Mumbai-based travel and activity planning app Guiddoo on Wednesday launched the first map-based tour and activity e-marketplace which will allow users to take virtual tours of destinations.

The marketplace, which will be available across 15 countries such as India, Jordan, Philippines and Vietnam, will offer more than 5000 tours and activities.

As part of its unique offerings, the company is going to provide features such as traveller-activity mappings, adaptive price forecasts for activities, travel happiness index and activity-lifestyle maps for travellers.

"We at Guiddoo plan to build a great user experience and predictive tool for travellers during the in-destination phase," said Prashant Choudhary, chief technology officer at Guiddoo.

The company claimed that it is more oriented towards the experience rather than being a discovery website like Trip Advisor.

"We forecast a huge surge in our usage and revenue potential with this addition, with an expectation of 1,000 percent increase in usage of our web and mobile products in the coming year," said Vineet Budki, CEO and founder of Guiddoo.
