Online booking in TripEleven lets travelers book a trek or tour directly from its trip page on your website. Every booking lands in your dashboard, where your team tracks it and follows up. Bookings are included on every plan, and payments are received through your own provider keys or by bank transfer.

Direct bookings

Turn trip-page visits into bookings

Most trekking and tour agencies lose travelers between reading about a trip and actually committing to it. TripEleven puts a direct way to book on each trip page, so a traveler who has decided on the Inca Trail does not have to email back and forth to reserve a place.

Because the booking happens on your own website and under your own brand, the traveler stays in your experience from the first photo to the confirmed trip. You keep the customer relationship instead of handing it to a marketplace.

  • Book from the trip page Travelers choose a trip and book without leaving your website.
  • One dashboard Your team tracks bookings and follows up with travelers in one place.
  • Included on every plan Bookings are part of the platform, not a paid add-on.

One dashboard

Track every booking in one place

Bookings are managed from the same dashboard you use to build trips and publish your website. Your team does not need a separate booking tool, a shared spreadsheet or a forwarded inbox to know what has been booked.

Staff seats let more than one person work in the dashboard: Launch includes 2 staff seats and Business includes 25, so the people who answer travelers can see the same bookings you do.

Example

A traveler books Everest Base Camp from your trip page

  1. The situation

    A traveler in Germany is comparing Everest Base Camp treks late at night. They land on your 14-day trip page, read the itinerary, check the altitude chart and the FAQs, and decide. Instead of sending an email and waiting a day for a reply, they book the trip on the page.

  2. With TripEleven

    The next morning, your operations lead opens the TripEleven dashboard and sees the booking waiting. They follow up with the traveler about arrival details. Because payments run through your own provider keys, the payment is in your own account, not a marketplace's.

The difference

Without and with online booking

    Travelers book from the trip page

  • Reservations tracked across inboxes and spreadsheets

    Every booking appears in one dashboard

  • Booking tool separate from your website

    Booking built into your branded website
