A Tripadvisor company, Bókun helps tens of thousands of suppliers sell their tours, activities or excursions, expand their network, and reach millions of travellers. Bókun is designed to help businesses and professionals in the travel and tours industry to increase their revenues and strengthen their brand online.

I’m a tour operator, how can Bókun help me?

Bókun is a powerful tool that allows you to sell your experiences, connect, and grow your business across multiple sales channels. These can be Online Travel Agencies (OTAs), your website, or through partnerships made in the Bókun B2B Marketplace . The Bókun Marketplace includes thousands of suppliers and resellers from across the world, allowing you to connect with all of them.

How much does Bókun cost?

Our goal is to offer a solution that fits different types of suppliers so we developed a pricing model that puts all of the powerful technology you need to start and grow your business at its forefront.
