Our story

Established in 2012, out of Zurich, Nezasa was started by a group of enthusiastic travellers (with some solid IT skills) who had an innovative idea to simplify travel. Their goal was to develop a technology that would shed the limitations of traditional travel by creating a tool that makes travel experiences more attractive, flexible and convenient.

The company initially sold travel packages directly to travellers and became a business to business (B2B) company in 2014. Since then, Nezasa provides the travel industry with outstanding itinerary generating technology drawing from a robust partner network that offers great products.

Our strength

The name “Nezasa” derives from a sub-species of Bamboo, a segmented grass that once fully grown is one of the strongest and most flexible materials on earth. Our name represents our core offering: components pulled together into strong cohesive products that can be adjusted according to needs.

Nezasa operates the world’s most sophisticated platform for creating, personalising and booking travel packages. In short: Nezasa will lift the travel industry to the next level!

True story: Hit with an overnight flight delay whilst on the road, Chris decided to sleep on the floor at the foot of the check-in desk, so he’d be first in line in the morning. He woke up and removed his eye mask to find people checking in, “sleep well” notes stuck on his clothes and a breakfast plate from the check-in agent. Fantastic service!
