Disclosed funding amounts in these 50 travel-and-tourism rounds cluster mostly in the $1M–$10M band, but one disclosed round stands apart: Tripfactory’s $50M Series A on 2024-10-29. The next-largest disclosed rounds are $35M (Sotherly Hotels, 2024-02-13), $27M (Worldia, 2023-05-12), $23M (Lotus Foods, 2024-07-10), and $14M (Host & Stay, 2024-09-04 and Roami, 2023-03-07), making Tripfactory an outlier above the rest of the disclosed figures.
Rounds also concentrate toward specific time windows and geographies. The newest dated entries run from 2025-03-07 (Roaming/Po?—not shown) to 2025-06-11 (Soft Way), with 13 rows dated 2025-01-15 to 2025-05-23 and a notable share of London-based companies across 2024-07-09 through 2024-07-16 (Byway Travel $6M on 2024-07-09; Essentialist $10M and Timbuktu $430K on 2024-07-16; Achieve Hospitality is also London on 2025-05-12). Stage disclosure is uneven: “Series Unknown” appears in 21 rows, while explicitly labeled Seed/Pre-Seed/Angel/Series A/Series B account for the remainder; three of five Seed/Pre-Seed labeled rounds with disclosed amounts sit at or above $3M (Sedna Horeca $6M, 2025-05-02; Conservio $1M, 2025-01-15; 30 Sundays $770K, 2024-11-05).

Frequently asked
What disclosed round is the clear outlier in this travel-and-tourism set, and how far above the rest does it sit?
Tripfactory’s $50M Series A (2024-10-29) is the largest disclosed amount in the list. The next-largest disclosed rounds are $35M (Sotherly Hotels, 2024-02-13) and $27M (Worldia, 2023-05-12), with several materially smaller rounds in the teens ($14M: Host & Stay on 2024-09-04 and Roami on 2023-03-07).
Are funding rounds concentrated in a particular recent time window rather than spread evenly?
Yes: many rounds cluster in 2024–2025, with multiple entries in mid-2024 (for example, Host & Stay $14M on 2024-09-04; Essentialist $10M on 2024-07-16; Lotus Foods $23M on 2024-07-10). The most recent dated entry is Soft Way on 2025-06-11 (undisclosed), while the oldest dated entry shown is Roami on 2023-03-07 ($14M).
Do any cities appear repeatedly, suggesting a geographic cluster?
London shows up multiple times, including Byway Travel ($6M, Series A, 2024-07-09), Essentialist ($10M, Series A, 2024-07-16), Timbuktu ($430K, 2024-07-16), and Achieve Hospitality (2025-05-12, undisclosed). Outside London, there are fewer repeated hubs in the displayed rows (for example, New York appears twice with $5M on 2023-06-06 and $6M on 2023-06-01).
How does the stage mix look here, and is “Series Unknown” a meaningful share?
“Series Unknown” is the dominant labeled bucket with 21 rows, including Pool Safe (2025-05-23, $730K) and Safara (2024-12-19, undisclosed). Explicit early-stage labels also recur: Seed/pre-seed examples include Sedna Horeca ($6M, Seed, 2025-05-02) and Conservio ($1M, Pre-Seed, 2025-01-15), while named later stages include Tripfactory (Series A, $50M, 2024-10-29) and Worldia (Series B, $27M, 2023-05-12).
Which entries are the smallest disclosed rounds, and do they behave like scale-down outliers versus the rest?
The smallest disclosed amount shown is $10K for Sosuite (2023-08-22, Travel and Tourism; Series Unknown). Several other disclosed rounds are still low but higher than that (for example, GeziBilen $70K on 2023-09-18 and Manxi $70K on 2023-05-01), so Sosuite sits at the bottom of the disclosed range.
