Makemytrip Broadens Scope: Introducing Global Tours And Activities Platform For Indian Consumers
In a game-changing initiative for travellers who want to book their trips from India, MakeMyTrip—India’s biggest online travel company— has introduced a new Tours and Attractions booking service, that sets a new standard for how Indian travellers can book their international getaways. This service delivers access to over 200,000 curated experiences across 1,100 cities and 130 countries, all through a single easy-to-use platform.
This launch signals MakeMyTrip’s official footprint into the global experiences space, and tackles a major pain point of international travel: one of the most common issues, the confusing and fragmented experience of finding and booking activities at global destinations.From world-famous landmarks and cultural tours to theme parks and high-adrenaline adventures, Indian travellers now have a single window to explore and reserve these experiences with ease and clarity.
“Experiences account for a significant share of spending when Indians travel overseas, yet discovering and booking them remains one of the most fragmented aspects of the journey. Our attempt is to make the discovery and booking experience simple, convenient and personalised like the flight, hotels, and ground transport bookings,” said Rajesh Magow, Co-founder and Group CEO, MakeMyTrip.
A Game-Changer for Indian Outbound Tourism
Indian outbound tourism is booming, with millions travelling abroad every year for leisure, business, or personal exploration.Nonetheless, there are still many unavoidable complexities involved in planning activities—particularly for people going to unfamiliar destinations. Travellers generally have to go through multiple international platforms, compare multiple foreign currencies, and often can’t even speak the language, or don’t know the local place.
MakeMyTrip’s Tours and Attractions platform simplifies the process by aggregating top experiences providers’, inventory around the world, while providing the pricing in Indian Rupees (INR).This means no foreign currency conversion is needed, debunking the uncertainty often present when booking overseas experiences. In addition, the platform is fully integrated into the “MyTrips” module, where users manage their flights, hotel and local transport, making it a true “one-stop-shop” in planning.
What Shall Travellers Expect?
The breadth and scope of activities now available via MakeMyTrip is vast and varied. Whatever the traveller’s interest – be it culture, adventure, nature or family travel – MakeMyTrip has some options to suit every traveller’s interests. A few of the feature experiences include:
Skip-the-line access to Eiffel Tower or a whimsical day at Disneyland Paris.
A desert safari ride in Dubai, including dune bashing and indulge in local food.
Helicopter tours over Kauai Island in Hawaii, providing a unique aerial perspective.
A go at sumo wrestling with a demonstration in Tokyo’s famous Asakusa district.
Local food walks, museum passes, scuba diving excursions, vineyard visits, hot air balloon activities and more.
These experiences are all selected and curated specifically for Indian needs and travel styles, helping travellers move from simply sightseeing to more genuine experiences.
Strategic Global Partnerships
To power this platform, MakeMyTrip has partnered with some of the world’s most renowned global experience aggregators and operators, ensuring quality, reliability, and safety. These strategic alliances allow for real-time availability, competitive pricing, and a hassle-free booking experience.
Moreover, the platform provides detailed activity descriptions, images, user reviews, and language support—helping travellers make informed decisions based on their interests, budgets, and travel itineraries.
Changing the Travel Experience for Indians.
With this launch, MakeMyTrip’s evolution accelerates from a flight and hotel booking website to a truly complete travel companion. The Tours and Attractions platform enables improvements to the overall trip planning process and allows Indian travellers to explore the world with greater depth and meaning.
As international travel rebounds post-pandemic and as more Indians want joyful travel experiences outside of India, MakeMyTrip’s step is timely and transformative, empowering Indian tourists with the power of global discovery wherever they go.
