Company mission
To bring like-minded people together one unforgettable journey at a time
Our take
The travel industry is changing, with a marked increase in vacationers looking for once-in-a-lifetime moments and a more "authentic" experience. TourHero is a social travel platform that empowers this new wave of travellers with the tools they need to plan unique and epic adventures.
Through TourHero, users can group access trips that focus on niche activities and experiences. The platform makes this type of holiday much easier to plan, with logistical support and full customization options. It is also able to compete with other trip planning services because it partners with local operators to secure discounts with the group volume.
The platform has been well-received by travellers and boasts a host of strong reviews. It is supported by funding from Saison Capital and Progression Fund, with this early investor interest suggesting a bright future for TourHero.
