Making it easier for everyone to experience the world

Life is made of experiences. Experiences we share with each other. Experiences both big and small. That’s why we’re on the mission: To make it easier for everyone to experience the world. No matter who you are or where you want to go, we’ll help you make it happen.

Founded in 1996 in the Netherlands and headquartered in Amsterdam, Booking.com has grown from a small Dutch startup to become one of the world’s leading digital travel companies. We offer travellers a great choice of hotels, vacation rentals, B&Bs, hostels, guest houses, flights, local experiences, rental cars and other transportation options.

To make this happen, we partner with millions of entrepreneurs of all sizes that use our platform to promote and sell their services – from a large hotel chain to a small scuba diving school. By working together, we expand economic opportunities for businesses and communities, contribute to job creation and growth, and promote inclusive and sustainable travel around the world. 

Our mission is to make it easier for everyone to experience the world.
