Tourism is arguably the world’s most international business, yet planning the ideal holiday is a very individual and personal process.
At travelNatives, we believe that the perfect journey starts with being able to read about your dream destination in your own language.
Whether your clients are tourists or travel businesses, it is important that they understand what you have to offer, even if they speak another language and are from a different cultural background.
As experienced translators, we produce foreign-language versions of your texts that will represent your brand internationally: creative marketing texts, terms and conditions, culturally adapted social media content, and more.
We’re all independent freelancers.
But we’ve combined our skills to be able to offer different languages and a range of services from one source.
What that means for you?
You save time: our translator-client approach means that your requests are dealt with directly by the people who will carry out the translation. Your text doesn’t go through various admin steps and is handled quicker.
You can expect quality: translation is based on trust, and by knowing who will be transferring your texts into another language, you can rest assured that the result will be flawless. We don’t outsource to anonymous third parties.
You save money: translation is not a commodity and has its price. However, when working directly with freelancers you save costs by not having to pay for large overheads and admin staff.
Our linguistic expertise paired with our knowledge of the travel and tourism sector ensures that our translations are flawless – and sound like texts originally written in your international clients’ languages.
As avid travellers, we are also your customers, meaning we know what they are looking for. This is why we can help your company to get its message across to people from different cultures.
Your customers deserve to feel like they are already on holiday when reading about your offer – in their own language. And they should be able to book based on correctly translated information. That’s why we do what we do. For your customers. For your business success.
If you want to grow your travel business, you need to be found by people who are looking for exactly what you have to offer. If your website and other online sources are only available in your language and/or English, you will miss out on a large chunk of speakers of other languages who only search for the latest travel offers in their mother tongue. In fact, some of the countries with the fastest-growing markets for your services, like China and Russia, largely use domestic search engines in their respective languages.
travelNatives provides multilingual content for a range of media, allowing potential customers to find exactly what they are looking for – your company.
Websites, printed materials, travel guides, etc.
Flawless texts that convey your message
Ensuring your website appeals to foreign-language visitors
Connect with your new, international fans on social media
Your marketing videos understood by a wider audience

I recently came across two articles about how to market your hotel internationally. Overall, they both provided useful strategies for attracting more foreign visitors, and in both articles, I was very happy to read about the importance of getting your hotel’s website translated. But as a professional translator, the advice that followed just left me baffled: use…

I will be attending the Arabian Travel Market 2014 trade show from 5 to 8 May in Dubai. Very excited to learn more about the industry and talk to inspiring people from the whole world. I believe that translations are tailor-made services and only if we as linguists understand our customers’ needs, we…
DetailsWe’re doing something new. Well actually, it’s being done by many freelancers, translators included, but rarely organised in a “formal way”. What I’m talking about? Working with a network of colleagues. Freelancers love their independence, but at the same time are also well-connected networkoholics. They have to be if they want to succeed.…
