Key Features of TripAdmit’s Post-Tour Messaging

Automated Post-Tour Triggers

Messages can be scheduled to send automatically the moment a tour concludes or in the hours and days later, using real-time booking data. This hands-free system ensures no guest is forgotten and no follow-up is missed. You can set specific timing for the outreach, immediately after the tour, later the same day, the following morning or beyond.

A form titled "Upsell" includes fields for Title, Product Description, Custom Link, and Promo text. There's a toggle switch labeled "Active" in the top right corner to manage your tour guide tipping or tour reviews, and a "Save" button at the bottom.

Multi-Channel Communication: SMS, Email & WhatsApp

Today’s guests use multiple platforms, and we help you connect with them wherever they are. Send post-tour messages through text message, email, or WhatsApp, whichever channel provides the highest engagement for your audience. Each message is mobile-friendly, quick to interact with, and doesn’t require any app download or login.

It’s a scalable, future-proof system that ensures smooth operations across all your channels.

Guides

Guides play a key role in influencing both the review that is to be left and the tip for the guide themselves. Post-tour messages can include a guide’s personal tipping link. Driving additional tips for the guide from guests that didn’t have cash on them or the time to wait around at the tour, but also motivates guides by linking performance and their own future tip revenue.

Guests

Guests receive a thoughtful follow-up message that doesn’t just thank them, it invites them back. By offering timely links to leave a review or tip and offering incentives like promo codes, VIP access, or family discounts, you make it easy for them to rebook or explore related tours. It’s a convenient, mobile-friendly way to keep the adventure going.

How It Works

Tour Completion Automatically Triggers Messaging

Once the booking software marks a tour as complete, our platform automatically initiates a communication workflow. You control the timing, immediate or delayed follow-up, depending on your preference.

Message Sent via Smart Channel Selection

Based on available guest contact data, the system selects the best channel – SMS, WhatsApp, or email – for each recipient. This optimised delivery method ensures that guests are more likely to open and interact with the message.

Follow-Up Logic for Missed Messages

If a guest doesn’t open or engage with the first message, the system automatically follows up on a different channel (if available). This retry logic ensures maximum visibility and increases the chances of post-tour engagement, all without any manual involvement from your team.
