This worked brilliantly for our weekend trip. Richard was really helpful and made this easy for us as first time users of Goboony. He’d thought of everything, and helped me understand everything I needed to know about the van before we headed off. September 2025

Really super vehicle. Very clean , modern and super well equipped. Gandalf was a great drive and Richard a friendly and accommodating owner. Everything was perfect and we'd an excellent trip. August 2025
Response from Richard Thanks for the kind review, and it was a pleasure meeting you and your son. Excellent communication throughout and the van came back spotless. Richard

We had a fantastic trip in Gandalf! It was our first time in this size of camper and we really appreciated how easy to drive and manoeuvrable it was. We still had plenty of space too, despite being a family of 4 with teen kids. Richard was great - thank you for your flexibility and quick and easy communication. It made the whole experience a pleasure! We would happily rent again or recommend to friends and family. Sharon July 2025

Camper was in great condition and immaculate inside. It was well equipped and the owner had thought of absolutely everything we could need, and had some great tips for us before we set off. Richard was very helpful and responsive throughout. Highly recommended! July 2025
