About Underground Donut Tour

Founded by Jeff Woelker, Underground Donut Tour has operated for nearly a decade, offering donut-themed adventures across multiple cities. Tours involve learning shop histories, enjoying walks, and insider tips. Despite popularity, their tours were not visible on Google's Things to Do feature.

The Challenge

What they were up against

Google Things to Do is where travelers discover and book experiences from Google Search, Maps, and Google Travel. Listing requires a complex data feed from a certified connectivity partner - a technical barrier the Underground Donut Tour team couldn't overcome on their own. They needed a simple, automated solution to get listed.
