Get Your Guide is a system that selects and groups all the information and activities that can be carried out in a specific tourist destination, in this way the tourist who accesses its website or its mobile application can obtain all the data of the city they choose in the same place .
How Get Your Guide works
Through its search engine, the user can select a specific destination or monument and the dates on which they have decided to visit it. Thus, Get Your Guide provides you with information on tours and guided visits, information about the city, activities and nearby places, recommendations on how to get there and what you should know and opinions of other users.
Get Your Guide earnings come from the sale of plans and tours that provide of each destination. There are around 20,000 plans available through their platforms, the cheapest ones they guarantee, since if you find a similar one at a lower cost, they will pay you the difference.
For example, if we decide to visit the Eiffel Tower They will offer us plans such as a climb to the top of the tower, a dinner in their restaurant or a cruise on the Seine, plans range from 27 euros to 270 euros. Get Your Guide will also tell us that the Arc de Triomphe and the Hotel Raphael are some of the best places in Paris to see the Eiffel Tower from and recommend to not lose sight of our things, that the Tower is open 365 days a year and that it is preferable to avoid queues. We will also know through the web that the nearest metro stops they are Bir-Haekim and Trocadero and that users like Miguel Ángel and Edgar recommend us to lose our fear of heights.
In any case, the Get Your Guide website is missing the solution to some frequently asked questions for those who use the application for the first time. Will we have problems with the app while roaming? Can we access the information of the chosen destination without mobile data?
Origin of Get Your Guide
Since the foundation of Get Your Guide in 2009, this platform has not stopped growing: It is already present in 6 markets and has offices in Berlin, Zurich and Las Vegas. Proof of its international nature is the entire range of languages in which we can request information on our favorite destinations, 18 different languages. 2016 is presented for Get Your Guide as an opportunity to continue expanding, as stated to Marketing4eCommerce Cristina SanzHead of Communication and Marketing “Our objectives for 2016 are to continue growing, to see how the Spanish market reacts to us and, although it is already becoming apparent, when it becomes more obvious, give it a greater boost for its development and for the satisfaction of our customers.”
travel in real time
The power of the tourism industry is undeniable, in Spain we received almost 65 million tourists in 2014. With this and other figures Get Your Guide has developed the Web “” in which he puts specific figures on activities such as: visits to the Prado Museum, how many suitcases are lost and even how many beers are served in Spain. All this with real time figures through a counter that starts when you enter your website.
Cristina Sanz explained that the objective of this application was to show in a more graphic way what the tourism industry entails, «The Travel in real time application came to us because many times we did not get to imagine the vast number of people who are moving, consuming and making decisions at this very moment. It is difficult to reach a conclusion until we see it with our own eyes. That is why we wanted to give all our readers the opportunity to measure things in real time at the time they choose. Of course, we wanted to focus on travel, since it is our most precious specialty.
Do you dare to travel? Get Your Guide is available for both .
