Civitatis is a company specialized in the tourism sector, which offers Guided tours and excursions in Spanish around the world. With the normalization of international travel once the pandemic has been overcome, the organization continues to be a benchmark for Spaniards who travel abroad in search of adventures, experiences or walking tours in the main destinations.
These include Rome, Paris, London, Cairo, New York, Florence, Las Vegas, Edinburgh or Aswan. Likewise, they also have a great offer in most of the cities of our country for people who bet on the National tourism. In total, there are 70,000 activities in more than 3,000 destinations and the forecasts were to have closed 2022 completing the journey of more than seven million customers.
the company was founded in Madrid in 2008 and, since then, its growth has been unstoppable. The number one platform for activities, excursions and guided tours in Spanish is currently headquartered in the capital of Spain, where it has three offices around Puerta del Sol. In addition, in May 2022 it opened an office in Lima, Peru , as a result of its strong growth in Latin America.
Its CEO and founder, Alberto Gutierrez, who is currently 39 years old, was able to combine his two passions in a successful model: the internet and travel. The keys to the good results of the project have been the offer of its own content in Spanish, which is a differentiating element from the competition; the good positioning in Google and the consequent organic traffic generated; the selection of the product, always choosing the best suppliers and the 24-hour service offered to customers.
Vitrubian Partners, main investor
Since April 2022, Vitrubian Partners is the main investor in Civitatis, which with its VIP IV fund of 4,000 million euros, entered the capital of the Spanish company supporting Alberto Gutiérrez, who continues to lead the company.
The objective of this operation was to accelerate international growth, especially in Latin America and the rest of Europe, thanks to the contribution of the necessary financial resources and the extensive experience in tourism and the Internet of Vitrubian Partners.
Furthermore, Civitatis has received numerous awards, including the Vocento Award for Digitization thanks to the development of the platform Hospitality Experience Tool. The tool is a technological solution for hotel chains, property managers and all types of independent accommodation so that they can access a specific panel in order to make reservations for activities and excursions from their own reception and obtain graphic material that drives sales in the own establishments.
