The live preview shows what a traveler would see: your trip page, the first two checkout steps and the traveler portal. It works on drafts, and it never creates a booking or charges a card.
Open the preview
Go to Settings → Experiences and open the experience.
In the Live preview bar, click Trip page, Booking, Payment or Traveler portal.
The preview opens full screen. Use the tabs at the top to move between the four views.
Click the × to go back. Your form is untouched: opening a preview saves nothing.
What each tab shows
Tab | Shows |
Trip page | Your public trip page, with a sample upcoming departure if you sell fixed dates. |
Booking | The first checkout step, for a sample party of at least two travelers. |
Payment | The second checkout step, with your real prices, add-ons, payment schedule and cancellation policy. |
Traveler portal | The portal for a sample confirmed booking, with the deposit paid if the experience uses a payment plan. |
Preview unsaved changes
On the Edit page, the preview shows your form as it is right now, including changes and photos you have not saved. On the view page, it shows the saved experience.
The preview is a snapshot taken when you open it. It does not update as you type. Close it and open it again to see later edits.
A preview of unsaved changes expires 30 minutes after you open it, and only you can load it. If you see "Preview expired", close the preview and open it again.
What happens next
The preview is for looking only. You can scroll, but clicks and typing do nothing.
When everything looks right, publish the experience.

Why do the Booking, Payment and Traveler portal tabs show a message instead of a preview?
There is nothing to book yet. Add at least one package (multi-day tour) or participant type (day tour), and turn on fixed departures or on-request booking. The message names what is missing. The Trip page tab still works.
