Visitor centre local listings & operator bookings
Visitor centres: the region bookable in one place. Listings, bookings and itineraries.
Brochure racks, operators rung for availability and events in a printed guide. We build listing and booking systems for visitor centres.
Looking for visitor centre booking software?
Visitor centres connect travellers with local operators. We build listings, bookings and itineraries that support local business.
Wollopit builds booking systems, itineraries, guest portals and websites for visitor centres around how your tours and trips actually run. We connect the booking platforms you already use, cut the commissions you don't need to pay and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can get back to looking after guests.
01The problems
What we hear from visitor centres
Does your visitor information centre have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.
Most visitor centres we talk to are paying commission on bookings they could take direct, then juggling manifests, waivers and weather calls by hand.

Everything under one roof
Software, websites and systems for visitor centres.
Whether you're starting fresh or upgrading what you've got, it's one team from the first sketch to the support call.
Custom software for visitor centres
Built around how your visitor information centre actually runs: local listings, bookings and the admin in between, in one system you own.
Websites for visitor centres
Fast, hand-built websites that rank for the searches your customers make and turn visits into enquiries, bookings or orders.
Visitor information centre system upgrades
Running on spreadsheets, old software or a platform you've outgrown? We move your data across and upgrade in stages so the business never stops.

06How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your visitor information centre: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
07Questions
FAQ
Things visitor centres ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can local operators update their own listings?
Yes. Operators can log in to update details and availability.
How much does it cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your visitor information centre. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
Can we keep selling through agents and OTAs?
Yes. We connect your direct bookings with the channels you use, so availability lines up everywhere and you push more people to book direct.
What happens when weather cancels a trip?
Guests can be messaged, rebooked or refunded from one screen instead of a night of phone calls.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most visitor centres we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
