Following expansion success in the UK, Australia, Spain and Latin America, Left Travel continues strategic international growth into the continually growing European travel market.

The Left Travel network was already seeing over 200,000 users per month in these two regions and was looking to provide French and German users with localized booking experiences. Launching multi-language sites with native domains provides these users access to Left Travel’s AI-driven metasearch experience. This includes providing regional inventory with industry-leading partners including Booking.com, Airbnb, Fe-wo Direkt in Germany, and Abritel and Homelidays in France.

Left Travel’s unique performance marketing techniques, in combination with their robust partnerships with the best known accommodation providers in the regions, contribute to a localized path to purchase for the travel researcher. Whether they are at the start of their travel booking journey or they are searching for a specific property, Meilleures Locations, and Ferienhauser & Ferienvermietungen provide powerful search results from over 14 million properties.

Backed by proven search excellence, an inventory of millions of properties, and predictive data analysis, Left Travel continues to expand its reach in Europe to give localized user value to French and German markets.
