How to Use the GetYourGuide MCP in AutoGen
Build multi-agent travel concierges with AutoGen and the GetYourGuide MCP Server. Let agents debate itineraries and finalize bookings.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect GetYourGuide MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect GetYourGuide to AutoGen and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Equip Agents with GetYourGuide Tools
The `search_travel_activities` and `search_by_destination` tools give your AutoGen conversational agents direct access to global travel inventory. A planner agent pulls available tours, while a critic agent reviews the schedule for pacing and logistics. They negotiate the best itinerary based on user constraints. If the critic decides a cooking class overlaps with a museum tour, the planner calls the search tools again to find alternative time slots. The user only sees the final, conflict-free recommendation.
Automate Cart Management
Your execution agents use `check_activity_availability` and `list_active_carts` to secure tickets. Once the debate concludes, the designated booking agent adds the agreed-upon tours to the cart and confirms the transaction via `create_travel_booking`. Division of labor keeps the system reliable. You assign the booking tools exclusively to a transactional agent. The research agents can browse inventory all day, but they must pass the final cart ID to the execution agent to actually spend money.
Handle Post-Booking Logistics
Support agents call `get_booking_status` and `cancel_travel_booking` to manage changes. If a user requests a refund, the agent pulls the reservation details, verifies the cancellation policy, and drops the booking. Connection health is monitored automatically. A background agent can periodically run `verify_api_connection` and `get_partner_details` to ensure the credentials remain valid. If the API drops, the agent alerts the system before a user tries to book a tour.

from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import SseServerParams, mcp_server_tools
from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient
server_params = SseServerParams(
