The Berlin-based company said Thursday it had raised the funding through a mix of equity and debt, with $85 million of equity investment being led by U.S. asset management firm Blue Pool Capital.
The investment values the company at nearly $2 billion, up from GetYourGuide's last publicly-disclosed valuation of $1.4 billion, according to a person familiar with the matter.
Total investment in GetYourGuide, including both equity and debt, now stands at just over $1 billion.
Rather than advertise hotels, flights and other forms of transportation, GetYourGuide sells its users experiences and things to do in unexplored places.
These experiences are offered through third-party suppliers on its platform, with GetYourGuide taking a commission on each booking.
