Tb Travel B.v.

What Tb Travel B.v. does

TB Travel B.v. is a Dutch privately held motorcycle tour operator headquartered in Enschede, Netherlands, founded in 2006. The company organizes, sells, and delivers motorcycle holidays and tours across Europe, Morocco, and the United States, targeting Dutch-speaking motorcycle enthusiasts who want to ride their own bikes at curated international destinations without managing complex logistics themselves. Its core service portfolio comprises five categories: customizable individual motor tours, guided group tours with professional accompaniment and luggage transport, surprise/itinerary-builder trips, standalone motorcycle transport to destination start points via its own fleet, and Fly & Bike packages that combine motor transport with flights and hotel nights.

The business operates a sales-led model with direct customer engagement through its Dutch-language website (tbtravel.nl), phone, and email, supplemented by KNMV affiliation for community reach and a partnership with MotoHengelo for joint trip execution. Pricing is predominantly quote-based, with published starting prices ranging from approximately €165 for short regional trips (3 days) to €3,955 for extended USA tours (21 days); the company reports a 4.6/5 Google rating from 58 reviews. There is no proprietary technology platform, no disclosed AI/ML capability, no app, and no public-facing API; differentiation rests on a curated catalog of pre-programmed GPS routes, established hotel supplier relationships, an in-house motor transport fleet, and personal advisory service from named travel advisors (e.g., Bram, Marieke).

Revenue mechanics rely on per-trip package sales plus ancillary motor transport fees, with no subscription or recurring contracted revenue. The company is small (1-10 employees), privately held, non-funded by external capital, and financially non-disclosed, with all operations consolidated at its Enschede headquarters. Recent strategic activity has centered on catalog expansion (multiple 2024 launches and a 2026 Portugal guided tour) rather than geographic market entry or capital-driven scaling.
