Tours & Activities

For businesses offering city tours, wine tastings, day trips, group tours, and other activities, efficient scheduling and participant management are crucial. Cally, a dynamic booking app for Shopify, provides a comprehensive solution to streamline your operations and elevate the experience for your clients.

Seamless Guide and Staff Management

Managing multiple guides and staff members for various tours and activities can be complex. Cally simplifies this process:

• Tailored Weekly Schedules: Create and manage individual recurring schedules for each guide or staff member, including their availability, holidays, and days off. This ensures accurate scheduling and availability for your tours and activities.
• Activity-Specific Assignments: Assign guides to specific tours or activities they lead. This allows clients to select their preferred guide when booking, enhancing their experience and satisfaction.

Streamlined Tour Location Setup

In the tours and activities sector, clear location management enhances customer engagement:

• Varied Tour Options: Manage different starting points for tours, whether they are online, at physical locations, or conducted on-site.
• Real-Time Availability: Ensure customers can see real-time availability for each tour or activity based on location.

Flexible Tour and Activity Scheduling

Do you offer seasonal tours or time-bound activities? Cally makes it easy to manage:

• Non-Repeating Schedules: Set up schedules for tours or activities that are available only during specific periods. For example, create a schedule for a fall foliage tour, ensuring clients have access to accurate availability and details.

Integrated Calendar Management

Keeping track of tour and activity schedules is vital for smooth operations. Cally simplifies this process:

• Calendar Linking: Link your guides’ and staff members’ calendars to Cally. This integration allows them to view all their appointments and tours without needing access to your admin panel, reducing the risk of missed tours and ensuring everyone stays organized.

Flexible Tour Durations

Tours and activities often require flexible booking durations, such as custom-length city tours. Cally provides the flexibility needed:

• Variable Duration Booking: Allow clients to book tours for custom durations. For example, if a one-hour city tour costs $50, a client can book a three-hour tour and pay $150. This feature enhances convenience and maximizes your booking potential.

Group Tour Bookings

For tours and activities that accommodate multiple participants, such as wine tastings or group day trips, Cally supports group bookings:

• Multiple Attendees Per Slot: Set a maximum number of participants per tour or activity, allowing multiple clients to book the same time slot. This optimizes your space usage and increases your revenue.
