How to book a trip

17 Sep 2026

This article is for booking a trip. For an experience, read the book-an-experience article. For a rental, read the rent-a-vehicle article.

How do I find a trip?

  1. Use search for a destination, activity, or host.
  2. Open the trip page.
  3. Check open or private type, dates, quota, price, and the refund policy.
  4. Read the description and reviews.

How do I check out a trip?

If the trip page shows checkout:

  1. Sign in as a customer.
  2. Choose the date and guest count.
  3. Review the price summary and refund policy.
  4. Complete payment.
  5. Open Booking in the dashboard.

The system checks availability again at checkout. A checkout button does not guarantee that payment will succeed.

If only a contact-host button is shown, that listing is inquiry. If the trip is private, send a request first.
