C.S. Soong, general manager, SEA region at Klook, said: “Travellers are more tech-savvy than ever; they do their research before every journey, and are constantly searching for convenient and value-for-money solutions.

“We are confident that this new collaboration with Merlin will provide overall better experiences for travellers who are visiting Merlin’s many attractions.”

The collaboration will give fans more seamless access to Merlin’s attractions, including Legoland Japan in Nagoya, Legoland Discovery Center in Tokyo and Osaka, Busan SEA LIFE Aquarium, SEA LIFE Bangkok Ocean World, and Madame Tussauds in Singapore, Bangkok, and Tokyo.

The partnership will also allow Klook users to get their bookings with Merlin attractions instantly confirmed, therefore supporting mobile ticketing.

The company is perfectly positioned to help us better engage with travellers in Asia through its industry and consumer insights, rapidly growing consumer base, and convenient mobile platform.
