“Between sightseeing cruises, bat tours, and four boats running on different schedules, we have a lot to juggle. Reservation Genie keeps every departure organized in one place, so managing a busy fleet that used to be a headache is now a breeze.”

Built for every departure

Boat Tour Management Tools

Fill every cruise, cap every vessel, collect payment up front, and keep guests in the loop — so you can focus on the water, not the back office.

Most-used

Bulk Actions

Master your passenger manifest in a few clicks. Say lightning rolls in half an hour before your 3 PM sightseeing cruise. Just check "Select All", open the bulk actions menu, and handle the whole departure in minutes. Every action sends an email and text to every selected guest automatically.

Edit Time Slots

Radar says the storm passes by 4? Push the whole departure back and move every passenger from 3:00 to 4:30 PM in a single update.

Send a Note

Boarding from a different dock while the marina clears out? Message the whole departure about the change in one shot.

Cancel All

If the lake stays rough, cancel the entire cruise and include a note inviting everyone to rebook another afternoon.

Refund All

Can't rebook them? Refund every passenger without leaving Reservation Genie. And unlike other platforms, we refund our $3 per-reservation convenience fee right along with it.

Waivers Signed Before They Board

Guests receive a waiver link the moment they book a seat — no chasing paper at the dock, no separate system, no follow-up needed.

Auto-sent on booking

Waiver links go out automatically via email and text when a reservation is created — no manual steps.

Minors fully supported

Guests sign for themselves, for minors in their party, or both — with per-minor information captured separately.

Full audit trail

Drawn signature, signer name, IP address, and exact waiver text stored permanently with every reservation.

Frequently asked questions

It replaces the phone-and-paper shuffle — guests buy tickets online 24/7, pick a departure, and pay up front, while you manage cruise schedules, per-vessel capacity, and automatic reminders from one place.

Yes. Guests can browse your upcoming departures and pay securely online 24/7, and you receive an instant booking with payment collected up front.

Use bulk actions to reschedule, message, or refund an entire departure at once. Every guest is automatically notified by email and text.

Absolutely. Each vessel gets its own departures and capacity — run daily sightseeing cruises on your flagship while smaller boats handle charters — and a cruise stops selling the moment it's full.
