HOW CAN WE WORK TOGETHER?
Since 2012, we’ve worked on a variety of destination and product marketing campaigns all around the world that were either organised individually or were part of a bigger collaboration.
The Travel Tester is a trusted and professional partner that will deliver creative and high-quality content. The main goal with any partnership will be to assist you in promoting and increasing the exposure of your brand within the global travel community.
We are available for tailored press trips, (live) social media campaigns, product, service and activity reviews, advertorials and/or giveaways.
Are you looking for text or photos for your own website? We’re more than happy to discuss possibilities with you. Over the past years, we have also created several pieces of content for travel-focused websites, for example for Expedia, Eating London and Viator.
To make sure that all the content we provide our readers with stays unique, all partnerships with The Travel Tester are customized. We offer packages with rates that will fit any type of budget, so please do not hesitate to get in touch via info [@] thetraveltester.com.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the amount of requests we receive on a daily basis, the following correspondence will get no response from us:
- Emails not addressed with either one or both of our names (Nienke and Nick. Hi! We’re humans.)
- Emails asking for do-follow link placements (sorry, but we just don’t work like this)
