Maupintour (www.maupintour.com), a specialized tour operator owned by Monaker Group, Inc. (OTCQB: MKGI), is a hidden gem for both Monaker and its users. Maupintour, founded by Tom Maupin, designs comprehensive and creative tours for groups and individuals, offering travelers the opportunity to arrange uniquely customized tours to exotic locales. Other travel companies have booking engines that can arrange business travel, but Monaker has the unique advantage of owning a subsidiary, Maupintour, which designs specialized tours for the business traveler seeking to turn a business trip into a customized leisure adventure.
According to a 2016 Global Business Travel Association Index study (https://dtn.fm/iZ8rA), 45% of business travelers at firms with 1-249 employees extend their trips to combine business and leisure travel. Especially for younger travelers, extending company paid travel with additional days of personal travel offers them the chance to explore destinations they have already reached. Monaker’s booking engine is perfect for them to integrate the booking of business and leisure travel using the company’s efficient NextTrip.com site. For Monaker, Maupintour represents an important additional revenue stream.
To high-tech travelers, Monaker Group’s Maupintour is something very special. This 65-year-old tour arm of the company specializes in tailored tours to travelers who are adventurous and curious to try exotic trips. A business trip to Athens, Greece, can become a Maupintour archeology tour. A business meeting in Rome can become a specialized tour of the Vatican. A meeting in Chile can be extended and turned into a customized wine-tasting tour. A ho-hum business trip to a foreign location can become, by extension, an economical but glorious leisure trip, as well.
The Index study found that these travelers would use leisure travel not only to explore these destinations, but also to visit family and friends. In addition, it found that learning about a destination’s cultural offerings was important to these employees.
Monaker Group is a technology-focused company that is travel-driven, targeting the alternative lodging market (ALM). Bill Kerby, founder, chairman, and CEO of Monaker, sees ALR as one of the fastest expanding sectors of the entire travel market, projected by industry experts to reach $169 billion by 2019.
The company’s real-time booking engine offers ALR inventory, plus access to air, conventional lodging, business travel needs, and a library of greater than 15,000 video clips of destinations and leisure activities, cruises, and other travel, all on one site.
