Why US tour operators choose Helm
The United States tour market is defined by scale — geographic, regulatory, and commercial. Managing operations across multiple states means dealing with different licensing requirements, time zones, and seasonal patterns. Helm brings it all into one platform.
Sync your products across Viator, GetYourGuide, and Bókun regardless of whether you're listing a Manhattan food tour or a Grand Canyon helicopter ride. Helm keeps availability accurate across every channel and every market.
Liability management is critical in the US. Helm tracks guide certifications, insurance expiry dates, and activity-specific compliance requirements so you can focus on delivering great experiences instead of chasing paperwork.
From a two-guide operation in Savannah to a 100-person team spanning ten states, Helm scales with American ambition. Start free with two seats and grow into the Growth plan at €30/month as your business expands.
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.
