Answers to Common Questions

Making a booking & Bookme FAQs

How does Bookme work?

All that’s required to check in for your booking is your name and booking reference. Your booking confirmation email contains all the details you need to know for check-in and for your booking. Please make sure you read your confirmation email carefully, and if you have any questions you will be able to contact the operator directly using the details provided in your confirmation email.

To review a product on Bookme you must have 'Booked, Paid, & Participated'. If you book a product through Bookme you will automatically be sent an exclusive link after your booking date to leave a review and rating for that product. If you haven’t received this email please check your junk mail folder before notifying us at [email protected]

Each operator has their own login to manage availability so new deals can be made available at any time.

If you are looking for deals around specific dates that aren’t yet showing on the home page you can still check current availability on forward dates for products you are interested in.

Often there are deals available that are not yet promoted on the home page. To check prices offered for future dates first select the product you are interested in, then scroll down to the product booking table where you can move across future dates to check and book.

Availability is often limited for activities and attractions especially during peak times. Allocations can sometimes be increased so if you require more spaces for a certain product at a certain time please feel free to contact us and we will do our best for you.

Please note the best way to ensure availability of a ‘must do’ activity so that you don’t miss out is to book well in advance for peak times.

If the product you are booking allows for toddlers to participate for free, please just include the number of toddlers you wish to take with you under the ‘special requirements’ section of the booking form as you proceed to checkout.
