Good private tour of Tenerife - Friendly & knowledgeable driver ; nice vehicle (for group of 6). Beautiful views (once we got above he clouds & rain..).
One suggestion: (from a Cruise Ship) - Should arrange pick-up at the "Ferry Boat" port/dock , OR on the roadside near the Cruise Sip docks.

Fabulous day exploring the island with amazing driver - I booked at extremely short notice and heard back from the operator almost immediately. We wanted to see the North of the island and our amazing driver Angelo made every effort to ensure we saw as much as possible during the day. He spoke brilliant English and couldn’t have been friendlier. We stopped for a great lunch by the swimming pools at Garachico and went right over to the forest at Anaga. Thank you so much for a really enjoyable day. We packed so much in and couldn’t recommend more highly.

good car rental agency in the Canary Islands - I am very satisfied with CICAR’s services. I traveled to the Canary Islands in July 2023, spending 4-5 days on each of the islands Tenerife, La Gomera, La Palma and el Hierro. For each one I rented a car from CICAR. I had booked in advance but you only pay when you pick up the vehicle. Agencies are present everywhere, ports and airports, plus you can pick up the car from one agency and drop it off at another. The best is to take out comprehensive insurance without excess. The first time I was asked for a small deposit for fuel, which was quickly refunded by transfer when we returned with the tank at the same level. The staff is pleasant, professional, efficient and friendly, and even provided a map of the island. It is really a company to recommend for renting a vehicle on the Canary Islands.

superb private excursion with Paco - superb tour for the teide passing through masca national park returned by the north coast private car electric mercedes driver, Paco, perfect listening very well speaking very French, and in addition very friendly explained perfectly the geology of the island, the botany also very interesting and life on this island, we were blown away by the national park del Teide, we traveled a lot around the planet but it is really to do in better weather.
if you travel as we ask Paco you will not be disappointed to make an excursion in these conditions it is the dream

Budget car rental in Spain. Terrible experience! - If you are renting a car in Spain, I have to warn you. Perhaps this is a one time situation and I had bad luck, but I happily pass on my experience to any interested reader. Please, read on.
I made my reservation with Budget through Booking.com to rent a car in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. When I got to the rental office across from the railway station, it was closed eventhough it was well within their published opening hours. A sign was hanging inside the glassed door that literally said "Volvemos en 10 minutos. Back in 10 minutes". Of course I have a picture to prove this point. I waited for one hour and a half for anyone to come and open the office. No one showed up. I called Budget's customer service number, but they were not able to help, as they can't directly call the office. They gave me the office phone number, but obviously nobody answered. I decided to go to Budget's airport office (at my own expense). Of course, they did not honor the reservation, instead offered me a higher level car at a higher price. I have to say that my original reservation was already paid for through Booking.com. So I thought it was going to be very complex and risky to cancel and go to another car rental. Had I not paid in advance, I would have rapidly gone to the Hertz or Europcar rental offices at the railway station. The agents at Budget's airport office treated me like a crook, as if I was lying in relation to the railway office being closed. But, in the end I had to accept their terms and bad treatment. After all, I was in the middle of my vacation in Spain.
So, beware of Budget in Spain, and in general, beware of car rental agents at Budget car rental agencies in Spain. They made me lose 3 precious hours of my trip, and £180 more in rental fees.

Scandalous and thieves - Don't go to Goldcar to rent, they are scandalous, they steal everything and the cars have scratches which they then charge you. Really bad.
