What Niche Brands is Ventura TRAVEL open to?
We see our role in supporting you, with your idea, so that your travel niche becomes a success, that we achieve together as a team. So, it's ideal for us, that the knowledge and the technology, that we have is compatible with your idea.
Our software (both front- and backend) is optimized for multi day & multi destination trips. So if you plan to offer services that go to various places, our software will be compatible, and we quickly can launch the new brand. If your proposed travel niche is to offer yoga classes in a finca in southern Spain, then our software and knowledge is not much of help.
We are also building an infrastructure for platforms. So far galapatours.com is our only niche platform. We plan to launch more of these specialized platforms in the future. So if your idea is a platform, please apply!

Platform Niches
Most of our present brands are destination niches, but we started our first platform niche in 2017: galapatours.com, followed by fairtrips.com and polartours.com. Other possible niches include:
- Sailing cruises
- Inca trail trips
- Digital Detox retreats
- Sport retreats (fitness, boxing etc.)
- etc.
Other Niches
You can also be creative and propose new travel niches. For example, it would be possible to launch a brand that addresses selling trips through travel agencies. Another idea we would like to share with you: 11trips.com, a website limited to eleven, well-researched trips with limited availability. So, we are open to other suggestions, as long as we believe we can help you succeed with your idea.
Foundations
Even before we had our first clients traveling with us, we already helped local projects, as we believe that tourism needs to be a business, where all stakeholders win. So far, we have one foundation which is focused on CBT Tourism. We are also open for other foundation ideas, that we can sponsor and support.
