That makes it harder to present the venue properly, collect the right information, and manage calendar edge cases.

The friction points this page solves
Why venue teams search for this category in the first place
Venue teams still need branded public pages
When the booking experience feels bolted on, it does not support the rest of the sales process well.
Operational follow-up matters after the slot is booked
Automated reminders and self-serve updates reduce manual clean-up after every new tour request.
