Roam – Travel & Tourism WordPress Theme Overview
Roam is a WordPress theme for operators who both sell trips and write about them. Two custom record types carry the weight, one for tours and one for destinations, and the public pages are assembled from shortcodes that list, filter and cross-link those records.
Mikado-Themes publishes it. Layouts are built with WPBakery Page Builder, bundled with the download alongside Slider Revolution, and a one-click importer installs the demo so you begin from finished pages. Header styles, menus, sidebars and typography are set from a single options panel.
Reservations are handled inside the theme. A tour page carries a date field and a request form, PayPal can be connected for payment, and registered visitors get a dashboard listing what they have booked. Blog layouts, testimonials, customisable maps and a review system with criteria you define sit around that core.

Who Roam – Travel & Tourism WordPress Theme Is Suitable For
Canadian tour operators and outfitters with a defined catalogue of departures are the closest fit: guided hiking in the Rockies, paddling and surf outfits on either coast, cycling tours, fishing and winter trips.
It also suits a travel writer whose blog came first and whose tours came later, since the editorial layouts are as developed as the booking ones. An agency that prefers to quote by hand can leave payment switched off and run the same form as an enquiry.
Important Notes About Roam – Travel & Tourism WordPress Theme
One licence, one site. Layouts are tied to WPBakery, and bundled plugin copies are licensed through the theme, not in your name. Demo photography is preview material. Version 2.2 is dated 24 December 2025 and adds WooCommerce 10.x support, so maintenance is current; read the feature list as a snapshot, since the Twitter and Instagram widgets it names were withdrawn after those services changed their interfaces.
Selling travel is a registered activity in several provinces. Ontario, British Columbia and Quebec each require registration, financial standards and payment into a traveller compensation fund, settled before the first deposit is taken. Advertised prices must be achievable and include mandatory fees and taxes, with deposit, balance schedule, change fees and cancellation terms shown before payment. Adventure trips need honest risk disclosure, signed waivers, stated fitness requirements and guide certifications listed only where genuinely held. Reviews must be real and attributable, and travel insurance may be linked to a licensed seller but never recommended. The operator carries these duties; AppiAppi gives no legal advice.
Setup & Ongoing Management by AppiAppi
You choose Roam and buy the licence from Mikado-Themes. AppiAppi installs it with WPBakery, imports the demo as scaffolding, then rebuilds the pages around your operator name, colours, photography and the trips you actually run.
Every departure is entered as a structured record: duration, dates, group size, what the price includes and excludes, deposit and balance due dates, so filters and search return accurate answers. Cancellation terms appear ahead of the payment step, and the booking flow is tested with a keyboard and a screen reader. Once live, AppiAppi provides AI-assisted SEO and content support, publishes seasonal departures and price changes, applies WordPress, theme and plugin updates, and answers booking enquiries, matched to your subscription plan.
