Germany-based cruise portal Dreamlines.de secured nearly $25 million in a Series C funding round, according to published reports.
Founded in 2012 in Hamburg, the site emphasizes cruise bookings through its travel consultants.
Altpoint Capital Ventures and Target Ventures joined existing investors Holtzbrinck Ventures, Hasso Plattner Ventures and Dima, according to Greunderszene.de.
Dream Lines’ total funding figures weren’t immediately available.
