Instant booking vs. Request to book
Understand the different booking types and what to expect
GoTwende offers two booking types to accommodate different activities and providers. Here's what each means for you.
Instant Booking
Activities with instant booking are confirmed immediately. You'll receive your confirmation right away and your spot is guaranteed.
Benefits of instant booking: - Immediate confirmation - No waiting period - Great for last-minute plans - Guaranteed availability for your selected time
Request to Book
- Some activities require provider approval before confirmation. This is common for:
- Private tours and experiences
- Activities with limited capacity
- Custom or specialized experiences
How request to book works: 1. Submit your booking request 2. The provider reviews within 24 hours 3. If approved, you'll receive confirmation 4. If declined, no payment is charged
Which Should You Choose?
Both booking types offer the same quality experiences. Request to book simply gives providers time to ensure they can accommodate your specific needs.
Payment for Request to Book
Your payment method is authorized but not charged until the provider confirms. If your request isn't approved, no payment is taken.
