I see a booking form. You want to track if somebody has done a reservation? Or do you want to scrape such data?
Or perhaps you want to make something like that?

Do you own that site? If so, you could add some code to send you an email when a form is submitted. Should be 1 extra line of code.
If you don't own that site, it's probably impossible to track.
Yeah I own this website

Okay. So, you need a callback when the form is submitted. If you use php, you could fire the mail() function (or use phpmailer or something for faster development time).

What kind of website is the form on? Wordpress, shopify, squarespace, etc.
What kind of software or plugin are you using to have the form show up?
PHP website and I wanted to track via google tag or google analytics

I'd say create an account with an ESP that lets you build forms and place them directly on your website. This way you can setup auto responders and add people to drip email sequences after they fill out forms.
Easy way is to set up conversion in Google Analytics, which isregistered when user fills this form and get's redirected to some kind of "thank you / confirmation" page.
In G Analytics inteface it's called I think Goals > Destination goal type.
Another way could be already mentioned callback function which talks directly to Google Analytics API.
