Tiqets partners with travel platform Klook 

Amsterdam-headquartered online platform for cultural and leisure experiences, Tiqets, has partnered with Klook, a travel and leisure ecommerce platform in the Asia-Pacific region.

The partnership will enable customers to browse a selection of museum and attraction-related experiences, as well as offering Klook and Tiqets’ suppliers greater visibility and exposure.

Luuc Elzinga, Tiqets president and founder, said: “We are thrilled to be partnering up with Klook, one of the most impressive OTAs in the industry.

“Through this partnership, our network of more than 4,000 of the best museums, attractions and tour operators that provide guided tours at these museums will benefit from greater visibility in the APAC market, and Tiqets will benefit from new supply that Klook already has connected.”

As more people enjoy travel and experiences following a difficult two years, Tiqets has witnessed a 220% surge in bookings in Europe and the UK alone. Klook has also seen a rebound in bookings, demonstrating the desire to travel.

Wilfred Fan, Klook’s chief commercial officer, added: “This partnership with Tiqets opens new doors for both groups of customers to enjoy instant and seamless access to the widest selection of attractions and experiences across Asia Pacific and Europe.

“Klook has gone from strength to strength during the pandemic, and we’ve quadrupled the number of activities on our platform over the last two years in anticipation of travel recovery. We will continue to work closely with our merchants to accelerate their recovery and reach even more customers around the world.”
