled on a beautiful silver 2021 Toyota Camry. I chose this car because of its reliability and fuel efficiency, perfect for driving through the bustling city.
The Booking Process
Booking the car was super easy. Once I was happy with my choice of vehicles, I contacted the supplier via WhatsApp. They were quick, professional and friendly towards me. My car reservation was also confirmed within minutes. A+ for customer service. My favorite part of it all was that they offered to have the car delivered to me at my desired location. I was happy about that and requested an airport delivery.
At The Airport
When I arrived at the airport parking lot, my Toyota Camry was waiting right there for me, looking just as good as it did in the pictures. I was really impressed! The company’s representative was there to show me all the features of the car and hand over the keys to me. Once I had the keys, I sped off to my rented apartment. It was night time, and the city locked every bit as good as you would expect Dubai to look at night. I couldn’t wait to see all Dubai had to offer after a good night’s rest.
My Month With The Rental Car
Having the car for an entire month allowed me to fully get used to it and integrate it into my routine. It was really easy to drive, and I took it everywhere. From my daily coffee runs to weekend getaways. As expected of Toyota, the car was reliable and fuel efficient.
Driving through Dubai was always a nice experience, because the roads were wide and well-maintained. Exploring the city at my own pace was one of the highlights of my trip. I visited a number of popular tourist attractions and a few not-so-popular hidden gems. I visited the Dubai Mall, the Palm Jumeirah, and even took a road trip to Abu Dhabi.
Returning The Car
The return process was just as easy as picking it up. The rental company sent a representative who came to get it at the airport. I handed over the keys, he conducted a quick but thorough inspection of the spotless vehicle and we rounded up the return process quickly and efficiently.
I’ll be honest, I held my breath because with my previous rental experiences, there were almost always last minute reprises or hidden fees. But OneClickDrive surprised me in the best of ways!
Final Thoughts
Renting my car from OneClickDrive for the whole month turned out to be the perfect decision. The process was smooth and easy from start to finish, and is an experience I would not hesitate to repeat. For anyone planning a trip to Dubai, whether long or short, renting a car through OneClickDrive is a great way to get the best experience and value for your money.
