Hello!

Please allow me to introduce you to, NaviTour, a Maine-based company connecting travelers with authentic experiences led by local experts.

Our one-stop platform offers a wide range of experiences, from craft beer and food to art and history to hiking and fishing, catering to hikers, bikers, historians, photography enthusiasts, and more.

We are interested in partnering with businesses like yours that offer experiences in Maine or have professionals to help travelers plan their trips. Here are some ways you can get involved:

•  Organize experiences: NaviTour offers a space for guides and businesses to organize an entire experience, from customization to payment to guest reviews. We have streamlined the support, sales, and marketing process, so you can focus more on the relationship and unique value you bring to the customer, destination, and community. Examples of experiences we are looking for include photography walks, hikes, sunset cruises, full moon kayak tours, fishing trips, food experiences, beer and wine tastings, astronomy tours, coffee tastings, walking history tours, and more!
• Concierge guides: We are also looking for concierge guides--folks who know the area very well and can get paid to help people plan their trip. No booking requirements for this service, just itinerary building (e.g., do this, go here, etc.).
• Referrals: If you know of guides who are looking for more business, please refer them to us. We would be happy to work with them and help them grow their business.
• Send guests our way: If you could send guests our way when they are looking for something to do, we would greatly appreciate it. We offer a variety of experiences and are happy to help travelers find something that suits their interests.
• We are a resource for property/AirBnB owners: If you own lodging accommodations, we can also send you flyers to share with your guests.
