TripAdvisor's monthly audience of more than 25 million travelers will now have access to GeoBeats' high-quality travel videos when searching for destination information.

Travelers who enjoy TripAdvisor's authentic vacation information from real travelers can find more of what they are looking for at http://www.tripadvisor.com/VideoHome and looking for the GeoBeats name in the "From" field.

TripAdvisor boasts more than five million registered members and 10 million reviews and opinions, featuring real advice from real travelers. The company has won hundreds of awards and accolades from press and industry worldwide. "It is precisely this notoriety that GeoBeats is so proud to now be a part of," Ashish Khurana, CEO of GeoBeats, explains. "We are thrilled to see TripAdvisor's users having access to our high-quality travel videos."

Covering 30 countries, each of GeoBeats.com's destination videos is filmed by a local filmmaker and creates an authentic experience for the viewer.
