Skift Take
We've been aggressive on social travel startups from the beginning, but hybrid transaction-heavy models at scale -- like China allows -- definitely have a future.
Mafengwo, a Chinese social travel service, has raised $ 15 million series B financing…with existing investor CapitalToday, who invested $ 5 million in last round, and QimingVentures.
With more than one million entries of user-gen travel guides and over five million ratings and reviews, Mafengwo provides travelers with info..on hotels, flights, travel routes, visa, insurance, etc.
