> Cut marketplace commission and win direct bookings in Munich. Tourpublish gives Munich tour operators a mobile checkout, tracked KLNKs and a creator network.

Tourpublish is the publishing layer above your reservation system, not a reservation platform. Every tour operator should be able to publish everywhere from one place.

## Who is booking tours in Munich

US, Italian, UK and Australian visitors, a very large domestic audience, and enormous event-driven demand in autumn.

## How the Munich season runs

Late September and early October dwarf everything else. Summer Alpine trips and the Christmas market period provide the other two peaks.

## The marketplace problem in Munich

Oktoberfest demand needs no marketing at all. Paying a marketplace percentage on bookings that would have happened anyway is pure cost.

## Why owned distribution wins here

Event demand is the clearest direct-booking argument in Europe. If guests are actively searching for you, a commission is simply the price of not having your own channel.

## What Tourpublish does for Munich operators

- 3-tap mobile checkout with Apple Pay and Google Pay.

- Tracked KLNKs on every tour so you know which creator, campaign or channel drove a booking.

- Direct integration with Bokun, CaptainBook and TicketingHub so your existing inventory syncs in minutes.

- A 3% fee on the Founding plan, against a quarter to a third on the big marketplaces.

## Frequently asked

### Should I sell Oktoberfest inventory direct?

It is the strongest case in the market. Demand is guaranteed, so commission paid during those weeks buys nothing you were not already getting.

### What about the rest of the year?

Castle and Alpine day trips carry the summer, and the Christmas markets deliver a genuine December season.

> For us, Tourpublish is much more than a platform. It is part of the digital infrastructure a modern DMO needs to build around the destination, connecting businesses, content, data and distribution in a way that creates more collaboration and less friction.

The destination of the future needs to be easy to discover, understand and book, whether the customer journey starts with Google, social media, an AI assistant or one of our partners. Tourpublish helps us mobilize the entire destination, turn authentic local content into shared value, and create a stronger foundation for data-driven marketing and seamless booking across businesses.

That is where we see the role of the DMO evolving: not controlling every customer touchpoint, but building the infrastructure that makes the whole destination more connected, visible and bookable.

Pilot underway to onboard 40+ operators across the Voss region

## Best-fit categories in Munich

- [Day tours booking software Longer lead times than any other category, often two to six weeks. That makes day tours the best fit for search and long-form content rather than same-week social.](https://tourpublish.com/software/day-tours)

- [Food tours booking software Food tours run year round in most cities, with a dip in deep winter and a spike around long weekends and food festivals. Evening departures fill fastest.](https://tourpublish.com/software/food-tours)

- [Walking tours booking software Walking tours are the most weather-sensitive high-volume category. Shoulder months swing hard on forecast, so same-week promotion beats long-lead campaigns.](https://tourpublish.com/software/walking-tours)

- [Ski and snow experiences booking software A short fixed season with heavy pre-booking. Snow conditions can invalidate a week of departures, so rebooking control is worth real money.](https://tourpublish.com/software/ski-snow-tours)

## More of Germany

- [Tour operators in Berlin May to September peaks with steady year-round demand. Major festivals and club events create their own micro-seasons.](https://tourpublish.com/tour-operators/berlin)
