Global Trekker Launches New Travel Website

Travature.com - Announces the beta launch of a new service enabling free access to the world's travel information. Conceived initially as a response to founder Jeremy Almond's frustrations while exploring the world, Travature aims to take the headache out of trip planning. With its integrated approach to connecting and aggregating online travel information, Travature is poised to revolutionize the industry.
The company's unique set of free travel tools include: a flexible airfare meta search engine, open and editable "wiki style" travel guides, a handpicked travel deal of the day, community driven restaurant reviews, as well as city travel mashups, which combines all Travature tools into one simple page.
"After spending nearly a year exploring the world, one thing became very clear to me: it's impossible to find a consistent Internet source with reliable travel information" says Jeremy. "Travel sites are often focused on making a sale; they don't have much interest in helping the consumer out. The few sites that offer no-strings-attached services are typically incomplete or focus on a single niche. As an avid traveler, I felt the industry was in need of a radical new perspective that focused on the consumer's interests. At Travature, we have drawn a line in the sand: we make it clear that our primary goal is to serve as an information resource, assisting travelers in all aspects of their travels, free of charge and free of sales gimmicks."
This mentality is the foundation of Travature's mission, to create a platform that helps people find and share travel information easily. By capturing the collective intelligence of locals and travelers alike, Travature can present reliable information across the entire travel spectrum. People visiting a new city, can check out a travel guide, written by travelers who have been there before. Those looking to eat at a new restaurant can see others' experience there. And for the many trying to decide on where to fly, Travature makes airfare research easier by showing you where, when, and how much others paid.
