ForestRP — Digitising Nature Tourism

Digitising nature tourism!

Forest sector is underfunded which affects both its managing organization and forest dwelling communities and nature/eco-tourism is the best & sustainable source of additional income.

However, major OTAs offer a very simple booking system because of which, two core businesses in nature-tourism, forest reserves and adventure tourism (who offer various booking options with range of rates, combos and discounts), often lose ability to accept online reservations and attract more visitors or face hefty web development or subscription costs & with this, tourists are left with lack of information, booking from different sites and in worst case, getting scammed with counterfeit ticketing websites.

Our products to be launched soon:

Jabarkhet Nature Reserve path through forest

Prototype Testing!

Malay Oza, founder of ForestRP, recently approached us, Jabarkhet Nature Reserve, for a prototype testing of his Nature-Tourism reservation platform and Partner App. We found the idea of the dynamic reservation system and other app functionalities potentially useful. This solution could also be used by reserve managers as it could save web development and maintenance costs needed to get online reservations in most cases as of now and also help in managing direct reservations, tickets and invoices digitally making this a sustainable alternative.

We are happy to support ForestRP with its beta pilot launch in the near future.
