How can we help?

Most questions are answered fastest by our assistant. When you need a person, WhatsApp is the quickest way to reach one.

Quick answers

Does it cost anything to get quotes?

No. Requesting a trip and receiving quotes is free, and MyGetawayBuddy adds no booking fee or commission. You arrange payment directly with the agent whose quote you accept.

How long do quotes take to arrive?

Usually a few hours. We email you as soon as the first quote lands, and every quote you receive is visible side by side in My Trips.

Am I committed to anything when I send a request?

No. A trip request is not a booking. Nothing is confirmed until you accept one specific agent's quote, and you can amend or cancel your request before that.

Can I change my trip after sending the request?

Yes — amend it from My Trips. Changing your dates, destinations, party size or vehicle re-notifies the agents who can quote your trip, including ones who passed the first time.

How do I reach the agent running my trip?

Once you accept a quote, that agent's own WhatsApp number appears on the trip in My Trips, prefilled with your booking reference. Before that, use the country WhatsApp line or the assistant on this page.

Are the reviews and ratings real?

Yes. Ratings and review counts are computed only from approved reviews left by travellers with a real booking, and from completed trips. A new agent shows “no reviews yet” rather than a placeholder score — we never seed or invent one.
