To ask for Google reviews after a tour, send a short, personal thank-you with the direct review link. Invite an honest account of the experience, without asking for a particular rating. Choose a moment after the activity has finished, when the guest can decide freely whether to respond.<\/p>\n
The useful starting point is a repeatable process: the correct business listing, one approved message and one person responsible for sending it. A longer message or repeated reminders will not fix a broken link.<\/p>\n
Open your Google Business Profile and find the option to get more reviews. Copy the review link and test it on a phone. Check the business name and location, especially if you manage several branches. Google also provides a QR code. Its official instructions for review links and QR codes<\/a> explain the current steps.<\/p>\n A guest needs a Google Account to post. Explain this if someone gets stuck, but let them use their own account and write in their own words.<\/p>\n The following is a message template, not a customer testimonial. Replace the bracketed fields before sending:<\/p>\n Hi [first name], thank you for joining [activity] with [business]. If you would like to share your experience, you can leave an honest review here: [Google review link]. Your feedback helps future travellers understand the activity. Thank you for your time!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Use the conversation already associated with the booking when appropriate. Check that the activity has actually finished and that no colleague has already sent the request. Do not insert a claim such as \u201cwe know you loved it\u201d; you are asking for the guest’s view.<\/p>\n Subject:<\/strong> Thank you for joining [activity]<\/p>\n Hi [first name], Keep the review link separate from sales offers and further booking links. A reader should understand the purpose without scrolling through a promotion.<\/p>\n Invite guests based on a completed experience, rather than whether they gave a positive private score. Google’s review policies<\/a> prohibit incentives, selective requests for positive reviews and pressure over the rating or content. Avoid discounts, gifts, requested five-star ratings and suggested wording for the review itself.<\/p>\n Keep a simple internal record: booking reference, activity date, request date and staff member. If the guest has already responded or asks not to receive further messages, stop the follow-up. There is no universal number of reminders that suits every business.<\/p>\n Read the feedback and use recurring practical points to improve your meeting-point instructions, activity description or guest communications. A review request and displaying reviews on your website are separate steps. Before asking again, check reviews missing from the website<\/a> even though they already appear on Google. If guests repeatedly mention unclear times or meeting points, use that feedback to improve the confirmation your guest receives<\/a>.<\/p>\n For the display step, follow our guide to adding Google reviews to a tour website<\/a>. TurIA Reviews<\/a> has a permanent Free plan for showing reviews; that plan does not include review-request sending. The templates above can be used in your own normal communications. For the operation before the activity, explore TurIA\u2019s approach to booking management for tours<\/a>; review requests are a separate process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Use neutral WhatsApp and email templates to ask tour guests for genuine Google reviews.
