30Atours.com helps visitors discover and book local activities, beach rentals and tours in South Walton.

“There are so many fun things to do here, but learning about all of the available options can be a real challenge for visitors,” said The 30A Company’s Mike Ragsdale. “The new 30A Tours platform connects millions of 30A fans directly with local businesses that offer high-quality tours and activities.”

30Atours.com features instant online reservations for fishing charters, eco tours, surf camps, board and bike rentals, beach bonfires, airport transportation, horseback riding, beach photography sessions, dinner cruises, painting classes, golf reservations, snorkeling excursions, dolphin tours and more. As the site continues to grow, it will also offer concert and event tickets, hotel rooms, cooking and painting classes and many other activities.

“Local businesses only pay a commission when a reservation is made through 30Atours.com, so there’s no risk to our partners,” said Ragsdale.

The new 30A Tours booking engine is powered by TripShock, who provides account support for participating partners.

“Listings in most 30A Tours categories are limited to five partners,” said TripShock CEO Greg Fisher. “We limit the number of companies in each category so that we can drive high-quality bookings to 30A’s partners every day.”

In addition to 30Atours.com, the new booking engine is integrated across the entire 30A network, including 30A.com, SouthWalton.com and 30A’s free mobile apps for iPhone, iPad and Android users. The new booking engine will also soon replace other 30A websites such as 30Ahotels.com and 30Afishingcharters.com.

“Any time visitors are using one of 30A’s websites to learn about a local event or activity, they’re now able to instantly make their reservations,” said Ragsdale. “30A Tours is now the definitive source for fun activities that guests can enjoy while here on vacation.”
