Travel + Leisure to provide Gogobot members trusted review- and image-packed guides
SAN FRANCISCO – Gogobot, a global community of in-the-know travelers, is teaming up with Travel + Leisure, which will provide to Gogobot’s more than 2.5 million registered users an ongoing feed of Travel + Leisure’s inspiring photos, expert reviews and picks of the world’s best destinations and hotel properties. Already delivering trusted reviews from real people using their real identities, Gogobot enhances its service through the collaboration by adding recommendations from one of the most respected brands in travel.
Travel + Leisure will add digital postcards from some of the world’s most desirable destinations to Gogobot’s live stream of user-generated images, which is among the most popular features on the mobile application. The postcards will also be showcased in such thematic guides as “America’s Best All-Inclusive Resorts” and “Best Affordable Beach Resorts” on the Travel + Leisure profile on Gogobot.
