How do you make money?

We earn a small commission on hotels and activities booked through us, typically around 8-10%. We dedicate countless hours to ensuring you find the perfect stay within your budget. Our booking platform provides exclusive rates, as well as options from Expedia and direct from the hotels, ensuring that in most cases, you won't see a difference in price.

Running this platform is something we truly enjoy, and we're committed to offering you the best possible service. When you book with us, you can trust that you're getting great value while supporting a dedicated team that loves what they do. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're here to help you make the most of your travel experience!


Why not just do a blog and link hotels and tours so we dont need to talk?

At YAK TRAVEL, your experience is our main focus. We know everyone has different wants and needs, so we customize your itinerary just for YOU, rather than suggesting the same popular spots. Instead of just offering a standard choice like based on commission , let's find what truly matches your vision. Are you after a lively downtown area for nightlife, or a cozy budget hotel with Tatami mats that your partner may enjoy—assuming the shared bathroom is okay?

We believe a great trip is more than just a list of sights. It's about creating a memorable experience that connects with you. By discussing your wishes, we make sure your itinerary reflects your interests and the memories you want to create. Whether you want a peaceful getaway or thrilling adventures, I’m here to assist you every step of the way, prioritizing YOUR experience over hotel options. Let’s collaborate to craft the perfect itinerary that truly represents who you are.

What else Can you help plan ?

Whether you're dreaming of watching a thrilling Premier League game in the U.K., tackling the stunning hike up Tiger's Nest in Bhutan, or dancing the night away in the vibrant streets of Hong Kong, we've got you covered. Our love for travel knows no bounds, and we’re excited to share that passion with you. Let’s embark on this journey together and make unforgettable memories, no matter where the road may lead. ?
