Super easy to book a completely stress-free car hire from Alaska, USA! Everything is included, nothing billed at pickup or drop off - no trying to upsell us at counter, which was very refreshing! Our vehicle was nice and comfortable, as well. We had a Suzuki S-Cross and the only negative was it’s a bit big. This made for some anxious moments on very narrow country roads in Northern Ireland. But that was user error and not a fault of the car.
Rent the smaller vehicle you can comfortably fit in with your stuff and you’ll do fine on the smaller roads.
When we come back next summer, NewWay is my first stop when planning. Thank you for your excellent rental policy, kind responses to my query emails, and for the friendly staff upon return.

This is my second time using New Way and both times that experience was seamless. However, I want to give special mention to the wonderful Louise at the Shannon desk, who went out of her way to resolve a distressing issue for me. She was magnificent! I will be back!

All good, professional service. I'm not giving it 5 stars because the car was delivered a few kilometers before its service, and evidently no one checked the oil level. On the second day, the water temperature light came on (orange, not red) and a message saying to check the oil level: it was below the minimum. I had to buy the oil and add the correct amount (but I was reimbursed). I can't be the customer to have to do this, especially with 8 days of driving and a lot of kilometers to do in remote areas of Ireland.

Really smooth process. It may have been a little more pricey than other companies but the fact that everything was covered in the price just puts your mind at rest that bit more as oppose to what I read about other companies charging expensive extras for insurance etc. Staff were helpful and efficient. Great car. We got one of the smaller ones but was big to us with our smaller cars back home! Was so economical and a nice smooth runner. Great service

We rented from Dublin Airport at NewWay with zero problem.
Damien was awesome!!
He helped us out both times renting even when our plane landed early, he helped us to get our car with no fuss. We Highly recommend NewWay!
We happened by chance to find a YouTube review on them and how in comparison to their competitors charging insurance or having to get proof of, NewWay was hassle free and fast!

The car was what we expected. Full coverage reduced stress and when we did have a problem our call was answered.

The car was clean, functional and from there the same category as the one initially rented (surprised nevertheless not to have been warned of the change of brand and model) a slight technical problem of light (which happens) but the responsiveness of the team was there .. taking into account and fast and effective return

BEWARE! NOT 24/7 ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AS ADVERTISED. IF YOU ARE IN AN ACCIDENT YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN!!!
I rented a car from NewWay at the Dublin airport. Easy to check in. Got the keys and was on my way. However, I was involved in an accident and the car was totaled. I was left in the middle of an intersection and called the “AA” number that the gentleman at the reception desk told me to call.
NewWay advertises “24/7 worry free roadside assistance. Boy was that a JOKE! Absolutely FALSE advertisement. The numbers on the paper the guy at reception gave us would ring and ring and ring and just say “no one is available goodbye.” I tried Avis and Budget’s as well as on the sheet he gave us they seemed to be affiliated with NewWay. I also took notice to the guy at reception calling over to budget to see if they had a certain car when we checked in. Mind you, I was trying to figure this out as I am staring at my totaled rental in the middle of an intersection with cars wizzing by in a foreign country.
NewWay, Budget, and Avis NEVER answered any calls that night.
When we googled “AA” (their version of triple A in USA) and called the number, they had no idea what to do and they could not get us a tow truck. THIS IS WHAT THEY TOLD ME TO CALL FOR 24/7 ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. What do I do at this point? Extremely stressful. But the advertising shows “24/7 worry free roadside assistance.”
We ended up calling Garda (Police) and they came out and called us a tow truck. They were the most helpful out of this whole experience. Shout out to them for making it better for us.
Over the 3 hours after the accident I tried calling NewWay, Avis and Budget 35+ times. All the same. “No one is available to take your call goodbye”
The next morning I ended up calling a bunch of different budgets around Ireland and finally got someone to answer the call.
Extremely, extremely stressful and false advertisement. I will NEVER be using this service again.
Oh and the real kicker is 14 hours after the AA couldn’t tow us they called and asked if I still needed a tow. WOW!!!

Went to Dublin, Ireland for the first time to have a 3-days roadtrip. Everything went smooth with Newway. They not charge extra like the sixt , avis or hertz with high insurance extra payments. I will rate newway 10/10!! Thanks from Norway

We rented a car for while in Ireland and Northern Ireland.
Standard, two drivers, with the FULL insurance package on line. From start to finish the entire process was smooth and fast. Drop off was a breeze. We just handed in our keys, and were off!! It was worth every penny to have the peace of mind on our drive around the entire Island.
