I love traveling. It is what defines me and make me me. I am not highly educated since my single mom did not have the funds to put me through university or college and there wasn't the convenience of PTPTN back then. Whatever I am or know I learn in the University of Life and well, my travels which I have been quite fortunate to be able to have done....
Being able to travel is one of the most important thing in my life as I am one of those who loves setting foot in another country, another city and letting the cultures, history and experience wash over me...
Sadly, travel can be quite expensive at times.. so normally when I travel alone and have to pay for myself, I travel in a backpacker budget style, shoe string travel, they call it... I will put up in a friend's house, a guest house and dorms instead of 4-5 star hotels, unless it has been paid for by someone else... hehehe...
Anyway, I am here to share with you all a great and very rewarding travel club.... and before you all ask, NO, IT IS NOT THAT "YOU SHOULD BE HERE" THINGIE or any other MLM companies... This is a club where you can only enjoy booking your trips and holidays with amazing discounts and no pressure...
This travel club is called Tourist Guide, and currently it is still local based but it will launching its international website in the third quarter of this year, so practically anyone, anywhere can be a member here....
So, what is Tourist Guide???
Tourist Guide's mission is to build the World's Largest Travel Network so traveling will be more affordable, cheaper and even FREE for its members
Almost everybody loves travelling but for people with lower income (like me), the cost of travelling is one of the main concerns of many people. Tourist Guide gathers all travelers in one network and link them up together for each others benefit.
And as I said, Tourist Guide is NOT A MLM company but they are using the concept of network to link up their members from all over Malaysia as well as the world so that they can become the Largest Travel Network. And by being the Largest Travel Network, Tourist Guide will have the bargaining power to get even better (if not the best) travel deals for all their members.
Besides that, as a Tourist Guide member, you will get rewarded when any of your friends, relatives or any one at all travel by accumulating points and redeeming it for FREE Holiday at no extra cost!!!!
Ok, these pictures here are a little grainy since they are taken off some slides projector, but you can see as members, you will save a lot on travel packages, both for international travel or local travel....These were amazing past deals some members have enjoyed
And these are some new deals that I saw online... !!!! By just becoming a member, you can buy these packages anytime!!
Since Travel Guide is still new having started in 2011 and currently has just over 10,000 members an counting and is slowly building up its International website, there are only a few deals which are constantly updated with new promotions every month.
But... if you prefer to go somewhere that isn't in the packages, offered, you can call their Customer Service Centre, and they can help you customize a travel package to your needs...
Travel Guide is also promising their members hotel bookings that will be lower then what you can get one Agoda, Booking.com or AsiaRooms!!!!
SOme of you may have heard of Shopback and some of the other companies that gives you some money back. And so yes, as a member, you will also get a some cashback points which you can accumulate for future travel!! How awesome is that...
And pssstt... with these amazing deals.. if you can get a group of people to travel with you, you can even mark up some of the packages to your own discretion and earn some money... Shhhh....
Doesn't this sounds just amazing... I know it is and I am already a member, as I do sooooo want to enjoy all these benefits... what about you....
Ok.. so how much is it to be a member??? What is the catch??? There is no catch at all...
All you have to do is pay RM150 nett for a LIFETIME membership!!!! No monthly or yearly fees and you do not really have to recruit anyone to enjoy all those deals
And well, however, if you refer someone within a week, a little bird told me you could even get a FREE HOLIDAY TO BALI OR BANGKOK. Yeah, if you DO REFER people, you can earn points for a free holiday and maybe some cash... but if you are like me, lousy at convincing people that you must be a member and such (for any such MLM), just join Tourist Guide and enjoy all the amazing benefits...
FYI, Tourist Guide is a registered company, not some fly by night company....

DeleteMy friend talked to me about a similar platform but for the life of me, I can't remember the name.
ReplyDeleteI might guess it would be an MLM company... I was asked by several people to join in and of course I did not because I cannot afford their fees both starting and monthly and the having to recruit other members etc...
DeleteFirst time hearing bout this and it sounds very good as I can travel in a group with my customized place and itinerary. Nice recommendation
