Klook has come a long way in six years. The Hong Kong-based booking site for tours and activities was one of a number of similar brands attempting to muscle in on the sector.

But then came a string of increasingly large investment rounds and many outside of its Asia Pacific region (i.e. the West) started taking notice.

European ambitions, Softbank-backed and an ongoing rivalry with GetYourGuide (also funded by Softbank), Klook has positioned itself as one of the high-profile brands in the tours and activities wing of the industry.

Eric Gnock Fah launched Klook alongside his co-founders Ethan Lin (CEO) and Bernie Xiong and is generally the public face of the company.

He is the latest guest on How I Got Here.
