Codeeo handles tourism booking website development in Jeddah for operators who want visitors to pick a date, see what is left, pay in riyals and get a confirmed booking without waiting for a reply on WhatsApp. Reef dives off Obhur, sunset charters along the coast, evening walks through historic Al Balad and day packages for travellers passing through King Abdulaziz International Airport each need their own rules. We build the site, the booking engine and the payment flow around those rules, in Arabic first with English beside it.
Jeddah sells to a mixed crowd: residents booking for the Friday and Saturday weekend, Umrah travellers with a spare day, cruise passengers at the port and GCC visitors during Jeddah Season. A direct booking site lets you serve all of them at your own price and keep the guest record.

What the Jeddah booking platform includes
Most Jeddah operators start with a brochure site and a phone number, then lose bookings at the moment a visitor asks whether Saturday morning still has space. A booking platform answers that question itself. It knows how many divers the boat can take, how many guides speak English, which marina the trip leaves from and how late a guest can cancel.
The capabilities below are the ones we see Jeddah sea and heritage operators need most. We pick the set that fits your products in discovery, then connect them so a booking moves from the public page to payment, e-invoice, confirmation message and the morning manifest without anyone copying details by hand. The admin side is built for the people who answer the phone at the marina or meet guests at Bab Makkah, not for developers, so changes to a departure take a minute instead of a call to an agency.
Each departure draws on a vessel, a skipper and, for dive trips, instructors with a set ratio of divers to guides. The calendar closes a slot when any of those runs out, and lets you hold back seats for walk in guests or partner hotels along the Corniche.
No overbooked boats and no empty seats you forgot to open.
When wind on the Red Sea makes a trip unsafe, staff mark the departure as on hold from the admin. Booked guests receive a message offering a new date or a refund, and the slot stops selling until the captain clears it.
Cancellations handled in one action instead of fifty phone calls.
Checkout asks only what the trip needs: certification level and last dive date for divers, swimming ability for snorkellers, ages for children, and equipment sizes for rental gear. Waivers are accepted online and stored against the booking.
Briefings start on time because the paperwork is already done.
Tourism online payment integration in Jeddah through a SAMA licensed gateway: mada cards, Apple Pay, STC Bank, Visa and Mastercard, plus Tabby or Tamara instalments for higher value private charters. International cards work for visitors from abroad, with the amount shown and charged in riyals.
Guests pay with what is already on their phone.
A private yacht for a family or a company outing rarely has a fixed price. The site takes the request, your team returns a quote by link, and the guest pays a deposit to lock the date with the balance collected before boarding.
Large bookings confirmed without chasing bank transfers.
Guests choose a pickup from hotels in Al Hamra, Al Rawdah, Obhur and near the airport, or a meeting point at the marina. Pickup times are calculated per zone and printed on the confirmation and the driver list.
Drivers know who to collect, where and when.
Timed entry for Al Balad walking tours and evening experiences, with group size limits, guide language choice and QR tickets that guides scan from their phone at the meeting point.
Walks run at the right size with the right guide.
Hotel concierges on the Corniche and in Obhur can log in, see live availability and book on behalf of their guests, either paid by the guest at checkout or settled on a monthly statement. Each partner sees only its own bookings, and you set a commission or net rate per account.
Hotel referrals arrive as confirmed bookings, not phone messages.
Each paid booking produces a VAT compliant e-invoice through a Fatoora integrated invoicing system, with simplified invoices for individuals and full tax invoices for companies booking team days.
Finance closes the month without rebuilding invoices.
Tomorrow's departures, guest counts, special requests, unpaid balances and pickup lists in one screen, with exports for the captain and the dive desk.
The morning starts with a complete list, not a group chat.
Who this is for
A Jeddah booking site is shaped by what you sell. Sea trips depend on weather and vessel capacity, heritage walks on guides and group size, and transit packages on flight times. These are the starting points we meet most often. Every project begins with a discovery call by video, where we look at how bookings reach you today and which ones you lose.
You run boats out of Obhur to the reefs and sell to residents, expatriate divers and visitors. Your current process is a form, a spreadsheet and many messages. We build a booking site with course and trip products, certification checks, gear rental add ons and weather holds, so your instructors spend the day in the water rather than on the phone. Residents who dived with you in winter can be reminded when conditions suit them again, with consent recorded.
Course bookings and fun dives can share one calendar.
Your products are hourly or half day charters with catering and extras. Prices change with the vessel, the day and the season, and every booking needs a deposit. We build a request and quote flow alongside instant booking for standard trips, with deposits, balances and cancellation rules written into the checkout so nobody argues about them later. Your team can also block a vessel for maintenance in one click, and the site stops offering it until it is back.
You guide groups through Al Balad, its coral stone houses and old souqs, and along the Corniche. Demand peaks in the cooler months and during events. The site sells fixed departures and private tours by language, manages guide allocation and sends meeting point directions in Arabic and English with a map pin that works in the narrow lanes. Private tours for families can be requested with a preferred time and confirmed by your team once a guide is free.
Many visitors land at King Abdulaziz International Airport on their way to Makkah or home again, and some have a free day. We build packages that start from the flight time, combine a transfer, a city tour and a meal, and confirm instantly so a traveller can book from the arrivals hall. Luggage storage and a return transfer can be sold as add ons on the same order.
Flight based start times prevent bookings that cannot work.
How we work together
Most operators start with a fixed scope first release covering their core trips and payments, then keep a monthly retainer for new products, season changes and reporting. Larger groups that run several brands or locations sometimes take a dedicated team. For Jeddah clients, discovery, design reviews and training run by video call; our team of 80+ works across Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi, and in person meetings are available in Riyadh.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We choose the stack around your products and team: a custom booking engine where your rules are unusual, or a proven commerce platform extended where they are not. Hosting and data location are agreed against PDPL requirements, security follows NCA guidance, and pages are built light enough to load quickly on mobile data at a busy marina.

It depends on how many products and rules you sell, and we fix the plan in discovery.
A site for a handful of fixed departures with card and wallet payments is a smaller build than one with private charter quotes, dive certification checks, multiple vessels and agent accounts. Gateway approval and e-invoicing setup also take time on your side. After discovery we write down the scope, the order of releases and the dates, so you know when the first version can take bookings before the busy months on the coast.
