How to integrate GetYourGuide with TourTask

GetYourGuide was founded in 2009 in Zurich, Switzerland, is based in Berlin, Germany, and has since grown into one of the world's premier platforms for booking tours, activities, and attractions. It connects travelers with unforgettable experiences, offering a vast selection curated by local experts. With a particularly strong presence in Germany, the rest of Europe, and North America, GetYourGuide caters to a global audience of travelers seeking high-quality, reliable experiences.

The platform stands out for its user-friendly interface, instant booking confirmations, mobile tickets, and flexible cancellation options, making it easy for travelers to discover, book, and manage their activities. By partnering directly with tour operators and activity providers, GetYourGuide ensures access to unique and exclusive experiences that enhance any travel adventure. Integrating GetYourGuide with TourTask allows you to seamlessly manage bookings and reach a global audience, boosting your visibility and reliability in the competitive tours and activities market.

1. 1

   Go to this link to sign up as an activity supplier at GetYourGuide:

   supplier.getyourguide.com

2. 2

   Click the blue button in the top right corner to start the registration process.

3. 3

   Fill out the form with your business information and select TourTask as your reservation system.

4. 4

   Finish the registration process and log in to your new GetYourGuide supplier account.

5. 5

   Once logged in, fill out all of the necessary business and financial information and upload a logo to complete the business registration.

1. 1

   If you haven't activated GetYourGuide in your TourTask panel yet, then you can do this by going to Channel manager → Online travel agencies → GetYourGuide and clicking Connect an existing account.

2. 2

   Under Destination, choose the Country and the Town or city where your activities take place, and click Save: GetYourGuide shows this place as their destination.

1. 1

   All your tours and packages are available in the shared product catalog under Channel manager → Online travel agencies, grouped as tours (by category) and packages — ready to connect to GetYourGuide.

2. 2

   Turn on the products you want to sell on GetYourGuide. In Channel manager → Online travel agencies → GetYourGuide, each tour and package has a switch at the start of its row in Product pricing. Only the ones you switch on are sent to GetYourGuide. New tours and packages start switched off, so remember to come back and activate them — a product that is off is invisible to GetYourGuide, and one that is on but not yet connected on the GetYourGuide side will be reported as not found.

3. 3

   Each product already comes with a default option. You only add extra options when you want to sell a variation that differs from the default — for example a different tour variant (such as another language or pick-up point), or a version that includes optional add-ons. To add one, choose Manage in the product's ⋮ menu on the Online travel agencies page and add your options. If a tour has just one variant and no add-ons, there is nothing extra to set up.

4. 4

   A package is sent to GetYourGuide as a single product. So on GetYourGuide, set it up as one product (not as separate tours) and connect it to the matching package from your catalog.

5. 5

   In the catalog you'll find a product code for each product and an option code for each option — click a code to copy it. You'll need these when you connect your products on GetYourGuide below.

TourTask sends your prices to GetYourGuide automatically, so you never type prices into the GetYourGuide portal by hand and they always stay in sync. Set GetYourGuide's commission and your markup under Channel manager → Online travel agencies → GetYourGuide: see Channel prices.

Prices are sent in the currency your GetYourGuide account uses; TourTask converts them from your TourTask sales currency for you.

1. 1

   Make sure you're logged in at supplier.getyourguide.com and then go to Create > New Product. Select your title and description language, and then select your product category. Since you're using TourTask, most probably your product category will be Tour, or possibly also Transfer.

2. 2

   Fill out your product information on the next page. Once you reach the "Options" section, create a new option. GetYourGuide requires at least one option for each product. Start with creating the default option. If your activity has optional add-ons in TourTask that you want to offer on GetYourGuide, you can create these activity variations as additional options.

3. 3

   Under Option Setup > Duration or validity, make sure you select the first option, "It lasts for a specific amount of time (duration)".

4. 4

   Under Connectivity Settings > Do you use an online reservation system? select Yes, I use a reservation system, search for and select TourTask and paste the TourTask option code into the External product ID field. Always connect each GetYourGuide option to its matching TourTask option code — never the product code.

5. 5

   Under Availability & Pricing, choose Price per person and set up the prices as TourTask sends them: see Option setup.

6. 6

   The next step, Itinerary builder, is optional, but recommended to increase sales. Afterwards, in the last step send the product for review, and you're done!
