Ten06 has been awarded the GOLD distinction at the Tourism Awards 2025, in the category Innovative Concept — for the Boötes platform, in cooperation with Travelferry.com by Giovanti Travel.

What won the GOLD

Boötes is the first Greek technology that combines ferry tickets and accommodation in a single booking. The traveler picks a route; the platform packages the ferry leg with hotel options for the destination; a single checkout confirms both — at a better price than buying them separately.

Why it matters for Greek travel

Ferry and accommodation have historically been two separate purchases — two sites, two transactions, two cancellation policies. Boötes collapses that into one cart, with dynamic-packaging logic that surfaces the right hotel options for each port of arrival.

For Travelferry and Giovanti Travel the change is concrete:

  • Augmented services. Customers buy ferry + stay in one flow.
  • Differentiation. A combined booking experience no other Greek operator currently offers.
  • Pricing leverage. Packaged services unlock discounts that single-service bookings can't.

For the traveler it's one transaction, one confirmation, and a discount on top of services that previously had to be booked apart.

What the Tourism Awards 2025 jury recognized

  • First Greek combined ferry + hotel booking solution
  • Cross-selling and dynamic packaging in one flow
  • Alignment with international travel e-commerce standards

The result is a platform that digitizes tourism operations, helps businesses align with international e-commerce trends, and delivers actionable data for strategic growth.
