Why it matters

Travellers book the experience others rave about.

Reviews are the currency of travel. The more recent five-star stories you have, the more the next traveller chooses you.

FAQ

Tours & Travel, answered.

When should I ask guests for a review?
At the peak of the experience or right after. A QR code on-site or a message post-tour gets the best response.
Reviews are spread across Google, TripAdvisor and more. Can you bring them together?
Yes. Every platform lands in one inbox where you reply from a single place.
Can I reply to reviews in the guest's language?
Yes: draft on-brand replies quickly and adapt tone and language to each guest. It's worth it: 88% of people prefer a business that replies to all its reviews (BrightLocal, 2024).
Do reviews affect where I rank on TripAdvisor and Google?
Strongly: reviews are around 16-20% of local-ranking weight (Whitespark), and recency and response rate push you up the results travellers scroll.
What does review management cost for a tour operator?
Free forever for Google reviews on one business, with paid plans from $49/month and a 14-day trial. Operators monitoring OTA and travel-platform reviews as well use the paid tiers to bring those into one inbox.
How quickly can an operator start?
Minutes to connect, and the first request can go out after the next departure. The useful decision is when to send it, not how to set it up.
When is the best time to ask a guest for a review?
Same day, while they are still glowing, on the coach back, at the dock, or that evening. Wait until they are home and unpacking and you are competing with laundry and email. A QR code the guide can show at the end of the tour is the highest-converting version of this.
How do we handle a review about weather or something outside our control?
Acknowledge the disappointment, avoid arguing about the cause, and say what you do offer when conditions turn. Future travellers read those replies closely. They are trying to work out what happens if their day goes the same way.
