JTT for Sightseeing Tours
More 5★ reviews and cashless, optional tips — $ / €0 cost to your company
Your guides create memorable moments—yet most guests finish a tour with no cash and no easy way to say "thanks." With JTT, guests scan a QR at the goodbye moment, tip in seconds (no app), and leave a quick rating. 4–5★ guests are routed to your chosen review platform; 1–3★ feedback stays private so you can fix issues quietly.
Your cost: $ / €0. A small JTT platform fee and card processing fees are shown transparently to the guest before they pay. No POS changes.
Primary outcomes
  • More 4–5★ public reviews (Google, TripAdvisor, Yelp, Booking.com — one active at a time)
  • Optional digital tips for guides or pooled teams — no cash handling, no awkwardness
  • Private, actionable feedback for coaching and service recovery

Best placement practices (what actually drives tips & reviews)
Walking Tours
  • Guide lanyard/badge QR + finish-point sign (plaza/landmark bench).
  • Secondary: meeting-point poster reminding guests for post-tour tip & review.
Bus / Coach / Hop-On Hop-Off
  • Exit door sticker at the rear/front doors + first-row seat-back card (high dwell).
  • Guide mic stand or clipboard placard for end-of-tour remarks.
Boat / River / Harbor Cruises
  • Gangway or dock placard at disembark.
  • Bar counter tent if on-board service is provided; upper-deck rail placard (matte, no glare).
Panoramic Drives / Scenic Stops
  • Photo-stop easel sign where the final group picture is taken.
  • Vehicle exit placard as guests reboard for the last time.
Design rules
  • High contrast, generous whitespace, headline "Scan to tip — no app", short URL under the QR.
  • Matte finish (avoid glare); minimum QR 5–7 cm / 2–3 in; larger for distance/low light.
  • Weather-proof versions (laminated/foam board) for outdoor use.
Suggested staff one-liners (non-pushy, one time)
Deliver once at the thank-you moment. Smile, point once, move on.
Guide (group close-out)
"If you enjoyed the tour, you can scan here to leave a quick tip—totally optional. Thank you for joining us!"
Driver / Host (vehicle)
"Thanks for riding with us—there's a QR by the exit if you'd like to leave a tip for the team."
Skipper / Crew (boat)
"We hope you had a great cruise—there's a small QR at the gangway if you'd like to leave a tip."
DOs:
  • smile
  • keep it brief
  • point once
  • accept "no" gracefully
DON'Ts:
  • don't repeat
  • don't suggest amounts
  • don't handle the guest's phone
Team vs individual tips (you choose)
Team / pooled
Guide Team, Driver + Guide Team, Boat Crew
  • Easiest start; distributes fairly across shared roles.
Individual attribution
Each guide has a personal QR (lanyard/clipboard).
  • Great for recognition and seasonal leaderboards.
Many operators mix both: a team QR at the exit plus individual lanyards for guides. Funds can settle to the business; you distribute per your policy. JTT provides rails & reporting; tip allocation/compliance remain with you.

FAQs (sightseeing tours)
Does this replace our POS or booking system?
No—JTT sits alongside your current setup. Keep your POS/booking unchanged.
Who pays fees?
The guest. They see a transparent breakdown before paying. JTT is $ / €0 for your company.
Multiple departures/vehicles per day?
Create one QR per guide or per vehicle/route. Your dashboard shows totals by endpoint.
Offline areas?
Guests can scan and tip when back in coverage (include a short URL on exit/plaza signs).
Is this GDPR/PCI friendly?
Payments are processed by a PCI-compliant provider; JTT doesn't store card numbers and doesn't show guest PII to staff. (General info; not legal advice.)
Which review platform first?
Tourist markets often benefit most from TripAdvisor or Google. You can switch anytime (one active at a time).
