Tarn for kayak & paddle tours

Online booking for kayak and paddle tours.

Paddlers book a tour, pay, and sign their waivers online. You see every tour, guide, and waiver on one screen.

Your sunrise paddle, eco-tour, and sunset trip each get their own times, seats, and price. The calendar shows which tours are filling, who's guiding, and who still owes a waiver or a balance.

What Tarn handles

Waivers signed before anyone shows up

The waiver link goes out with the confirmation, and the person who booked gets reminders until everyone has signed. The manifest shows who's still missing one.

Guides on the schedule

Assign guides to each tour from the Schedule page. Every guide sees their day on their phone, along with who's on each trip.

Weather on your dashboard

The forecast at your launch shows up on the dashboard next to today's tours, so you can call a tour before guests drive out.

Your website, your Stripe account

The booking page goes on the site you already have. Payments run through your own Stripe account and pay out to your bank.

Common questions

Can different tours share one booking page?

Yes. Every tour lists on one booking page with its own schedule, price, and seats left.

Can people book the same day?

Yes. You can sell right up until a tour leaves, or stop online bookings a set time before it. Your crew can still book a walk-up.

Is there a monthly fee?

No. Tarn's fee is 3% per booking, dropping to 2% as you grow, so a rained-out week or a closed season costs nothing.
