The website's grade
Some AI assistants are turned away by Bus Tours Charters's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Bókun.

After the top fixes
With the two fixes above (No tickets and prices found; The server turns AI crawlers away at the door), the score would be about 87.7%. That would be 3rd of 947 in Melbourne tours, attractions and museums, up from 134th.
Peers are the businesses in the same index that have a reachable site, using the latest scan of each. The rank comes from the index's current ranking.
What to fix first
- No tickets and prices found +7 points
Agents answer 'what does it cost and when?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with tickets, times and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. How to fix it
- The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +3.3 points
Requests as GPTBot (http_429) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. How to fix it

Already right
- robots.txt lets AI crawlers in No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- Structured data found (LocalBusiness) address, phone, opening hours
- Tickets through bokun on your own domain There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- Bókun works with agents through its partners Bókun lists no traveller terms; its API terms have no bot clause and let developers use the API only to build applications for a vendor's use under a Bókun partner or services agreement. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://www.bokun.io/legal/api-terms. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
