What Turneo does
Turneo is a London-headquartered, Croatia-founded B2B SaaS and marketplace company founded in 2022 that enables hotels and resorts to digitize, distribute, and manage in-destination experiences for their guests. The platform serves as an "operating system" for hotel experiences, covering activities, spa and wellness, dining, events, rentals, transfers, and bundled room-plus-experience packages, and it operates across the full workflow: guest-facing discovery and booking on the hotel website, concierge-assisted booking with AI-drafted itineraries, centralized calendar and resource management for staff, and revenue/performance analytics for management. The customer base spans hundreds of hotels globally, from boutique properties such as Scribner's Catskill Lodge and The Nest Boutique Resort in Zanzibar to enterprise chains including Marriott, Hyatt, Falkensteiner (32 properties across 7 countries), Maistra (35 properties), Aminess (22 properties), and Plava Laguna.
The underlying platform is API-first and built around native integrations with the dominant hotel property management systems — Bókun, Oracle OPERA Cloud, apaleo, MEWS, REGIONDO, and Rentlio — which embed Turneo's experience storefront inside existing hotel technology stacks and create switching costs. The product surface combines a transactional booking and resource-management core with an AI layer, most notably the NEO AI agent (positioned to automate up to 80% of customer service interactions), AI Pre-Arrival Recommendations, and AI-driven Guest Experience Profiles. The company is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant, and it was recognized in 2024 as one of PhocusWire's Hot 25 Travel Startups, with additional media coverage in Forbes, Skift, and Hospitality Net.
Turneo monetizes through three complementary streams: recurring subscription fees for platform access, per-booking transaction and payment-processing fees, and marketplace commissions on third-party supplier experiences (with a portion rebated to hotel partners). Go-to-market blends direct enterprise sales ("Book a Demo"), product-led self-serve onboarding, and channel distribution through PMS partner integrations and hotel-website embedding. The company is venture-backed, having raised approximately $3.1M total across a December 2022 pre-seed/seed ($865K from Ascension, Silicon Gardens, Underline Ventures) and a September 2024 €2M seed led by Bessemer Venture Partners with Underline Ventures, with stated use of funds for new-market expansion, platform enhancement, and team growth. The leadership team consists of co-founders Matija Marijan (CEO) and Fran Kauzlarić (Chief Commercial Officer).

Turneo competitors and assessment
Company assessmentOthers
- Cloudbeds: Hotel PMS platform serving independent and chain properties. Adjacent infrastructure layer that could vertically integrate experience booking, placing it in the broader hotel tech ecosystem where Turneo competes for budget and integrations.
- Mews: Cloud-based PMS and Turneo integration partner serving hotels and hostels. Functions as an enabling channel today but could expand into native experience features, making it both a distribution partner and a potential future competitor.
Direct peers
- Rezdy: B2B booking software for tours, activities, and attractions that provides online booking, distribution, and operations tools. Highly comparable to Turneo's experience management system in functionality and target market.
- FareHarbor: Booking Holdings-owned B2B booking and reservation platform for tours, activities, rentals, and experiences. Directly comparable to Turneo's core booking and management capabilities and is backed by a major online travel parent.
- Peek Pro: B2B booking platform for tours and activities operators offering inventory management, distribution, and operator-side tooling. Comparable feature set to Turneo's experience management system for activity suppliers and resellers.
- Checkfront: Booking management software for tours, activities, rentals, and accommodations with online booking, channel management, and POS features. Directly overlaps with Turneo's booking, resource management, and multi-property capabilities.
- Bokun: Tripadvisor-owned B2B platform for activity and experience booking serving hotels, tour operators, and attractions. Closest direct competitor to Turneo with overlapping PMS-integrated booking, inventory management, and channel distribution functionality.
- Regiondo: Booking and ticketing platform for activity providers with online reservation, payment, and channel management features. Notably listed as both a Turneo integration partner and a direct competitor in the activity booking space.
Broad incumbents
- GetYourGuide: Large B2C experience marketplace serving travelers globally with a vast supplier network. Competes with Turneo for activity demand and supplier relationships, though from a consumer-facing rather than B2B SaaS position.
- Viator: Tripadvisor-owned B2C experience marketplace with global consumer reach. Indirectly competes for the same end-customers and supplier relationships as Turneo, and operates B2B via Bokun in the same category.
