Guides answer your request themselves

A guide for your group in 11 minutes, not three days of chat.

BookingCore is where tour operators and guides find each other. Say where, when and in which language you need a guide — the ones who are free answer themselves. No phone rounds, no ten group chats.

A word from the initiator

BookingCore helps guides become more visible and stronger, and build a career in today's tourism with confidence

Running a good tour is no longer enough. What comes next is your name, your circle of colleagues and your room to grow. The Silk Road Travel Academy guide school built BookingCore as a home for guides: here experience is visible at a glance, and tour operators come to you.

A tour ends at sunset by the Registan. The profession does not. I lead groups myself, and I teach the ones who will lead them tomorrow. And I know this for certain: work comes to a guide by name, not by luck. BookingCore builds that name piece by piece — experience, languages, reviews, the warm words of every group — and shows it to agencies in full. Ready to grow? You belong here.

Silk Road Travel Academy

Samarkand · Registan, Ulugbek Madrasah

The school trains guides for Samarkand and Shahrisabz and route guides across the country, plus hospitality professionals and staff for tour operators. Module lectures, seminars, field visits to the monuments and a final exam: graduates receive a state-standard diploma and enter the national guide registry. The academy exists to close the staffing gap in Uzbek tourism and raise the quality of service.

How the service helps a guide

From the diploma to the first groups.

First bookings straight after the academy

We bring a graduate in right after the exam — the first group arrives while everything is still fresh.

Work comes to you

No more asking for groups across ten chats. Matching requests arrive by your city, language and free days.

Your diploma is visible to operators

We check the diploma, licence and languages ourselves. The badge shows in search, so newcomers get picked for their training, not their contacts.

Calendar, price and paperwork

Free days are visible to operators right away, and a booked day is never offered to anyone else. The price is locked on confirmation and the paperwork fills itself in.

Guides on the platform

Living profiles, not rows in a spreadsheet

A tour operator picks a guide by a detailed profile, rating and client reviews. That is why it pays to fill the profile in on time and keep it current: the fuller the profile and the higher the rating, the more trust — and the more new orders.

What's inside

Everything about a tour in one place

Requests, free dates, guides and money — one page instead of six tabs and a spreadsheet.

The guide finds you

Say where and when you need a guide. We show the ones who are free and speak the language. First reply in about five minutes.

A calendar of trips

Free dates, bookings and your Google Calendar in one grid. If a day already has a booking, the system simply will not let a second one land on it.

Guides we've met

We look at the diploma, licence and languages ourselves. A checked guide carries a badge in search.

Talk in the right place

Everything about the trip stays with the booking, not in someone's personal phone. Reminders come by Telegram and email.

Money and paperwork

The price is agreed and written down when the trip is confirmed. Invoices and acts fill themselves in.

See how the season is going

Which guides are idle, how many requests found a guide, which months are busy. One screen shows where you are losing groups.

Install

The guide cabinet on your phone

It installs straight from the browser — no App Store, no Google Play, no manual updates. Two minutes and the icon sits on your home screen.

  1. 1

    Open guide.bookingcore.app in Chrome — that is the browser Android installs apps from.

  2. 2

    Tap the menu button — three dots in the top right corner — and choose “Install app”.

  3. 3

    Confirm, and the icon appears on your home screen next to the rest.

Open the guide cabinet

It is the same cabinet, not a separate program: it updates itself and keeps you signed in.
