A Cultural Space with Modern Challenges
The Jardines de Alfabia, located in the Serra de Tramuntana (Mallorca), are a historical and natural complex that combines architecture, heritage, and nature in one space. Each year, thousands of visitors walk its paths, fountains, and corners, making it one of the most important cultural attractions on the island.
Like many cultural spaces, they faced the challenge of digitizing ticketing in tourist environments: managing large volumes of visitors efficiently, avoiding queues at the ticket office, integrating OTA bookings, and improving the customer experience from the first contact.
The Challenge of Jardines de Alfabia
Before digitalization, ticket office management was manual and inefficient. Long queues affected the visitor experience, access was not optimized, and the internal team had to dedicate a lot of time to administrative tasks.
Furthermore, they needed to integrate online booking from OTAs and have a solution that centralized operations in a single system. A new objective was added to this challenge: managing a local product store that they had just opened on the premises, which required an adapted module for in-person and e-commerce sales.
The venntur Solution
With our booking engine and B.E. ecosystem, we implemented an integral solution that transformed their operations:
- A QR code online ticketing system was implemented, allowing visitors to buy tickets in advance and acces the venue more quickly.
- A touchscreen POS with management software was installed at the ticket office, capable of processing card or cash payments and registering ticket and product sales.
- We incorporated portable QR readers that allowed agile access validation, avoiding congestion at entrances.
- QR code signs were placed in the waiting area, so visitors could buy tickets from their mobile phones while queuing.
- For the souvenir shop, we added an e-commerce module connected to the POS, with which they manage sales of physical products and tickets from the same platform.
- We automated the management of external bookings from platforms such as Tour2b and GetYourGuide, eliminating manual processes and reducing the operational load of the team.
All of this was integrated into the venntur platform, guaranteeing centralized, agile, and secure management.
