AI-powered content platform, Lokalee has recently announced several key partnerships aimed at expanding its reach and enhancing its offerings in the Middle East.
The first partnership is with TripAdvisor company, Viator, a leading online marketplace for tours and activities. Lokalee’s B2B platform will be able to integrate Viator’s inventory of over 300,000 experiences, providing its hotel and holiday home guests access to a wider array of activities in more than 200 countries.
For travellers, it means a more comprehensive selection of experiences, from guided tours to adrenaline adventures, all bookable through a single platform. This integration also simplifies the planning process and has already been implemented in well-known hotel brands such as, Hilton, Sheraton, Rotana, Sofitel, and Mövenpick.
This move follows Lokalee’s partnership with leading UAE hospitality solutions provider CADD Emirates in May. The partnership aims to expand Lokalee’s presence in the UAE, a growing market for travel and tourism. By leveraging CADD Emirates’ extensive local knowledge and technical expertise, Lokalee can tailor its offerings to better meet the needs of travellers in the region. It also helps Lokalee offer more region-specific experiences and tap into a network of local businesses and attractions, enhancing the travel experience for visitors to the UAE.
Lokalee has also joined forces with at-visions and beaconsmind Group to advance B2B digital transformation in the MENA hospitality industry. Hotels and business customers have access to the technology of all three partners which includes customised AI-based hardware and software solutions designed for hospitality from beaconsmind Group. This also includes at-visions’ specialty solutions like mobile applications, hotel-TV casting, digital signage and internet access for guests. Plus, together they provide other mobile-first options like mobile hotel keys, online check-in, in-house online services, guest Wi-Fi hotspots, Wi-Fi infrastructure and local experiences.
