Imagine you are in Cox's Bazar on a rare three-day weekend to get refreshed as much as possible after a long time. But the sky comes crashing down when you discover Cox's Bazar city bustling with hundreds of thousands of tourists with no vacancy left in the nearest hotels and motels.
Many travellers nowadays face such difficulty, especially those who remain completely caught up with their job life and can't arrange for pre-booking. It results in room scarcity and an exponential increase in hotel charges.
These issues are prevalent in our country as most of our tourist destinations are concentrated in some particular areas like Sylhet, Cox's Bazar, Bandarban, and the Sundarbans.
As most organisations in Bangladesh prefer to give holidays to their workers at around the same time, there is a defined season of tourism that leads to an enormous flow of travellers, causing difficulty even in pre-booking hotel rooms offline. Nonetheless, with managerial digitisation, these issues are entirely preventable.
GoZayaan, the online platform for next-generation travel, has taken the market precisely to alleviate people's primary challenges while dealing with tourist concerns.
How GoZayaan is catering to every type of traveller
GoZayaan has been in the headlines since the beginning of the year. The company started the year with the acquisition of a foreign travel platform and continues to surprise users with new and innovative services on its platform.
Despite all the noise, GoZayaan remains a customer-centric brand. Its services are designed to create the perfect, seamless user experience.
Anyone may reserve a hotel of their choice by simply entering the location, travel information, and passenger numbers. People may go to gozayaan.com or install the GoZayaan app from the Google Play store to book a flight, hotels, buses, and other services all on one platform.
Their purpose is to empower travellers, allowing them to determine their travel choices. Travel, according to GoZayaan, should be joyful rather than restricted by schedules. The company's goal is to remove any problems that may arise during domestic and international travel.
Special Features for Travellers
Since the days when using third-party operators to make bookings abroad was the only option, times have drastically changed. In the age of digital tourism, there are more options, visibility, and accessibility when it comes to travel.
Presently, only 5 per cent of Bangladesh's tourism industry is visible online, showing that the country is still lagging in adopting digital tourism. With tech-driven innovations, GoZayaan has been working tirelessly to change this by increasing the visibility of Bangladeshi travel online.
To make travel planning even more accessible for travellers, the company's latest endeavour included onboarding a vast inventory of over 700,000 hotels.
Along with that, GoZayaan further ensures convenience for travellers with innovations such as travel loans, integrated RT-PCR tests with international flights, baggage protection, travel insurance, etc.
The company is a 360-degree solution for all travel needs. As Bangladesh is undergoing a digital transformation, GoZayaan has emerged as an essential component for digitising the travel industry.
Voice of the Travellers
All the new services GoZayaan has introduced are useful. Nevertheless, travellers being the main beneficiaries can give a real picture of how convenient the platform is.
Mr Mohidul is a frequent traveller, usually covering long-distance routes. Safety and security are of utmost priority to him while travelling.
"I used to book through offline travel agents before. However, with GoZayaan, I could book my flights and compare prices," said Mr Mohidul. Shifting from offline to online was a game changer in terms of convenience and visibility for Mr Mohidul.
Mr Asif Hasnat Chowdhury was introduced to online bookings for the first time through GoZayaan. He booked both international flights and hotels through the platform.
About the ease and security of the platform, he shared, "I loved the quick service and received excellent value for my money. The process was smooth." He added that the manual process of booking involved a lot of back and forth regarding confirmation. However, booking through GoZayaan was instant and completely hassle-free.
Travel is for everyone, regardless of preferences. Whether one enjoys basking in the sun on a quiet beach or climbing up to rocky mountains, the best experience comes when one can make their plans and preferences themselves. GoZayaan is here to empower travellers with transparency and visibility so they can achieve exactly that!
