Day tours booking site

This item appears on page 75 of the October 2011 issue.

Almost 9,000 guided day trips in more than 150 countries (mostly in Europe, the Caribbean and South America) and most major cities are listed on the booking and review website Viator.com. Users can build an itinerary for a location and book all the tours online.

Searches for the excursions can be filtered by location, region, city, dates, type of activity and more. Search results can be sorted by price, best sellers and travelers’ ratings. Each tour listing shows the itinerary, times, price and inclusions and exclusions.

A free app for iPhones and iPads can access Viatour to pull up “What’s near me?” listings based on the device’s GPS location.
