Let's Talk Tour Scheduling

I’ve been booking a lot of tours lately and noticed some great strategies for optimizing schedules at popular locations… For instance, starting in the morning around 9 AM really helps beat the crowds and gives guests a more enjoyable experience. What scheduling tips have you found useful for keeping things smooth and efficient?
