How it Works - Renters
Dreaming of hitting the open road in your perfect home on wheels? GoGallivanting makes it easy to find, book, and enjoy vehicles listed by real people — all in just a few simple steps.
Step 1: Create Your Free Account
Sign up in seconds to explore available vehicles and save your favourites. Creating an account helps keep everything secure for both owners and renters.
Step 2: Browse & Book with Confidence
Use filters to find the perfect vehicle for your trip — from compact campervans to luxury motorhomes. Check the listing details, read reviews, and see exactly what’s included.
Step 3: Get Verified
Before you book, we’ll ask for a few details to verify your identity and driving eligibility. This helps keep everyone safe and ensures a smooth handover.
Renters must:
- Be over 25 years old
- Hold a valid driving licence for the vehicle type
- Agree to the vehicle’s individual terms
Step 4: Arrange Your Insurance
Unlike other platforms, we don’t add hidden fees for insurance — you stay in control.
You’ll need to source your own fully comprehensive hire and reward insurance for the rental period. We’ll guide you on how to do this and remind you before your booking begins.
Don’t worry — it’s easier than you think, and we’ll help you every step of the way.
Step 5: Stay Connected with 24/7 Messaging
Once your booking is confirmed, you’ll have access to our built-in messaging system and direct contact details of your vehicle owner. Our messaging platform is available 24/7 throughout your rental, so you can stay in touch with the vehicle owner at any time.
Step 6: Check In, Hit the Road
You and the owner will complete our shared pre-rental checklist during the handover. This protects you both and gives you peace of mind.
Then? It’s time to GoGallivanting
Step 7: Return, Reflect, and Review
At the end of your trip, you’ll both complete the checklist again. The owner will inspect the vehicle, and your security deposit will be returned within 48 hours — assuming there are no issues.
