Managing Back to Back Tours: Made Easy

Combining multi day tour products to create back-to-back or modular tours is a tried and true strategy for operators looking to expand their product offering. Operators can capitalise on travellers looking for extended holidays with a new breadth of product simply by advertising multiple tours as one cohesive trip. 

Although the concept is simple, managing back to back tours can quickly become an operational nightmare. Properly tracking seat allocation, hotel availability, and other related costs can be difficult enough when only selling a singular tour on a sole platform. 

Combine that with selling tours as part of various different products on multiple platforms, allocation management becomes extremely difficult. Although the smart new back-to-back  product may be flying off the shelves, customer experience is jeopardised with the risk of over allocation. 

Luckily, Tour Amigo’s Back-to-Back Tour Builder has solved this problem. The Back-to-Back feature allows the operator to quickly combine multiple itineraries with just a few clicks while also tracking availability per booking, automatically. 

This means, if a tour is selling through multiple channels as a standalone product and selling through multiple channels as a part of  a back-to-back tour, the system will track seat allocation, deduct accommodation availability per room and rate, and apply all other related operational costs  automatically at time of booking. The operator will easily be able to track selling progress and manage allocation based on what’s selling, where. 

This allows the operator to save a significant amount of time that would be spent manually updating allocation or reaching out to customers to break the bad news that the seats they have purchased are no longer available.
