GotoBus is a travel website headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts.[1]

The website provides travel products and services,[2][3] such as inter-city bus tickets,[4] sightseeing tours and hotel accommodations[5] to those traveling among destinations[6] in both North America and Europe.

History[edit]

The company, which operates exclusively online at GotoBus.com, was founded in 2002[7] by CEO and Cambridge resident Jimmy Chen. In 2011, TakeTours.com was introduced as a spin-off from GotoBus.[8]

Locations[edit]

Since then, GotoBus has opened additional offices in Los Angeles, CA; Hangzhou, China; and Bratislava, Slovakia.[citation needed]
