The Rezdy story – how did it all start?
Back in 2011, founder Simon was working as a tour operator in a dive centre in stunning Thailand. His passion for diving led him to believe he would spend his days driving fancy power boats, taking clients on underwater adventures and generally spending more time in the water than out. In actual fact he found himself stuck behind a desk doing admin – taking bookings, sending emails, managing paperwork and looking for customers.
Frustrated, he set out to change things for himself, and in doing so found an opportunity to help others along the way. Rezdy was launched, and now helps thousands of experience-based businesses in over 100 countries every day to get more bookings, save time, grow their business and delight their customers.
Who do we help? We help any business with a tour, activity or attraction experience to sell and any agent large or small looking to source and connect with those experiences to build their customer offer. Check out some of our happy customer success stories to give you a flavour of how we help:
