Rove is an online travel brand for adventurers looking to discover remote, physically challenging, authentic adventure experiences. We worked with Rove’s team in Thailand to unpack their idea and launch an incredible new travel offer to the world.

The answer within

Our co-creation process helped define Rove’s true audience; adventure travel purists. We lifted the lid on deep-rooted beliefs and attitudes towards adventure. These discoveries included a weariness with false’off-the-beaten-track’ promises and a shortage of reliable local knowledge to help plot complex adventure routes in distant continents.

These truths guided us to our seemingly simple core proposition. Rove wasn’t an online adventure travel agent. It was a 'man on the ground’. The Rove team is made up of avid kayakers, swimmers, cyclists, trail runners, mountaineers and adventure addicts. They live, raise their families and care passionately about retaining the anonymity of the locations they work. But they also share a desire to open their ‘homes’ to like-minded explorers.
