Three twenty-minute tours, each with six visitor places. Ten minutes between tours gives the host time to return and welcome the next group. The sample middle tour is full.

Help visitors picture the visit
More than a time on a list.
A school or community-space tour might include classrooms, a workshop, and a music room. Tell visitors what they will see and how long to allow, so the reservation feels like an invitation.
A specific welcome point
Main entrance welcome desk is more useful than meet at the building. Include directions that someone visiting for the first time can follow.
Time to return and reset
The ten-minute gaps belong to the host. Keep them out of the list of bookable tour places.
A clear visitor count
Say how to include companions before the visitor submits. The tour's size should describe the people arriving, not just the number of contact emails.
From an example to your event

Apply and check the tour times
The starter offers 10, 10:30, and 11 AM departures, with twenty-minute tours. Review those times against the host's actual availability.
