Booking and availability

Everything about booking directly, reserving and pickup times.

How do I book a Rent A Bob?

You can calculate the fare straight away on the website, call or message us. For evenings, events and holidays we recommend booking ahead so planning can confirm availability.

Can I arrange a BOB last minute?

Often yes. In many regions a BOB can be arranged within about an hour. The final pickup time depends on location, how busy it is and the ride distance.

Do you also drive during the day?

Yes. Euro BOB/Rent A Bob drives during the day too. For daytime rides a minimum charge from €82 incl. VAT applies.

Can I still cancel my ride?

Within the primary service area you can cancel free of charge up to one hour before the start. If you cancel within that hour, Euro BOB may charge at least 50% of the fare, with a minimum of €82 incl. VAT. If the driver is already waiting on location, waiting time may be added. Outside the primary area, planning may charge costs once the driver is already on the way.

Ride, car and driver

What to expect when the driver arrives.

Do you bring my car home too?

Yes. The Rent A Bob drives you home in your own car. So you are safely home and your car is not left at the restaurant, party or office the next day.

Who drives my car?

A professional, screened driver from Rent A Bob/DriveMe. The driver drives carefully, presentably and according to the agreed ride arrangement.

Can someone ride along?

Yes, as long as it fits within the number of seats and the ride arrangement. Share stops or extra passengers in advance so planning can assess the ride properly.

Rates and payment

Clarity on costs, surcharges and payment options.

What does a Rent A Bob cost?

Rides start from €82 incl. VAT. The total price depends on the base fare, kilometres driven, time, stops, waiting time and any after-hour service. The standard rate states a €37 base fare, €5 per kilometre with a minimum of 9 kilometres, €9 per stop and €12 per 5 minutes of waiting after the included 10 minutes have passed.

What does a stop or waiting cost?

A stop costs €9 incl. VAT. The first 10 minutes of waiting are included. After that a waiting rate of €12 incl. VAT per 5 minutes applies, for example when you are not yet ready to leave or when extra delay occurs at pickup or departure.

What is after-hour service?

After-hour service is the surcharge for BOB rides after regular closing time. Euro BOB charges it from 1 hour after closing. The surcharge is €15 incl. VAT per quarter hour. Example: on Monday night the service closes at 00:00; from 01:00 after-hour service runs. A ride at 03:00 then counts 8 quarter hours of after-hour service.

Can I pay afterwards?

Yes. You can pay afterwards and in several ways: cash, debit card, credit card, invoice or via a prepaid bundle for business customers.
