This article covers the following:

Adventure Bucket List allows you to connect your offerings and availabilities to TripAdvisor Experiences / Viator, allowing last-minute sales through their marketplace while you manage your availabilities and bookings through Adventure Bucket List.
​

Viator - A TripAdvisor Company, is an online marketplace for tours, activities, and
attractions for travelers. They reach 350 million travel planners every month through Viator, TripAdvisor, 3,000 affiliate partners and over 175,000 travel agents. Viator automatically shares your availability with TripAdvisor. When you become a Viator supplier, you automatically receive a “Book a Tour” or “Check Availability” button to your TripAdvisor page and vice versa.

To connect with TripAdvisor / Viator, you first need a contract and supplier account created. If you already have an account, skip to the next section. Otherwise, this is where you have to agree to their terms and conditions as well as negotiate a commission. Adventure Bucket List is not involved in this process, nor do we have any influence over their final decision.

Please select Adventure Bucket List as your reservation system, making easier for TripAdvisor / Viator to find you on the waiting list and map your activities.

🔔 You need an account with TripAdvisor in order to complete the integration. This involves creating an account and loading in your tours into their system. From there you will map the tours from their system to your Adventure Bucket List Account.

🔔 Viator does not use Adventure Bucket List to process payments, rather they process the payments directly through their own processors and then send this information to Adventure Bucket List. We then create the booking in the dashboard with the details entered.

🔔 The amount paid by the customer through Viator is different from the amount sent over to Adventure Bucket List. This is due to fees charged by Viator for using their service. Due to API restrictions, Adventure Bucket List does not have access to a breakdown of those fees and cannot display them anywhere in your account. Viator only provides the booking net amount that is the total amount payable to the supplier for one booking. As a result, you should use Viator for your reporting purposes when it comes to those bookings.

🔔 If you run into any issues while mapping the products in your TripAdvisor account, please contact your TripAdvisor contact for help.
