Page builder, ATDW, search, maps and hosting, on one platform.
Your team runs the page builder; we run the hosting, security and upgrades underneath.
Six parts, built from what destinations ask for.
The page builder
A page builder with a library of content blocks, including Hero, Products, Product Map, Form and Custom HTML. Style Variants give every block several looks inside your theme. Live preview, version history, scheduled publishing, roles.
ATDW content, always current
40,000+ ATDW Products synced automatically, with your own editorial and imagery added alongside and Product tiers to control prominence. Clients typically report saving 10-20+ hours a fortnight on manual content work.
Search that keeps up
Search runs on Algolia and answers as Visitors type. It is typo-tolerant, so a misspelt town or half a word still finds what they meant, and faceted, so a tap or two cuts a long list of results down to the few that fit.
Three kinds of map
Three Mapbox map types: Region maps for geographic context, Product maps showing every Product within a radius, and Itinerary maps with roads and auto-calculated distance and time, or trails from GeoJSON.
Design that fits your destination
A bespoke theme for every client, built on Roam’s shared component library. You keep control of colour, typography, header and navigation style.
AWS and Cloudflare underneath
AWS hosting across multiple Availability Zones, Cloudflare CDN, DDoS protection and WAF, EdgeGuard failover and a 99.9% uptime SLA.

Edit and publish pages without raising a ticket.
Build a page from content blocks, drop in Products from your ATDW feed, swap a Style Variant and see the result before anyone else does. Version history rolls a page back; scheduled publishing takes the campaign page live at 9am without you at a desk; roles set who edits and who approves.
- Content blocks. Hero, Text, Images, Image and Text, Video, Products, Product Grid, Product Carousel, Tabbed Carousel, Blockquote, Widget, Form, Product Map, Instagram Feed, Accordion and Tabs, Call-to-Action, Newsletter Signup, Custom HTML and more.
- Live preview. See the page as Visitors will, while you edit.
- Version history with rollback.
- Scheduled publishing and a draft-and-review workflow.
- Role-based permissions for teams and partner councils.
- Blog, Deals, Events, Itineraries, Campaign pages and Industry sites, all from the same builder. Full SEO and Open Graph management, with schema.org markup generated for you.
Live preview
Search
Results as they type, across everything you publish.
Many Visitors skip the menu and type what they want. Roam’s search, powered by Algolia, is instant, typo-tolerant and faceted, so a weekend plan comes together in a few keystrokes instead of a few menus.
Three maps, one for each way a Visitor sees a place.
Maps are Mapbox, styled to your brand.
- Region maps. The big picture: sub-regions and precincts, so a first-time Visitor understands how the destination fits together.
- Product maps. Every Product within a radius the Visitor chooses, filterable by type, so they can answer “what’s near me tonight” from the map.
- Itinerary maps. Recommended journeys with multiple stops: roads with auto-calculated distance and time, or trails uploaded as GeoJSON.
Add Business Events when your remit grows.
The Tourism Edition is the flagship: the consumer destination site. The Business Events Edition adds a venue and supplier directory built around the event planner’s brief. Editions run on one backend and one design language; add them as you grow. Tourism Greater Geelong & The Bellarine runs both its Tourism site and its Business Events site on Roam.
