While there are many tour providers and travel agents out there, the area of travel experiences has remained largely untouched by the digital revolution. GetYourGuide has successfully built an attractive and easy-to-use online marketplace that offers users an alternative to out-dated booking sites. The company has managed to thrive despite a significant downturn in the tourism industry.

GetYourGuide's impressive funding up to Series F is a testament to its solid footing in the travel market. What's more, a partnership with travel giant Expedia means that GetYourGuide is set to expand into the US market, which could prove to be a game-changer for the company.
