TravelLocal launched in 2016 by a team of experienced travel industry experts who spotted a huge gap in the market to streamline the tailor-made travel market. On a mission to transform the market, the proprietary digital platform was launched to combine technology with human advice, at scale.
TravelLocal believes that a real custom-made holiday requires deep local knowledge. That’s why the team carefully selects every single one of the local travel operators it partners with, based on their unrivalled local connections and a true understanding of what ‘living like a local’ is like. For them, designing the perfect holiday is about pride and their craft. And that means, no two TravelLocal holidays are ever the same. By working directly with local tour operators, TravelLocal caters to the ‘socially conscious’ traveller, guaranteeing that customers are directly supporting the local economy of their chosen destination. It also retains the security of ABTA and ATOL protection.
TravelLocal offers 100 destinations worldwide, including Costa Rica, Sri Lanka, Egypt, Vietnam, South Africa and Greece. Over 50,000 travellers have booked through the site to date. It indirectly employs over 1,200 locals worldwide.
