Editor's Notes
- Gengo partners with a range of travel companies, service providers and online businesses in this sector providing translation services that enable these groups to convey their message in any language. This service is focused on the following areas: - Travel listings Based around the fact that we all like to make bookings in our native tongue, Gengo partners up with bookings companies (online or physical) to ensure that the reservation process functions smoothly in the desired languages. - User reviews These are very important these days as we all depend on reviews as part of our decision making processes, especially when traveling. Gengo works with review sites like TripAdvisor to ensure that reviews are readable in all languages. - Location guides When you're on holiday it's nice to have good guidance. In this case a Spanish hotel chain can have their guest activity guides updated to a range of languages without worrying about any 'Spanglish' errors popping up.
