DRUID, a market leader in conversational AI solutions, has partnered with Christian Tour, one of Romania's largest tour operators, to develop a conversational virtual assistant that will assist travelers in receiving personalized offers and information quickly and consistently.
Christian, a dynamic and convenient conversational virtual assistant, available on the travel operator's website, allows for more fluid and less structured conversations than typical forms-based experiences, assisting users in easily selecting the travel destination that best suits them, and in making the process enjoyable. Thus, new customers can interact with Christian seamlessly upon entering the website and are guided to request personalized travel offers based on a variety of information they provide in the ensuing conversation. Christian Tour has a rich history of counseling and assisting its clients, and thanks to modern AI technology, the company will now be able to also present tourists with many relevant options for configuring their vacation for any destination.
Existing customers, on the other hand, can use Christian to receive updates on their planned trips and reservations, as well as ask related questions. The AI-powered virtual assistant also serves as a real-time feedback channel, collecting information that can help Christian Tour improve its overall user experience.
“In today's travel industry, the rate of technological change and an increasingly tech-savvy and demanding consumer are challenging travel and tourism operators. We are thrilled with our collaboration with Christian Tour and our contribution to innovating how they engage with and retain customers. Conversational AI technology has the unrivaled ability to bring financial and ease-of-use benefits to experiences across a wide range of industries, and the travel industry is undoubtedly one of the most meaningful for the public", Liviu Dragan, CEO DRUID, noted.
“With the enthusiasm of adventure characters, Christian, our virtual assistant, offers clients a travel offer that fully meets their needs, assists with reservation information, answers questions, or listens to feedback. The key to a successful holiday is correctly recognizing the tourist's needs and guiding him toward the most appropriate alternative. A couple's needs and expectations differ from those of a family with two children or a group of friends. Each of them has the right to go on a dream vacation, and Christian will now help us find exactly what people want to make the best suggestions. Furthermore, it is all done quickly and with a pleasant experience.", Christian Tour's CTO, Bogdan Cismariu, explained.
