Tourwriter

## What is Tourwriter?

Tourwriter is the end-to-end operating system built specifically for boutique tour operators and DMCs who craft bespoke, multi-day itineraries. We bridge the gap between stunning visual proposals and rigorous back-office management. While other tools just "show" the trip, Tourwriter prices it. Load your unique supplier network directly into a secure CRM. Drag and drop inventory into our itinerary builder, and watch as margins, commissions, and taxes calculate automatically in real-time. Eliminate the risk of manual errors and ensure every quote is profitable. Send mobile-friendly, digital proposals that truly showcase your expertise and boost brand image. When the client says "yes," convert that itinerary into supplier booking requests and invoices instantly. From inquiry to departure, manage the entire lifecycle in one "single source of truth". Built for teams of 2–50 who value craft over volume. Stop managing chaos. Start scaling your business without losing your personal touch.

Love Tourwriter and especially love that the team listens to their customers and provides regular updates that make us say "yay" instead "oh gosh what changed now".

Pros

Allows us to keep all our info in one place and create beautiful custom itineraries faster and more easily. Flexible and user friendly.

Cons

Hard to undo if you make a mistake or delete something by accident - history is not stored (minor issue)

Tourwriter makes searching through suppliers and products very quick and easy, freeing our team to focus on tailoring the exact itinerary for each client. Recommended for bespoke operators looking to scale without losing personal touch.

Cons

Sometimes some much-needed upgrades take a while to get launched, but the platform where users can leave direct feedback to the TW team is very useful.

I have been using some form of Tourwriter since 2019 and I have yet to find a competitor in this space that can even offer a similar level in quality compared to what Tourwriter can offer. Currently, they offer the best product in this market.

Pros

I've spoken with almost every company that offers digital itineraries and Tourwriter has the best one on the market.

Cons

While the application has improved every year since I started working with Tourwriter, more customizability would always be appreciated.

Tourwriter is a powerful, professional platform that makes itinerary design and travel planning seamless. I appreciate how polished and client-ready the proposals look, and the software’s ability to store supplier information and automate pricing saves me valuable time. Its customization options make it easy to align itineraries with my brand, and while it takes a little time to learn, the investment is worth it for the level of detail and professionalism it delivers. Overall, Tourwriter is an excellent choice for growing travel businesses that want to create impressive, tailored experiences for their clients.

Pros

All-in-one itinerary builder – Easy to create polished, client-facing itineraries and proposals. Custom branding – Ability to showcase your own logo, colors, and branding for a professional look. Supplier and product library – Stores your preferred accommodations, activities, and transport details for quick itinerary building. Automation – Reduces repetitive tasks by automating pricing, margins, and availability checks. CRM features – Keeps track of clients, suppliers, and bookings in one place. Collaboration tools – Enables teamwork if you’re working with multiple agents or assistants. Integration with booking systems – Helps manage bookings and reduces manual input errors. Scalable for growth – Good for small operators scaling up or agencies handling complex itineraries. Visual appeal – Produces visually appealing itineraries that impress clients. Guidance - Having Jess on hand whenever I needed assistance to further grow my knowledge on the system

Cons

Not getting to use this system sooner! I struggled to get my head around the software at first as it’s such a well versed system. 1 call with Jess and I was up and running.

Tourwriter is the only system that gives us the ability to deeply customise our itineraries and manage our end-to-end operations efficiently. The Xero integration saves us hours, and the flexibility to tailor every client experience is unmatched. After over 20 years in business, it’s become our backbone.

Pros

We value how visually rich the itinerary presentation is while also pulling on a strong back-end allowing us to manage all the booking elements in an itinerary. We find the team at Tourwriter responsive to our needs and appreciate how they listen to our development wish list.

Cons

Biggest frustration is still loading rates each season but we know Tourwriter understands this and is always looking at ways to solve this.

I have been working with them about 6 years ago and Tour Writer has simplified my daily tasks designing itineraries, best thing is that they keep updating and improving the system to users, they also listen to our suggestions.

Pros

Availability of the sales team, support team, implementation was very easy!

Cons

Maybe at first the system did not have too many colors, it was only gray, black, white tones.

My overall experience with Tourwriter has been excellent. Not only is it an invaluable product for a tour agency, the customer support they offer is top notch.

Pros

The product is easy to use and is constantly being improved by Tourwriter, introducing new features. I like that Tourwriter can do everything for me in one place, eliminating the need for multiple programs.

Cons

There is nothing I would consider a con about Tourwriter. A minor point, especially being in India where internet connection can be erratic, is possibly that there isn't an offline version. When I'm without internet or travelling on a long haul flight for example, I can't attend to my work in the way I did when using Word and Excel. However, this is a minor concern and I would never go back to those draconian days!
