Tour Setting  – > Booking

Minimum days for Booking

This pro feature allows you to define the minimum number of days in advance that a customer can book a tour before the departure date. This helps ensure you have enough time to prepare for the tour.

Example: If you set the minimum days to 3, a customer cannot book a tour departing tomorrow (1 day advance) but can book a tour departing in 3 days or later.

Disable Same-day Booking

This option allows you to restrict bookings from happening on the same day. If enabled, customers cannot book a tour for the current date.

  • Yes: Disables booking for the same day.
  • No: Allows booking for the same day (if minimum days for booking is met)

Enable Traveler Info

Enable this option if you want to collect additional information from travelers during the booking process. This information might include name, date of birth, or any other details relevant to the tour.

However, we have a “Form Builder” in the Settings section which allows customers to input their information if they choose. 

Tourfic users can set up which information they want. Click the “Add New” button to get a new field and define the new information. 

Users can bring the customer information over here from “Settings” as well. 

  • Yes: Enables traveler information collection during checkout.
  • No: Disabled traveler information collection during checkout.

Booking Type

This crucial setting defines how bookings for the tour will be handled.

Default Booking (WooCommerce)

This is the default option and leverages WooCommerce for a streamlined booking and payment experience. 

Note: You’ll need to configure WooCommerce booking and payment methods beforehand.

External Booking

This option lets you effortlessly connect to an external booking system by providing a URL. You can also hide the default booking form and price, and add query attributes to the external booking link.

Customers will be redirected to the external website to complete the booking process.

Booking Without Payment:

This option allows customers to book a tour without requiring any upfront payment. They will only need to provide the necessary booking details.

Taxable

This is a binary switch that determines whether or not tax will be calculated for the specific tour.

  • Yes: Selecting “Yes” activates the tax calculation engine for this particular tour. The final price presented to the customer will include the tour price plus any applicable taxes based on your chosen tax class.
  • No: Choosing “No” disables tax calculation for this tour. The customer will only see the base price of the tour without any additional tax charges.

Tax Class

This option becomes relevant only when “Taxable” is set to “Yes”. It allows you to assign a specific tax class to the tour. 

  • Standard Rates: This class typically applies the highest tax rate mandated by your region.
  • Reduced Rate Rates: This class applies a lower tax rate than the standard rate. 
  • Zero Rate Rates: This class indicates that the product or service is exempt from tax altogether.

Besides these options, you can use WooCommerce to set up different tax rates and tax classes if you choose. Please see the WooCommerce Documentation on Taxes to find out how.
