Experiences take focus of travel industry

Turneo earns a spot on PhocusWire's Hot 25 Travel Start-Ups for 2024


Turneo's recognition as one of the Hot 25 Travel Start-Ups for 2024 by PhocusWire rounds off a successful year for the innovative platform that enables hotels to promote, sell and manage in-destination experiences.
Phocuswire's annual list has an impressive track record of identifying and honoring companies that later go on to make significant impacts on the travel and hospitality sector.

It is such an honor to be alongside industry giants recognized in previous years, such as TravelPerk, Frontdesk and GuestReady.
Matija Marijan, CEO and Co-founder of Turneo

These companies all equip the travel industry to meet and exceed ever-changing traveler expectations.
Modern travelers are strongly focused on experiences - and the travel industry is responding. There is a strong shift to experiential travel, causing increased pressure on hotels to offer their guests more than just a room.
Guests are looking for experiences first, and they want them to be bookable online, in advance, and at the touch of a button.

Offering a tours desk alongside check-in is very “last season” - instead, hotels need to start from a point of selling the experience of their destination.
Fran Kauzlarić, Chief Commercial Officer and Co-founder of Turneo

That’s where Turneo is demonstrating impressive results. Working with hundreds of hotels and resorts globally - including some of the most prestigious leading hotels of the world - their clients report increased online presence, improved guest satisfaction and increased revenue per room. The flexible solution can be set up in less than a week, offering full website-integration, live data insights, and automated sales and support.
Turneo share some of their learnings in their recently published whitepaper Crafting Unforgettable Moments - Lessons learned from hotels at the forefront of experiential hospitality. In it, they reveal why they are already the best at what they do - and why it’s taken the industry so long to solve. Hotels can learn about the trends shaping the future of their industry, gain practical advice on implementing experience-based solutions, and learn from some of the best examples around the world.
With recent announcements from Marriott, Four Seasons, Meliá and others, it’s clear this trend is already shaping the industry.

For those that want to stay in the game, adding experiences may remain the best - if not only - way of avoiding becoming just another faceless listing on an online travel agency.
