Sell Out Your Crawls With Direct Bookings

Gondola is the direct bookings growth platform for tour & activity operators, including bar crawls, pub tours and nightlife experiences. We build and run your website, work on how ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI see you, keep your Google profile current, and show which bookings came from which source. Our team checks in every week with what moved and what comes next.

Yes. Your site uses your booking system's own booking widget, so your checkout and your team's routine stay the same. FareHarbor, Peek Pro and Bokun connect directly and send booking data back to us, so we can show you where your bookings came from. A TripWorks integration is in progress. Checkfront, Rezdy, Xola and Regiondo can be embedded on your site.

AI visibility is how often ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI suggest your crawls when people ask what to do, and whether they get your facts right. In our 2026 study of 406,373 AI answers across 34 operators, operators with an AI Start Here page were cited 121% more often, and Gondola sites were the most cited operator site in 74% of their markets (23 of 31). A citation is not a booking, so we also show you the bookings.

It depends on how many crawls, venues and pages you have. We build the site for you, you review it, and we launch when it is right. We give you a timeline for your business on the call.

Yes. We build pages for themed crawls (holiday crawls, costume crawls, bachelor and bachelorette parties), recurring weekly events and private group nights, each with the venue lineup, price, what's included and a Book Now button. When the season changes, change them in the editor or ask our team.

Nobody can promise rankings, and we will not. Every Gondola site is built for search, with fast pages, structured data, local business schema and clear answers. Every page is also optimized for AI, not just your AI Start Here page. We track how often Google and AI show you, and we work on it every week.

Yes. Bar crawl guests often book on their phones, sometimes the night they want to go. Every Gondola site is built for small screens first, with fast pages, big tap targets and a Book Now button that stays in reach.

You can. But you would be building it yourself on a template that was not made for bar crawls, and it sits still after launch. With Gondola, we build the site for you with venue lineups, crawl routes and themed event pages, connect your booking system, and keep improving it every week.

We set up 301 redirects from your old pages to the matching new ones and carry over page titles and descriptions where they still fit, so Google can pass your existing rankings to the new site. We cannot promise rankings will not move, but we watch them closely after launch and fix what we find.

Very little. You share your crawl routes, venue lineups, prices, event dates, photos and booking system details, and we build the site. You review it and tell us what to change. After launch, ask us for a change and a real person replies within one business day.

Yes. In the editor you click a section to change the text, swap photos or adjust prices, move sections up or down, or add a new section. When a new bar joins your route or a holiday crawl comes up, change it yourself or ask our team, and hear back within one business day.

Your domain stays yours. Your Gondola site connects to it, and the site itself runs on our platform as part of your plan. If you ever leave, you take your domain and your photos with you.

Booking system websites are built around the booking engine. Gondola is built to grow your direct bookings: a page for every crawl, AI visibility work, your Google profile, and reports on where your bookings came from. Your booking system still handles the reservations.

That is the goal. OTAs take a commission on every booking and keep the guest's details. A website that Google and AI send people to gives you a channel you control. It will not replace OTAs overnight, and you see your direct bookings by source, so you can watch the shift.

Real people. A real person replies, typically within 5 working hours, and a typical request is resolved within 16 working hours. Operators who rated us in the past year gave us 4.9 out of 5. Our team also reaches out every week with what moved and what comes next.

Yes to both. We can add tracking such as the Meta Pixel, Google Ads conversion tracking and Google Analytics. Ads are an add-on: organic comes first, and when ads make sense for your season, we run them and report the bookings they bring.

It depends on what you need from us, not on how much you sell. On the call we tell you honestly whether we can help, and if we can, we give you the best price we can to make sure you succeed. You also get a free AI visibility assessment: what AI says about your crawls today.
