What’s an experience?
It’s an activity that goes beyond the typical tour or class, designed and led by locals all over the world. Show off your city, craft, cause, or culture by hosting an experience.
Create an activity, your way
Food tour by bike, light photography at night, tapas on a boat, or yoga (with goats). Create and curate a unique activity people want to try.
Do what you love (and get paid)
Scout for street art or surf at sunset, turn your passion into profit. Earn money without it feeling like a job.
Get voices for your cause
Lead a hike with rescue dogs, or teach ethical fashion. Raise awareness of your cause in a whole new way.
Show what you know
Experiences of every kind, like cooking, crafting, kayaking, and more. There’s no limit to what you can do. Explore these featured categories.
Join a growing community of curious people
Hosts are chefs, artists, DJs, and other experts in their fields. They make people from around the world feel connected, and give access to unique places and activities that can’t be found anywhere else.
