Ukrainian travel company Eurotrips raises €260k in a fresh investment from Day8

Eurotrips, a London-based tour operator with Ukrainian roots, has informed AIN about its new €260,000 investment round aimed at the development of bus tours in Europe. UK’s travel holding company Day 8 was the lead and only investor in this round.

• Established in 2013 by, among others, Dmytro Yaremkovych and Volodymyr Olyanitsky, Eurotrips provides travel experiences tailored specifically for the 20-30 age group. The company has a portfolio of over 1000 tours organized and a customer base exceeding 50,000 travelers. Today, Eurotrips has a team of 36 people and offices in Kyiv, Lviv, and London. 
• Eurotrips prepares to launch its summer season. The first tours will commence at the end of May, featuring nine European routes. These journeys range from 10 to 37 days, spanning 4 to 14 countries in a single trip. Additionally, the company plans the collaboration with Yacht Week to provide customers better travel experience and to bring changes to the European bus tour market.

For more than 11 years of work in European tourism, our team has faced many challenges. However, our goal was to present a fresh perspective on the traditionally conservative travel market. And, after gaining valuable experience and growth, our team is ready for further development with the support of key partners like Yacht Week. This partnership not only supports Eurotrips’ creative strategy but also puts the company in a strong position to enter new markets. As well as achieving its goal of being the leading travel company for European destinations to provide travelers with travel experiences around the world,

Dmytro Yaremkovych, CEO and co-founder of Eurotrips, said.

• The lead and only investor in the fresh round is the UK-based travel holding Day 8, operating since 2006. The holding includes Yacht Week, Ski Week, and Quarter Deck. By investing in Eurotips and teaming up with their team, the holding opens a new direction for the development of travel projects.

Apart from partnering with Day8 through the investment, Eurotrips plans to spend the fresh costs to launch the company into new markets, enhance its marketing efforts, and strengthen its team to ensure the delivery of exceptional travel experiences.
