Get the trip you want with ZapTravel!!!!!!


Zaptravel is a global Internet travel company and trusted publisher of travel and entertainment deals. Our team researches, evaluates and tests hundreds of thousands of potential flight, hotel, activity and car packages to find those deals that we believe represent real value to places and events that we think are worth experiencing.


Zaptravel website turns travel search upside down. Most traditional travel websites ask you where and when you want to travel, leaving you with the job of both figuring out what destinations make for a good holiday break and then mindlessly searching for travels times with great prices. Other travel deal websites care less where you are coming from or realistically when you can travel, leaving you to browse scores of "great deals" leaving mid-week or without travel connections.


At Zaptravel, we take the "disappointment" out of finding the perfect trip. To achieve this we run every deal through three criteria:

  • it has to be an experience we would love to take, be it cool, unusual, off-the-beaten path or just plain awesome,
  • the travel connection must make the most of your precious free time, so no crazy flight times and mid-week departures,
  • the price has to be significantly better than that competing alternatives, and be the best we can find from scores of different providers.
