I strongly advise against renting from Next Car/ Summit rent a car in El Calafate. We paid a premium price for a 4x4 pickup truck, expecting a reliable vehicle for the area’s terrain, but what we received was a complete disaster.
Ancient & Unsafe: The vehicle was a model from the year 2020 with over 180,000 km. It felt like it was literally falling apart; the bumpers were held together with metal wires! We were constantly terrified it would break down in the middle of nowhere.
Filthy Condition: The car was disgusting. A spare tire was dumped in the trunk, leaving no room for suitcases. Everything was so dirty that every time we handled our luggage, we had to clean the bags and our clothes.
Zero Dust/Rain Protection: Driving on gravel roads was a nightmare as dust filled the entire cabin. The cargo cover was already torn, and they warned us not to touch it so it wouldn't tear further. When we asked for a replacement, they showed us another car where the cover wouldn't even close, threatening our luggage would get soaked in the rain.
Abysmal Service: Instead of taking responsibility, the staff pressured us to make a split-second decision, claiming there were no other cars available.
This was an expensive mistake. Save your money and your safety—rent from a reputable company instead. Highly NOT recommended.
