Musement marches ahead with Regiondo deal

Musement, the Italy-based startup, has been on the march since its €5 million funding round 18 months ago.

The startup says it has been finding traction, having begun with a tours-and-activities focus but having since broadened out to offer consumers other in-destination experiences.

Today, the self-styled “personal concierge in your pocket” reveals its partnership with Germany’s popular reservation for tour and activity companies, Regiondo

Musement inventory of more than 6,000 activities in the German-speaking market will be available to book in the Regiondo marketplace. And tour and activity providers using Regiondo’s booking solution, Regiondo Pro, will have their services marketed via Musement’s consumer marketplace.

Musement’s mobile app asks users questions and then aims to provide a relevant list of 35 of the tours and activities per destination.

Oliver Nützel, CEO of Regiondo, said in a statement:

“Musement makes a great addition to our distribution network, which already counts more than 80 distribution partners. Musement gives our merchants access to an international target group from all over the world.”

Regiondo says that more than 7,500 leisure companies are using its booking technology Regiondo Pro.

Musement announced a string of partnerships lately. It recently teamed up with passenger communications provider 15below to offer in-destination booking services for airlines.

They’ve inked a deal with Travelport to enable Musement’s content be provided to thousands of agents worldwide.

This year the startup opened a Barcelona office to help with its Spanish expansion.
