ONLINE travel agency Viator has partnered with Ezeego1.com to sell international tours and other travel products through the B2B and B2C channels of Ezeego1.com.
Initially, the two OTAs will offer products through Ezeego1.com’s websites in India and Australia, and subsequently in the US, Gulf countries and Taiwan.
Apart from the regular integrated packaged tours, Ezeego1.com will introduce the option to book only-sightseeing tours and activities on its website, aimed at clients who prefer to book their airfare and hotels separately.
Neelu Singh, CEO, Ezeego1.com, said: “Viator’s global selection of destination activities, delivered through Ezeego1.com’s technology platform, will help our clients and travel trade partners to create destination experiences.”
Viator’s research findings have revealed that travel bookers in India – both offline and online – are keen to explore new destinations and experiences, and tend to depend on India’s OTAs for quicker decision making, purchase and delivery.
Ken Frohling, vice-president, business development, Viator, said: “India represents a key market for Viator as a result of both the rapidly increasing number of travellers and enhanced adoption of online buying platforms. Working with Ezeego1.com will provide us with a meaningful entry into this growing market.”
BT Ramnani, director, Kolkata-based Vensimal World Travel, welcomed the collaboration, saying: “The more the merrier, as we can have greater access to a wider range of products globally and offer them to our clients.”
