Founded in the summer of 1988 as Estonia’s very first non-state travel agency, Estravel has evolved from a pioneering local start-up into the leading travel management network in the Baltic States and a truly global enterprise. Operating as the overarching parent organization, Estravel Group unites a robust portfolio of companies across six countries and three continents, including Estravel Group AS, Estravel Latvia, Vilnius UAB, Helin Matkatoimisto in Finland, Preferred Travel Services in the USA, and Aerotravel in Australia. Over nearly four decades of market leadership, Estravel has consistently shaped the regional travel industry—from introducing the area’s first computerized ticketing systems and securing a prestigious franchise partnership with American Express, to returning to 100% Estonian ownership under founder Aivo Takis in 2015 and officially rebranding as Estravel Group AS in 2023 to mirror its international reach. Renowned as the region’s most competitive tourism enterprise, the Group seamlessly blends historical resilience with modern excellence, driven by award-winning digital user experiences, industry-leading ESG and carbon-offsetting initiatives, and a forward-thinking leadership team currently headed by Kaire Saadi. Today, Estravel Group stands as a trusted, multi-continental powerhouse, combining deep local expertise with a world-class service network to guide corporate and leisure travelers anywhere in the world.
