How it all started

TravelBird was founded in Amsterdam in April 2010. It all began in an attic and with founders Dennis Klompalberts and Symen Jansma, who offered just one fantastic new travel deal each day. For the past four years TravelBird has been expanding to 18 countries across Europe, and our websites now feature the most competitively priced holidays. Last April the famous Samwer brothers from Germany came on board as TravelBird’s first investors. TravelBird owes its success to a refreshingly simple idea: make it easy to book spectacular holidays and experiences by offering inspiring travel deals each and every day. Today TravelBird operates out of a large office on the Keizersgracht in the heart of Amsterdam, where over 400 enthusiastic and international “Birdies” work to find the best holiday destinations and create great deals for everyone.
