Replace the Paper Form, Keep Your Questions

TripAdmit’s Digital Guest Questionnaire puts your own feedback form on every guest’s phone, in your branding and unique to each tour. It’s built for multiday and escorted tour operators. Every response reaches head office the moment it’s sent, and runs straight into the Product Improvement Platform, TripAdmit’s AI analysis tool.

Not Just a Report: Analysis You Can Drill Into

Most feedback tools stop at a report. With TripAdmit, every questionnaire runs through the Product Improvement Platform, a powerful AI analysis tool. Start with the big picture, then drill down tour by tour, departure by departure, Tour Manager by Tour Manager and guest by guest.

What Do Digital Guest Questionnaires Do?

Everything your paper form does, on the guest’s phone, with the results on your desk the same day.

Unique to Every Tour

Every Itinerary Gets Its Own Questionnaire

Each tour’s questionnaire lists that tour’s own hotels and visits, so guests rate the places they actually stayed and saw. It keeps the questions you already ask: overall satisfaction with the brochure, travel documents, the tour and the Tour Manager, a rating for every supplier, guest profile questions and free-text comments.

Name and email are optional, so guests can be candid.

  • Your hotels and visits, listed
  • Your existing questions kept
  • Your branding, no app

Three Ways to Respond

Feedback From the Coach, Any Time

Your Tour Manager invites guests to scan a QR code at set moments, such as Day 1, mid-tour and the final day. It takes two or three minutes and gets the highest response rate.

A sticker on every seat back means guests can also give feedback whenever they like, in private. Each coach’s code opens that tour’s questionnaire. After the tour, post-tour messaging by email, SMS or WhatsApp catches anyone who didn’t respond on the coach.

  • Tour Manager prompts
  • A QR code on every seat
  • Post-tour messages for the rest
Live Dashboard

See Every Score the Moment It Arrives

Every response goes straight to head office, so you can act while the tour is still on the road. The live dashboard shows your scores by supplier, tour, departure and Tour Manager, so you know which hotels to talk to and which Tour Managers to thank. Click into any score to drill down in the Product Improvement Platform.

  • Scores by supplier and tour
  • Every departure, side by side

Alerts and Summaries

Unhappy Guests First, in Their Own Words

A daily alert email brings you every new response, with unhappy guests at the top, in the guest’s own words. Each week a summary shows how many guests answered, the average score and how many would recommend you, with an AI summary of what went wrong and what guests loved, and the full report attached as a PDF.

The emails tell you what happened. The Product Improvement Platform shows you why, and lets you dig into it. You choose who receives the alerts, and how often, in the dashboard under Guest Feedback › Alerts.

  • Daily alerts, unhappy guests first
  • A weekly AI summary
  • The full report as a PDF

Why Move From Paper to Phone?

A good form, held back by paper.

  1. Welcome pack
  2. Guest fills it in
  3. Collected on tour
  4. To head office
  5. Read and keyed in
  6. Insight arrives

Feedback While It Still Matters

Paper forms reach head office weeks after the tour, when it’s too late to act. Digital responses arrive while the coach is still on the road.

Every Comment, Already Sorted

On paper, comments have to be read one by one. Online, AI in the Product Improvement Platform reads every word and sorts it into themes for you.

Nothing Left in the Welcome Pack

Paper relies on every hand-off going right, from the coach to the office. Digital responses come straight to you, every time.

Digital goes straight to head office: the same questions your guests already know, on your desk the moment they press send.

How Do Digital Guest Questionnaires Work?

From your paper form to live feedback, in three steps.

Step 1 · Set up

Share Your Form and Itineraries

Your current questions and your tour itineraries become one questionnaire per tour, in your branding, with QR codes for every coach.

Step 2 · On tour

Guests Scan and Answer

Your Tour Manager prompts guests at set moments, and the seat-back QR code is there whenever they want it. It takes two or three minutes.

Step 3 · At head office

Analyse, Act and Improve

Read the daily alert and weekly summary, then drill into the Product Improvement Platform to see what to fix before the next departure.

One QR Code, One Guest Journey

Feedback is just the start. The same QR code takes happy guests on to a review, a thank-you tip for the crew and the optional excursions they can still book.

1 · Feedback

2 · Review

3 · Tip

4 · Optionals

One platform, one login, one set of reports.

How Is This Different From a Survey Tool?

Survey tools such as SurveyMonkey, Typeform, Jotform and Google Forms are great for one-off surveys. A coach tour needs a few things they weren’t built for, and the biggest difference is what happens after the answers come in.

What you need on tour Paper form Survey toolsuch as SurveyMonkey TripAdmitQuestionnaires

Questionnaires are part of the TripAdmit review suite, so the same QR code can lead happy guests on to a Google or Tripadvisor review, while unhappy guests’ feedback stays private with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is TripAdmit’s Digital Guest Questionnaire?

It replaces the paper feedback form in your welcome pack. Guests fill in your own questionnaire on their phone, in your branding, with no app to download. Each tour gets its own questionnaire listing that tour’s hotels and visits, and it keeps the questions you already ask. Every response reaches head office the moment it’s sent.

What analysis comes with Questionnaires?

Every response runs through TripAdmit’s Product Improvement Platform, an AI analysis tool you can drill into. See scores and comments tour by tour, departure by departure, Tour Manager by Tour Manager, supplier by supplier and guest by guest. AI reads every comment, sorts it into themes and flags recurring issues with the guest quotes behind them.

How do guests fill it in on tour?

We recommend all three ways. Your Tour Manager prompts guests to scan a QR code at set moments, such as Day 1, mid-tour and the final day, which gets the highest response rate. A seat-back sticker lets guests give feedback any time, in private. After the tour, an email, SMS or WhatsApp message catches anyone who didn’t respond.

Who sees the responses, and when?

Every response appears on your live dashboard as soon as it’s sent, with scores by supplier, tour, departure and Tour Manager. A daily alert email lists every new response with unhappy guests first, and a weekly summary adds an AI overview and a PDF report. You choose who receives them under Guest Feedback › Alerts.

How is it different from a survey tool like SurveyMonkey?

General survey tools are great for one-off surveys, but they stop at a report. TripAdmit builds a questionnaire for each itinerary and gives every coach its own QR code. Every answer then runs through the Product Improvement Platform, so you can drill down by tour, departure, Tour Manager and guest, alongside your public reviews.

Does it work for day tours too?

Yes. Questionnaires were built for multiday and escorted tours, where guests stay in several hotels and see many suppliers, but day tour operators use them too. A shorter questionnaire, a QR code on the vehicle or from the guide, and post-tour messages work just as well for a single-day tour.
