Tour add-ons: sell paid extras with your tours
An add-on is a paid extra customers can choose when they book a tour, such as lunch, a bike or a photo package. Its price is added to the booking.
Two kinds of add-ons
| Kind | Customers | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Per person (the default) | Switch it on or off | Priced like a tour, for the whole party |
| Customer can choose quantity | Choose how many, with − and + | A price per unit, times the quantity |
Age group discounts don't apply to an add-on sold by quantity: its units are things, not passengers.

Offering it on a tour
Open the tour under Tours → Manage, click Add-ons, then Add add-on, and save the tour. Customers see an add-on when the tour, or the variant they chose, offers it for the kind of booking they make.
Add-ons on online travel agencies
GetYourGuide offers your add-ons sold by quantity, each under the GetYourGuide category you choose in the add-on. Civitatis and the other OCTO resellers don't offer add-ons as extras.
