Overview

A Private/Custom booking can be created for trips that are not bound to a set schedule, or if you would like to create a personalized booking for your guests. You could create custom tours for guests and tailor them to suit your customers; or you accept Activity Inquiries where customers can request a date for the trip, outside your pre-assigned schedule.

Create Custom Booking

To allow your team to create Private/Custom bookings, first, edit user permissions to allow your staff or resellers to make custom bookings.

1. Enable your agent to sell custom tours: To enable the feature for yourself and other users, go to Promotion > Agents & Resellers and search for the Agent you want to edit. To the left, click on the Actions button and select Edit. Here, select the option “Offer Custom Trips”.
   Note that by default, this option is disabled. You’ll have to make these changes manually.  
2. Create a custom booking: Once the permission is enabled, go to the Dashboard from the left menu bar and click on the Create custom booking option by clicking on the down arrow next to the desired activity schedule. This will redirect you to the POS Desk:
3. Select custom booking type: You’ll have the choice of a Voucher or Attraction/Trip. A Voucher is not tied to a date or time and is not limited by resources either. An Attraction/Trip, on the other hand, is bound by a fixed date and has limited capacity:
4. After selecting the type of booking, fill out the trip schedule (Date and Time) and hit Continue:
