If you are a travel enthusiast who likes to make spontaneous travel plans, or if you are planner who likes to make travel plans well in advance, then the Viator app is just right for you. In just a click, you can book tickets for your next destination for the same day, or in advance up to a year.

The Viator app for iPhone is remarkably user-friendly. When you open the app for the first time, you see the tag line “Travel with an insider”, which perfectly sums up what this app does for you. Initially, it automatically detects your current location and once you have selected your anticipated travel dates, it lists a selected catalog of unique, unforgettable, and exciting tours and activities for the location. However, you can easily change your location manually and opt from over 1,500 travel destinations worldwide. If you are uncertain about anything, just read the vivid reviews, recommendations, watch the local videos, and see the panoramic pictures posted by other travelers, which will certainly help you make a decision. Based on the local experts’ feedback, you can have a true travel experience like an insider.

If you want to know which activities are available in your proximity, just pinpoint your location on the app’s interactive map and it will do the rest. You can filter the listings based on your priorities, namely Tour Type, Tours Near, Hotel pick-Ups, and Deals only. Prices and average user review scores are listed along with all the attractions and tours. Attractions with special offers are always highlighted for your convenience.

For every listing in the app, the following details are listed:
  • Reviews
  • Overview
  • Important info
  • Pricing
  • Schedule
  • Photos

For listings that have special offers, an additional tab Special Offer is also listed.

In-app booking feature is convenient for you as well as the tour operators who want to sell any remaining tickets at the last minute. The checkout process is exceptionally smooth. You can book your tickets using a debit or credit card.
