How do I create and publish a tour with the Tour Builder?
If you want to offer your own experiences on Keyguides Connect, the Tour Builder is your starting point. It’s available to all guides – even on the free plan – and lets you create up to 8 tours with a premium subscription.
All tours are published on your public profile and can be booked directly by guests.
💬 Where do I find the Tour Builder?
Log in to your Keyguides Connect dashboard and go to “Tours” in the left-hand menu.
Here, you can start a new tour, continue editing drafts, or manage your existing ones.
🧠 Meet Nova – Your AI Tour Builder Assistant
When you start building a tour, you’ll be chatting with Nova, our friendly AI assistant. Nova helps you shape your tour by asking questions and suggesting:
Headlines and descriptions
What to include or highlight
Tips for structure, duration, and guest experience
Creative ideas for routes or special stops
Writing support if you’re stuck
You don’t need to have everything figured out — Nova is there to guide you as you build.
💡 Tip: Ask Nova things like:
“What’s a good title for a food walk in Lisbon?”
“Can you help me describe my wine tasting stop?”
“What’s a nice hidden spot I can add to my Old Town tour?”
