The difference

Most campaigns stop at reach. Ours connect content with travel trade and booking.

B2C · Traveller demand

Inspiration with millions of views a year

Social and YouTube content that puts a destination, hotel or route in front of a genuinely travel-minded German audience.

B2B · Travel trade activation

The people who sell the trip

Travel agents and expedients equipped with the product knowledge to recommend and sell — because we come from the trade ourselves.

An airline and its destination, in one story

A cinematic trip report bringing a niche Atlantic destination and its flight product to a German audience — cabin, route and island together. The strongest single asset for airline-plus-tourism-board thinking.

Activation environments

Content doesn't stop at reach. We connect it to booking.

We produce the content, build the activation environment and connect it to distribution — a real destination, hotel or booking journey, not just a video.

We produce the content. We build the activation environment. We connect it to distribution.

B2C + B2B

Demand from travellers. Activation from the trade.

B2C · Traveller demand

We reach people planning a trip

A German-speaking audience that follows us specifically for travel — the moment before a destination or hotel is chosen.

  • Short-form first — TikTok, Instagram Reels, Facebook, YouTube Shorts
  • Long-form trust — full hotel tours and destination films on YouTube
  • Always-on — continuous presence, not a one-off burst
B2B · Travel trade

We reach the people who sell it

For a board or an airline, the German travel trade is a multiplier. We speak its language — we run a travel agency ourselves.

  • Agents & expedients — product knowledge for the counter
  • Destination education — training & webinar formats we can build with you
  • Own agency & distribution — our own travel agency at the end of the chain
Reach · Channels

A real community, not rented reach.

Public channel figures as of 26 October 2026. Every number below is a public account you can open right now. Followers overlap between platforms, so we don't add them up.

A typical Instagram Reel reaches 11,351 plays (median of 162 Reels, last 12 months). A typical YouTube hotel tour has 9,018 views (median of 82 videos since 2020) — and keeps being found for years.

B2B · Travel Trade

We understand the trade — because we are the trade.

Most media partners can only reach the end customer. We also reach and equip the German travel trade that turns interest into a sale.

  • →A channel on expi.tv. We publish on expi.tv — the German travel-trade video platform used by agencies — not only to end consumers.
  • →Training content for agents. For Tobago we produced a video webinar for travel agents. Every destination campaign includes a training video for agents.
  • →Our own travel agency. The Besser Urlauben Travel Lounge in Wölfersheim (Bindewald GmbH) — we sit at the counter and know how a trip is actually sold.
  • →Content the trade already uses. Iberostar features Benny in its own trade series “For Travel Agents, By Travel Agents”; the founder ran for DRV president in 2025.

Trade proof, not just claims: a channel on the expi.tv trade platform, a video webinar for Tobago and Iberostar's own agent series featuring Benny — with our own distribution at the end of the chain.

Why Benny

Not an influencer who started talking about travel. Someone who came from the travel trade and knows the industry from the inside.

Benjamin “Benny” Bindewald has been in tourism since 2005. He trained as a travel agent, sold trips in a Thomas Cook travel agency for six years and then hosted “Boarding mit Benny” for Neckermann Reisen on YouTube. Today he runs Besser Urlauben and his own travel agency, the Besser Urlauben Travel Lounge.

Separate option · Paul XP

Family hotels through a child's eyes.

For family hotels, clubs and resorts: Benny's son Paul (10) shows on his own channel Paul XP what children love about a hotel — the room, the pool, the kids' club, the food and the adventures around it. Honest, curious and at eye level with young guests.

Paul XP · Hotels through a child's eyes

Like in his Maldives video

Seaplane, water villa, pool, snorkelling and dolphins: in his video “MALEDIVEN! Wasserbungalow, Delfine & HAI-ALARM” Paul shows a resort the way children experience it — 6:20 minutes on YouTube, plus nine Shorts published daily from 26 October. The family paid for the holiday itself.

  • Hotel video from a child's point of view on Paul XP (YouTube)
  • Shorts and Reels as a series around the stay
  • Optional with Besser Urlauben: Benny's hotel tour for parents plus Paul's segment for kids
Advertising is always labelled. Paul only takes part in what suits him, and filming only happens with his parents. Paul XP is a separate brand — its audience is not included in the Besser Urlauben figures.

New · Resort Worlds — a game world by Paul XP & Besser Urlauben

Your hotel as a game world.

We rebuild your resort true to scale — in real metres — and turn it into a game for your youngest guests: their own character, the Slide Cup on your real waterslide and a digital holiday pass.

Resort Worlds prototype: three game characters cheering on a podium in a lagoonPrototype · Resort Worlds
Prototype · live demo on request

Slide Cup — the virtual waterslide championship

Children create their own character, explore the resort and race down your real slide: pushing off at the right moment, the best line through the bends, a clean splash at the end. Points count instead of a stopwatch — with an award ceremony and badges in their holiday pass.

  • True-to-scale rebuild from floor plans, site plans and our own footage — every dimension with its stated accuracy
  • Your event: daily qualifying, weekly final and award ceremony with your entertainment team
  • Your dashboard: events, guest codes and usage — aggregated figures only, no data on individual children
  • Child-friendly by design: nicknames only, no open chat, no in-app purchases, no location tracking
Prototype in development: the browser demo is running, the iPhone app is in testing. Free for families; hotels pay for set-up and a licence — quote on request. Characters and scenes shown come from the prototype. Real hotels are only shown with their approval.
