Qualify, Convert & Support Travellers 24/7

A conversational AI agent for tour operators lets travellers ask and get instant responses about your trip offers in simple, everyday language. It also turns inbound enquiries into ready-to-send proposals. Concretely, a conversational AI agent like Maya answers trip questions on your website, WhatsApp, and social channels using your real departure times, prices, and availability, and gets email replies ready for your team to send. It works pre-booking and post-booking, and understands the travel context of each conversation.

Tour operators are the largest group in Maya's client base of 35+ travel companies. They include Best Arctic (Norway), TourTailors (Portugal) and its brand Kingfisher Tours (Egypt), Le Vélo Voyageur, Aktief Ski, Active Golf, and Runners Adventures.

A conversational AI agent like Maya has its data architecture built precisely for the complexities of travel. It learns from your consultants' own product knowledge, and every answer is validated against your trip database and knowledge centre before it is sent. Answers include departure dates, availability, pricing, inclusions, visa and document requirements. If the answer is not in your approved content, Maya does not invent one — it flags it to your team internally as a knowledge gap. For tour operators whose credibility rests on being the go-to operator for a destination, that accuracy grounding is essential to provide an even better customer experience.

No, one account can run multiple brands, each with its own content scope, trips, FAQs, booking links, branding colours, styling and tone of voice, so a traveller on your Nordic brand never gets answers about your cycling brand. Travelbase runs Maya across a multi-brand adventure portfolio; Zuiderhuis and Noorderhuis operate as distinct propositions in the same group. For tour operators in travel who grow by launching or acquiring specialist labels, this avoids reconfiguring a tool per brand.

During the booking season, the same questions surface many times over, in several languages, and probably a good number of times outside office hours. A conversational AI agent built for travel, like Maya, answers incoming messages right away, with your consultants' own product knowledge behind every reply. Your specialists stay on the high-value conversations for the whole peak, at the same headcount.

An AI agent built for travel turns travel agent expertise into something the whole company can draw on instantly. Maya's internal AI workspace makes trip details, supplier arrangements, policies, visa rules, process documentation, and more, easily searchable, in plain language. A first-season consultant can answer with the same depth as your most experienced specialist, and that same knowledge powers the 24/7 multilingual agent travellers talk to on your website and WhatsApp.

Most tour operators see consistent results in the first quarter after implementing Maya: more qualified leads, faster proposals and reclaimed consultant hours. Travelbase: +30% booking growth reported in its Lapland Travel pilot without adding headcount, 75% of Maya-generated email drafts used by the team, and a 35% cut in handle time for emails in scope. Noorderhuis: easier information discovery and a lower barrier to first contact, which shortens the path from question to proposal request. Zuiderhuis started with generative search so both travellers and staff could find the right trip in a catalogue-rich environment.
