We, at Questo, have built a platform that helps travel businesses create their own self-guided tours which are safe alternatives to regular tours in these troubled times.
We are selecting 100 travel businesses affected by COVID build these tours at no cost. Interested travel companies can apply here by the 1st of November: creator.questoapp.com/business
Unlike other travel companies, one travel startup is thriving in the pandemic.
Questo, the platform for phone-guided tours known as city exploration games, has expanded into 50 new cities since the start of the pandemic in March 2020. With these additions, the company reached 80 cities in which it offers tours adapted to a pandemic world.
Questo helps tourists explore cities by solving clues to discover new places and local stories all with the help of a mobile app. You can play with friends or family, without an organized group, at any hour of the day or night, making these phone-guided tours safer than any other.
Questo's platform helps anyone (from independent creators to businesses) create safe, contactless experiences post-COVID for both travelers and locals. The tours are sold on the Questo app and website, on TripAdvisor, GetYourGuide, Klook, Musement, and other partner platforms for prices ranging from 8 to 20 Euro. The revenue coming from the tours is then split between the platform and the partner.
Each route on the Questo platform is based on a specific theme, which can be inspired by a movie, a book, a historical fact, or just a local legend. Currently, tourists can use the app to explore on 5 continents in cities such as New York, Tokyo, Paris, Sydney, or Dubai.
As of today, the platform offers over 150 tours created by a growing network of local independent and business creators.
I just came across your post while I'm working on a possible solution for your problem.
A friend & I are trying to build a Netflix for mobile games. The app is called GameGif and we believe that mobile game discovery should be about video content.
That's why the unique part on GameGif is that you swipe though short game videos rather than looking at screenshots or reading boring descriptions.
Help us reach these companies!
