This study aimed to design and implement Extreme Tours, a web application focused on the administration and marketing of adventure tourism services. The central objective was to offer a robust digital solution for operators still using traditional methods, integrating a tour showcase, booking process, and administrative management. Considering official data, Brazil received approximately 6.3 million international tourists in 2023, with the Northeast concentrating about 25% of this flow and Maranhão registering significant growth in the sector, reinforcing the relevance of the project. The methodology adopted was applied research, structured as a case study, complemented by a mixed approach (qualitative and quantitative) with the participation of 10 users. The main results highlighted the implementation of a secure registration and booking system, as well as an administrative panel with real-time metrics. The integration between server-side rendering and the evaluation module enabled the creation of a public showcase that obtained positive evaluations from participants. It is concluded that the combination of technologies used allowed the agile development of a monolithic, secure, and functional solution for the e-commerce of tourism services.
