Totally professional and helpful service throughout process, extremely helpful and friendly.   I will need a vehicle again in the next few weeks and will certainly return to them.  Couldn't have asked for better.

Very accommodating, very reasonable pricing and great service. Lifetime of memories. Emma and the team were brilliant from start to finish. Thanks again and we will for sure use your company again.

We had a problem with the winch and Curtis went out of his way to fix it. Emma even came in on a Sunday to help out. I cannot recommend this company and the team enough.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was recently in the UK and used the AVH services in Manchester. I cannot recommend the company more highly. The staff member, Gabby, is prompt in her email replies, very courteous, and helpful. I was given absolutely clear guidelines throughout the process. When I was unsure of the vehicle functionalities during the trip, the AA team was arranged to assist within one hour of the request being made. The vehicle was clean and spacious and had all the devices needed to ensure the wheelchair passenger's safety. All payment details were unambiguous, and the company is very reliable. My experience was a fabulous one on the whole. I will definitely use their services again on my next trip to the UK. Thank you, AVH.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. The team promptly responded to all my queries, helped me with my choice of vehicle and provided a multitude of payment options. The site is secure and was reassuring when swapping from my car to another. I had a detailed run through for how to use the ramp, belts etc and this was with a wheelchair they had spare. It meant I knew exactly where I was securing my hooks etc. Again, when returning the car this was an easy process. Mum and Nan both loved the car, it was modern, comfortable and great for people watching from! The car had Bluetooth (and Apple car play in this case) which meant I could be subjected to Mum's fav music! I'll definitely be booking again. Thank you guys!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emma offered great customer service! Needed a wheelchair accessible vehicle in a hurry to get my Mother to an Emergency hospital stay. Made an enquiry at 4.50pm and collected at 11.00am the next day. The vehicle was immaculate and had all the features needed. Curtis explained clearly the vehicle operation and controls. And was happy to keep going through it till I was confident.  Thanks again to the team for  making it a smooth and easy hire that exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!
