What information should be include in the "Other" tab?

The Other tab in an UrbanSoft tour package is a specialized module used to manage supplementary tour information, primarily focusing on rich storytelling and visual engagement, with additional functional features planned for future updates. It enhances customer proposals, brochures, and online listings by showcasing high-resolution attraction story photos, compelling background narratives, cultural history, and unique trivia about attractions, activities, events, and dining experiences. While default story content can be pre-populated from Admin > Library > D.M.C (Destination Management Center), tour operators can fully customize all content for each individual package. Depending on your membership tier, story content can be added manually or automatically inserted from pre-configured templates in the DMC library.
