Be a Better Guide - Free Tour Guide Training's video: Case Study: Why Withlocals Believes Private Online Experiences are Here to Stay

Withlocals was offering thousands of personalized, private tour experiences throughout Europe and Asia when Covid forced them to switch gears. They started experimenting with online experiences and their engineering team ended up building a new, custom platform for Withlocals hosts to virtually share their stories and expertise with guests around the globe. Memorable Quotes: “We started doing online experiences a little earlier than AirBNB… With someone as big as AirBNB validating the concept and putting their weight behind it, it really did help…” “We’re using the platform to promote cultural awareness and exposure and celebrate diversity...around the globe.” “People are getting very creative with what they use online experiences for.” “Online experiences are here to stay… it’s coming out of a different budget. It’s not your travel budget, it’s your leisure budget.” Inspired by this Case Study?
