About GetYourGuide:

We’re on a journey to transform ordinary trips into extraordinary ones.

What do people value the most from their trip to a new destination? It’s likely not the flight they took, nor the hotel in which they stayed, it’s the unforgettable experiences that help people connect with their destination’s history and culture and create memories that last a lifetime. Our ambition, and our opportunity, is to become the global leader for travel experiences.
