How to add extras to a tour

Create and manage extras travelers can buy at booking or later — add-ons that don't change dates, and extensions that add pre- or post-trip nights.

Extras are optional items travelers can add to a booking. They come in two types:

  1. Add-ons — activities, services, or upgrades that don't change the trip dates.

  2. Extensions — fixed nights added before or after the trip that shift the traveler's dates.

Extras are managed in Inventory and then configured per departure for pricing and availability.

How to add an add-on

Add-ons are optional items that don't change the trip dates — activities, transfers, or upgrades.

  1. Open the tour you want to configure and go to Inventory → Extras.

  2. Click Add extra, then choose Add-on.

  3. Fill in the fields below and save.

Field

Description

Title
(Required)

The name of the extra shown to travelers during booking (e.g. Private Photoshoot, Airport Transfer).

Description (Required)

What the extra includes. Visible to travelers in the booking flow. Supports rich text formatting.

Image

An image representing the extra, displayed to travelers during booking. Max. size: 20 MB.

Charge type

Per traveler — quantity capped at the number of travelers in the booking. Each traveler can have at most one unit.
Per booking — not limited by traveler count; add any quantity that's in stock. For items bought for the whole group: a private transfer, extra luggage.

Booking deadline

Days before the trip's last day by which the extra must be purchased. Set to 0 to allow purchases through the final day. Applies at checkout and post-booking; admins can still add it manually past the deadline.

Eligible for installment payments

When enabled, the extra can be paid through the booking's installment plan, folding into the payment schedule like the rest of the booking. When off, it isn't included in installments.

How to add an extension

Extensions add fixed nights before or after the trip and shift the traveler's dates, so you can sell pre- and post-trip stays.

  1. Open the tour you want to configure and go to Inventory → Extras.

  2. Click Add extra, then choose Extension.

  3. Fill in the fields below and save.

Field

Description

Title
(Required)

The name of the extension shown to travelers during booking (e.g. 2 nights in Athens, Post-trip beach stay).

Description
(Required)

What the extension includes. Visible to travelers in the booking flow. Supports rich text formatting.

Position
(Required)

Whether the nights fall Pre-trip (before the tour starts) or Post-trip (after it ends).

Nights
(Required)

The fixed number of nights the extension adds — a whole number, 1 or more. Travelers can't change it.

Order
(Required)

When several extensions stack on the same side, the sequence they're applied in. Must be unique per side within a tour — a duplicate blocks the save.

Charge type

Always per traveler — extensions are priced per person and assigned to the travelers taking them. There's no per-booking option.

Booking deadline

Days before the trip's last day by which the extension must be purchased. Set to 0 to allow purchases through the final day. Applies at checkout and post-booking; admins can still add it manually past the deadline.

Eligible for installment payments

When enabled, the extension can be paid through the booking's installment plan, folding into the payment schedule like the rest of the booking. When off, it isn't included in installments

Example

The Weekend in Paris tour runs Sep 20–22, with three Post-trip extensions:

  • Loire Valley châteaux — Order 1; 2 nights

  • French Riviera — Order 2; 3 nights

  • Provence & lavender fields — Order 3; 2 nights

Whatever a traveler picks chains from the trip's end in Order — the ones they skip leave no gap:

  • All three → Loire Valley châteaux Sep 22–24, French Riviera Sep 24–27, Provence & lavender fields Sep 27–29 → trip ends Sep 29

  • Loire Valley châteaux + Provence & lavender fields (skips the French Riviera) → Sep 22–24, then Sep 24–26 → trip ends Sep 26

  • French Riviera + Provence & lavender fields (skips the Loire Valley châteaux) → Sep 22–25, then Sep 25–27 → trip ends Sep 27

⚠️Important
Extension dates are calculated automatically from each traveler's picks and Order. To change a traveler's dates, adjust them on the booking (order line → Edit travelers & dates).
