The booking is the beginning

Scheduled departures with requirements to review.

Multi-day walking, cycling and expedition trips usually sell places on a fixed departure. Guests need to understand the route, accommodation, required experience and what equipment is included. Accept a direct booking or review an application before inviting payment when the trip calls for it.

What needs to work together

The payer may book for several travellers, each with different equipment and experience. A guide needs the individual records and the route for this departure, rather than a payment receipt and an old itinerary attachment.

How it works

From the booking to a team ready to deliver.

01

Sell a departure with clear requirements

Show the route, dates, accommodation, inclusions and optional activities. Use an application when you need to review experience before confirming the guest, or accept direct bookings for open trips.

02

Gather what the guide needs

Collect relevant experience, equipment requirements, emergency contact information, travel plans and required documents. Keep individual participant details separate from the lead payer’s booking.

03

Create a briefing for the trail

Share daily routes, meeting points, accommodation, transport and useful contacts. The guide’s page can include relevant participant details and notes; the guest page focuses on the experience and preparation.

For the people delivering it

The details each role needs.

Participant record

Departure readiness

Capacity · payments · documents · missing guest details

Routine follow-through

Let the next step follow the booking.

Configure messages around confirmation, payment due dates and arrival. Your team can focus on the guests and tasks that still need attention.

  • After acceptance

    Invite payment and connect the confirmed place to guest preparation.

  • Before departure

    Request incomplete equipment, travel and document details.

  • For the journey

    Share the current itinerary, meeting point and packing guidance.

What the guest sees

A booking and preparation journey they can follow.

Guests know what the trip includes, what they need to bring and where to meet. The itinerary stays accessible on a phone as they prepare to travel.

What the operator sees

The booking and the work still to do.

Guides receive the manifest, schedule and relevant participant information. Operations can see incomplete preparation and outstanding balances before the group leaves.

Practical questions

A few details before you start.

Can we review participants before accepting them?

Yes. Use application and approval booking to collect relevant experience, review fit and then invite payment.

Can one trip have different guides on different dates?

Yes. Assign guides to the departure and share the itinerary and guest information for that group.

Can we use an application for demanding trips and direct booking for others?

Yes. Choose the booking model for each experience. Keep the accepted guest’s departure, payment and preparation connected whichever route they take.

Can Marnie connect to our existing website?

Yes. Use a branded booking link, an embedded journey or an agreed custom integration. We map your booking model, configure the trips, payments, forms and messages, and help connect your website during free setup.
