Which booking systems work best for managing distillery and visitor centre tours?

For small operations running just a couple of tours on weekends, a simple product page on Shopify paired with a spreadsheet for manual tracking is sufficient. For venues running multiple tours daily with specific requirements like group size limits and recurring events, members recommend a dedicated booking plugin. - **Evey** — The go-to recommendation for active tour operations. The upgraded package costs around £50/month plus 50p per ticket sold. Members praise its seamless Shopify integration, easy setup of recurring events, and optional scan-in functionality for guest check-in. Works well for venues needing to manage group sizes and capacity constraints.
