Published

on

NEEDHAM, Mass., July 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Viator, the world’s largest travel experiences marketplace, today announced the winners of the 2024 Viator Experience Awards.

Now in its third year, Viator’s annual Experience Awards rank the world’s top travel experiences as chosen by the company’s millions of global travelers. This year, the awards program recognizes over 400 global tours, activities, and excursions – once again setting the bar for the best things to do and see.

“These awards highlight some of the world’s best travel experiences – and the incredible guides, operators, and small and large businesses that make them possible,” said Laurel Greatrix, vice president of brand and marketing at Viator. “The winner’s list reads as the ultimate bucket list – snorkeling between tectonic plates in Iceland, a candlelit dinner down the Danube, an exploration of the pyramids with a private, personal guide. It serves as a reminder of how truly extraordinary this planet is.”

What’s trending in 2024?
Culturally-driven tours and culinary experiences dominated the 2024 Experience Award rankings.

As travelers look to dive deep into destinations’ rich local cultures, it’s not surprising that all of the global regions spotlighted in Viator’s 2024 Experience Awards include at least one winning historical or cultural tour. From exploring temples on an after-dark tuk-tuk tour in Bangkok, to learning about the history and hauntings of Salem, Massachusetts, to experiencing the hidden world below Prague’s Old Town – travelers have a lot to choose from.

Travelers are also seeking out food-related experiences as a unique way to fully immerse into a destination’s culture and traditions. Cooking classes and street food tours are two of Viator’s top five best-reviewed travel experience categories in 2024. This year’s award-winning experiences offer ample culinary travel inspiration, with activities like a cocktail and food history tour in New Orleans, a hands-on Peruvian cooking class in Lima, and a private street food walking tour in Ho Chi Minh City ranking among travelers’ favorites.
