The camper was great, clean, tidy and easy to use.
Paul’s swift with his response, and the show and tell walk around before use was a help. Would definitely use again.
Joanna
Our first-ever experience of a VW campervan was a resounding success! Paul was helpful and communicative ahead of the hire and did an excellent job of explaining to us novices how to use Orca once we got on the road. She is a beautiful van, immaculate and working perfectly. The beds were extremely comfortable and she was well-equipped for our weekend away. It was a great experience and I'd highly recommend Paul and Orca for your next adventure!
Response from Paul
Hi Jo, thank you for your fantastic review! It was a pleasure to meet you and your family. Thank you so much for looking after Orca. We hope to see you again in the not too distant future.

Ian
If you are looking for the perfect camping experience, look no further than Orca !!!
If you are like me, it is a bit scary hiring something you know little about and paying a good amount of money for. Paul & Sam will quickly put you at ease and you won’t regret hiring their van. It’s an absolute dream !!!
The handover is smooth and will give you all the info you need to have a great trip. Paul is laid back and makes sure you are fully prepared to use Orca to its full potential. That potential is superb and you have everything required to ensure you will have the best time.
One of these vans is right at the top of my list to buy and I have no doubts you will love it as much as I did.
No stress, no worries, nothing to dislike and definitely nothing to put you off hiring Paul & Sam’s van. I will definitely hire again and you need to as well !!
Thanks Paul & Sam !!!
Response from Paul
Hi Ian, thank you for your review, we are so glad you had a fabulous time away in Orca. We are looking forward to welcoming you back in the not too distant future.
All the best

Dan
This was my first campervan rental and my first booking with gobooney and it all went perfectly.
Paul is really professional, helpful and friendly, he took an extensive time to make sure I knew all I needed to know about the campervan from where everything was to owners hints and tips. Which being my first rental was really helpful.
The van is great and has everything you need for a family of up to 4, everything is in great condition and runs perfectly. Would definitely recommend both the vehicle and owner!
Travelled from Brighton to Dorset and rented the van for 4 nights.
Response from Paul
Hi Dan, thanks for your great review, it was a pleasure to meet you and hire our van to you.
Hopefully we will see you again soon.
Cheers
Paul
Oliver
We hired Paul's amazing campervan for a weekend with our 2 young children. The van was perfect in great condition, incredily comfy beds and perfect heating system for the nights and mornings!!
Paul gave a very thorough review of the van, instructions were super clear and everything went very smoothly. Paul was also very responsive to all questions leading up to the booking and whilst away we had a couple of questions he was more than happy to help with.
A great van and a great person to hire from. Thoroughly recommend!
Response from Paul
Oliver, Thank you for a great review. It was a pleasure to hire to you and your family. We are glad you had such a fantastic time.
Thanks

Caroline
We hired Paul’s lovely motor home for a few days. The handover from Paul was really detailed and he took the time to go through everything we needed to know. The van was really well equipped. We really enjoyed our trip and would rebook.
Response from Paul
Hi Caroline,
It was a pleasure to meet you both, so glad you had a wonderful time in Orca.
We are looking forward to seeing you again soon.
Thanks
Paul.
Lee
Our handover with Paul was excellent, he ensured that we were fully aware of how to use the motorhome. It was clear that Paul took great care of the motorhome and was prepared to give us his time, answering any questions we had. Our trip took us to Germany for the European Championships, the vehicle was perfect for this as it gave us the freedom to explore the country whilst having somewhere comfortable to sleep and prepare food. Whilst in Germany we explored cities such as Cologne, Gelsenkirchen, Frankfurt and Berlin. In addition to this we were able to explore Brugge and Eindhoven on our journey to Germany, experiences that we wouldn't have had without the motorhome. Paul's motorhome in particular was fantastic as it was clear that it had been cleaned and looked after. We would recommend this motorhome to anyone that is looking into hiring regardless of experience, this was our first experience so being able to contact Paul directly with any queries was reassuring.
Response from Paul
Hi Lee,
Thank you for a fabulous review. It was a pleasure meeting and hiring our van to you. Looks like you had a fantastic adventure and a life time of memories. Thank you for taking such great care of Orca. Hopefully we will see you again in the not too distant future.
All the best,
Paul
Zana
Many thanks to Paul for letting us borrow Orca, we had a lovely time down in Ringwood. Paul is a cool chap, handover went smoothly, with everything set up ready for us to go through, answered any questions I had. Orca has everything you need for your time away, Paul has thought of everything. Massive thanks again. I cant wait for the next adventure.
Response from Paul
Thanks for your lovely review Zana. Hopefully we will see you again soon. 😁
So glad we chose to book Paul’s campervan. First off the camper van itself was brilliant. I felt like an excited kid as Paul showed me round all the features and clever storage. It has everything you need, easy to use, and way more room than I thought there would be for us and the kids. Secondly, Paul was so helpful, and easy to arrange pickup with. He took the time to run through everything, answering questions I had, and made the whole process really easy. I would definitely recommend hiring with Paul.
Response from Paul
Thanks Matt,
It was a pleasure to hire to you.

Paul
Orca the VW California Ocean was fantastic. Everything you could need was provided, you just need your clothes and food. Lots of storage in various small cupboards. The handover from Paul was very informative and also the vehicle was brilliant to drive. Provided a brilliant base whilst away on holiday in Norfolk.
Thank you Paul for providing a spotless vehicle.
Response from Paul
Hi Jane,
Thank you for your wonderful review, it was a pleasure to meet you and we are so glad you had a great time in Orca.
Many thanks,

Connie
We absolutely loved hiring Paul's camper, which had everything we needed for a week exploring the south coast in style and comfort! Paul was super responsive and helpful, and took great care of us, including taking lots of time to talk us through how to use the van, and even recommending campsites. Will definitely hire again!
Keith
We hired Orca for a long weekend in Swanage. It was perfect for our small family. The van is immaculate. The handover was thorough and I knew everything I needed to know for a first voyage. Will definitely hire again. Thanks Paul!

Farhad
The whole process with Paul and Orca the camper van was flawless, professional and straight-forward.
You really got the feeling that your enjoyment of the van was very important to Paul as he made sure we knew all about the fantastic features that come with it.
Would certainly recommend and will certainly re-hire next time we fancy a spot of genteel camping.
Response from Paul
Hi Farhad,
Thank you for your review and comments.

A beautiful vehicle leased by good honest people. An absolute joy to lease and a very thorough and professional process which made me feel sure I had made the right decision. Absolutely would recommend!
