Booking Activities is a free WordPress plugin that lets activity providers publish event calendars and take bookings through forms or WooCommerce. It suits tour, class and workshop businesses that run their own WordPress site. The core plugin costs nothing; add-on passes renew at 129 to 349 EUR a year.

The bottom line

A strong free option for WordPress activity sellers; hosted tools are easier if you do not want to run a site.

What it really is

A free WordPress plugin that turns your site into a booking system for scheduled activities, with paid add-on passes.

Our take

For an activity business already on WordPress and WooCommerce, the free core covers a lot: repeats, group events, self-service changes and order sync. Budget for a pass if you need reminders by SMS, custom fields or price categories, and note the renewal price is higher than the first year.

Why we rate it

The free plugin already handles the hard parts of activity booking, and it is actively maintained.

The catch

You run WordPress and WooCommerce yourself, and pass renewals cost more than the first-year price.

Best for
Tour, class and workshop operators on WordPress
Shops already selling with WooCommerce
Multi-day courses and bundles
Not good for
Businesses without a WordPress site
One-on-one appointment booking
Friction report
Time to value
Install from WordPress.org in minutes; building calendars, forms and WooCommerce products takes an afternoon or more.
Scale breakpoint
Running several sites means the Advanced or Complete pass (259 or 349 EUR/yr for one site, more for extra sites).
Walled garden
Low: data lives in your WordPress database, with CSV and iCal export.
