Booking - Activities


An Activity Provider is one who provides fun activities for your clients while they are on their Departure, such as a winery visit, visiting a chocolate factory, or a penguin tour.


Activities for your Bookings can be managed as follows:
  • Select the Booking on the left hand side of the screen, and click on the Providers tab, then choose the Activities tab
  • You will see a day by day view of each Activity booking.  Initially these activity records are populated by the content of this Departure's Activity settings.
