Why Greek tour operators choose Helm

Greece's tourism geography is uniquely challenging — 227 inhabited islands plus a mainland packed with archaeological sites. Operators who span both need a platform that handles ferry schedules, island logistics, and heritage tour coordination in one place.

Helm syncs your OTA listings across Viator, GetYourGuide, and Bókun whether you're selling Acropolis tours in Athens or catamaran cruises in Santorini. Availability cascades across channels so every booking is accurate.

With 80% of tourism crammed into six months, Greek operators face extreme feast-or-famine dynamics. Helm's operational planning tools help you scale up guide teams for summer and manage the transition to winter operations smoothly.

Start with Helm's free two-seat plan to manage your core island or mainland operation. When you're ready to expand across regions, Growth at €30/month gives you the tools to coordinate a multi-island business.

Stop managing your tours from a spreadsheet and a group chat—there's a better way.

Helm replaces the patchwork of tools tour operators rely on with one purpose-built platform for everything that happens after a booking.
