Fondo
Treak Cliff Cavern is a show cave visitor attraction, with a working mine extracting rare ornamental fluorite called Blue John Stone. They mine, process, manufacture and retail jewellery and ornamental items, both online and in their onsite shop. They offer self-guided tours of the cave, and various experiences focused around the crafting of the Blue John Stone.
El reto
Just a few years ago, Treak Cliff Cavern lacked any online booking functionality on their website. Their group bookings relied solely on telephone or email, highlighting the urgent need for an automated online booking system to advance the company's development.
This necessity became even more pronounced during the onset of the pandemic when government restrictions rendered guided tours unfeasible, prompting the shift to self-guided tours for continued operations. Being a part of the ENPEC of Experiences further emphasised the crucial need for an online booking capability.
Treak Cliff Cavern initially turned to a competitor system to address this need. However, they encountered challenges, finding them overly complicated and lacking the flexibility to make necessary changes independently.
Cómo ayudamos
After a rigorous exploration of various booking systems, the Treak Cliff Cavern team embraced Beyonk based on the recommendation. They found the online booking solution to be remarkably user-friendly, intuitive, and equipped with flexible options. The support team stood out for their friendliness and readiness to address queries.
The seamless signing-up process and effortless integration of Beyonk's software into their website eliminated hurdles. The software's features provided Treak Cliff Cavern with the flexibility to tailor their operations precisely to their needs. As Treak Cliff Cavern evolved their visits and experiences, Beyonk were able to parallel this growth by continuously deploying new client-focused features.
Beyonk emerged as the recommended solution for Treak Cliff Cavern through the endorsement of Visit Peak District’s Marketing team, their trusted partners.
Because we work closely with MPD&D, we went with their recommendation and haven’t looked back. Using Beyonk with our self-guided tours has been more successful and popular than I hoped. This is only a starting point, and we will be developing more ‘products’ in the future, using Beyonk to promote and control how visitors book.
