Company Summary

We offer a new sales chanel for independent travel companies, (“ITC’s”) with local expertise. We post trips curated by local experts but exclusive to Traveloti that focus on the growing trend of interest based experiential travel. We earn 10% of all trips booked.

Traveloti provides a new direct sales channel for the ITCs, who have relied primarily on conventional travel agents for bookings at a much higher acquisition cost.
