Our story
It all started in late 2014, during which time we needed (with our previous jobs) the help of some local DMC’s in Amsterdam. Despite asking for local, authentic & interesting sites and experiences, almost all the DMCs gave us regular ‘touristic’ sightseeing programs that didn’t make any impression at all. With our ‘Dutch’ business mentality, we saw an opportunity we couldn’t ignore…
Only 2 months later, we launched our DMC & travel agency in Brussels, with a full focus on local, personal & authentic experiences. Quickly, a number of local, authentic and mostly family-owned suppliers joined our ZOYO network, and we managed to create an exclusive portfolio of tours, incentives & MICE services all based on the same values. Besides, our support of the local businesses has led to a more intimate atmosphere and experience for our guests which results in a relaxed and enjoyable experience.
This year, we will celebrate our 12th anniversary with the team that is currently working for our Dutch & Belgium label. We are happy to introduce Thomas, Carolina, Jimmin, Aline, Isis & Peter.
