Renting a car in Turkey, is no deposit actually a thing?

    Hey guys, so I'm planning a trip to Turkey this summer and want to hire a car to get around properly. Back here in the UK most rental companies want a hefty deposit upfront which always stresses me out. A friend mentioned that low cost car hire in Turkey without deposit is actually possible over there. Is that legit or just too good to be true? Anyone dealt with this?

    Yeah it's a real thing, not all companies do it but they exist. Just make sure you read the terms carefully because sometimes the no deposit part comes with other conditions. Overall renting in Turkey is pretty affordable compared to Western Europe.

    Turkey is genuinely one of the better places to rent a car without overpaying. The roads outside the big cities are great for a drive and having your own wheels makes a huge difference for getting to spots that tours just don't reach. Low cost car hire in Turkey without deposit is more common than people expect, and there are services that handle it in a pretty straightforward way, no nasty surprises at the counter. Worth sorting it before you fly rather than scrambling at the airport. One option worth looking at is https://turkey-rentcar.ru/en/no-deposit/
