Travel websites that show the seats still left

A trip list changes every week: one trip sells out, another is canceled, a new one appears because a bus came free. Your site shows every trip with the seats still left, you change it yourself, and bookings come in without a card up front.

Where it goes wrong today

1

A trip list that goes out of date

When every new date or price has to go through the web designer, one of two things happens: you pay for small changes every month, or the list stops matching reality and people stop trusting it.

2

Bookings that depend on someone picking up

If seats are booked only by phone, every evening call nobody answered can be a seat that went to another tour, and nothing tells you it happened.

3

Trips that live two days on Facebook

A post in a group gets attention for a day or two, then sinks. It does not turn up in search, and the people who do see it ask the same questions in the comments: what does it cost, where does the bus leave from, is there still room.

What your site does

Trip pages with the seats left, kept up by you

Every trip gets its own page with the dates, the price, what is included, the program and the departure point. You set the number of seats left in your own admin panel, and a full trip switches to sold out instead of disappearing. The traveler reserves with a name, a phone number and how many are coming, with no card needed if that is how you work, and gets a confirmation email. Past trips stay up with their photos, which shows the trips really happen.

How a customer uses it

  1. Open a trip from the list, or from a link you posted in a Facebook group.
  2. See the dates, the price, what is included, the program and how many seats are left.
  3. Reserve with a name, phone, email and the number of travelers. No card needed if you take payment later.
  4. Get a confirmation email. The booking reaches your inbox and your admin panel right away.

What your site can include

  • A page for each trip, with its own link to share
  • An admin panel where you add trips and change dates, prices and seats left
  • Booking requests with no prepayment, and a confirmation email to the traveler
  • Full trips marked sold out, with a waitlist if you want one
  • Past trips kept with their photos and real reviews from travelers
  • Your seller of travel registration number on every page, if your state requires one
  • Gift vouchers buyers fill in and print themselves
  • Google Maps and the SEO basics, on your own domain with SSL

We agree what goes into your site on the 15 minute call, and the fixed price covers all of it.

Questions owners ask

Can I really add trips myself?

Yes. The admin panel holds only the fields you actually change: trips, dates, prices, seats left, photos and reviews. Nobody has to wait for us, and a new trip can go up the same evening you plan it.

Do I need online payments if travelers pay later?

Not necessarily. A payment system adds a step and its own fees, and if your travelers reserve a seat and settle up later, a booking form with no card works fine. Online payment can be added later, when it solves a real problem.

What about seller of travel rules?

Check your state's rules. California, for example, requires sellers of travel to register with the Attorney General and to show the registration number on all advertising. If your state has a rule like that, the number goes in the footer of every page.

What does a travel agency website cost?

A fixed price, agreed on a 15 minute call before any work starts, and the admin panel is part of it. You pay once and the site is yours, on your own domain with SSL. The first version is free, on your phone in 2 days, and if it is not for you, you owe nothing.

Have you built a site for a tour company?

Yes, one: the bus tour organizer above, in Utena, Lithuania. We have no US clients so far. Robertas, who runs builtlit, is in the Chicago area until November 18, 2026 and happy to meet you in person.
