Travel search site Kayak.co.uk has extended its reach to include tours and activities.

Results from GetYourGuide and Viator, the two leading providers for searching and booking activities around the world, are being integrated onto the site.

The new feature enables users to search for activities before their departure or directly at their destination.

They can filter and compare tens of thousands of experiences according to their interests.

These include 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.

Kayak senior vice president, Europe, Jan Valentin, said: “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.

“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.

“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.”
