Blue Mountains small-group day trip ranks #1 in the South Pacific
Tripadvisor®, the world’s largest travel site together with Viator, the world’s leading tours and activities platform and a Tripadvisor company, today announced the 2020 Travelers’ Choice® awards for Experiences winners. The awards recognize the world’s top bookable experiences - tours and activities - as decided by Tripadvisor and Viator travellers. Tripadvisor also released its winning list of top attractions as a part of this promotion, a list of the top 199 globally.
This year, Tripadvisor and Viator are partnering to announce the Travelers’ Choice Awards for experiences. Bookable experiences on Tripadvisor are powered by Viator, combining Tripadvisor’s power and influence as the biggest travel guidance platform in the world and Viator’s expertise providing the world’s largest selection of high-quality experiences, this is truly the definitive list of experiences that travellers love.
The Travelers’ Choice Awards for Experiences recognize 375 experiences, tours, and activities globally, highlighting the world’s best experiences. They’re also broken down by country, and by category, including day cruises, cultural tours, day trips, multi-day tours, hop-on-hop-off tours, and food, beer, and wine experiences. Winners were determined using an algorithm based on reviews and ratings for bookable experiences over a 12-month period.
“Viator’s global partnership with Tripadvisor ensures that more of the incredible experiences bookable on our site are also available to the world,” said Ben Drew, president of Viator. “No one simply travels to a destination to stay in their hotel room and calls it ‘memorable.’ Viator and Tripadvisor give more travellers the opportunity to experience the richness that a destination can offer, making memories that will last a lifetime -- whether you’re sandboarding in the Arabian desert, or making pizza in a Tuscan farmhouse. This year’s winners illustrate travellers’ appreciation for experiences that are truly unforgettable, and that they’ll remember and talk about for years to come.”
The top global winner this year is a Dubai camel riding and desert BBQ experience, and a day trip to the Blue Mountains captured the top spot in Australia and the South Pacific.
