Flight meta-search giant Kayak has launched an activities search function.

The travel search engine has integrated results from GetYourGuide and Viator, enabling users to quickly search for activities before their departure or in-destination.

“We are always looking for ways to make the travel planning process easier and by adding activities to Kayak, our users can plan even more aspects of their trip in one place,” said Jan Valentin, senior vice president Europe at Kayak.

“We have great tools to help travellers while preparing their trip, but our activities search will give them inspiration and the possibility to take their planning that step further.”

Users can filter and compare tens of thousands of experiences according to their interests, including sports and nightlife activities, adventure and culture tours, and tickets to museums and attractions.

Once users have searched for and chosen an activity, they will be taken to a provider’s site where they can complete their booking.

Valentin added: “As well as tried and true activities, we’re excited to share experiences which are really unique, like forest Jeep tours in Rio, ice cave adventures in Reykjavik, calligraphy classes or kimono shopping in Tokyo, and Segway food tours in Lisbon.

“We like to help all travellers plan their own one-of-a-kind trip.”
