With Circuit Breaker extended until June 1, we’re starting to pace around the house like a penguin in an obstacle course. But instead of letting our brains turn to Dalgona coffee mush, we’re going to take a few virtual trips around the world with Airbnb Online Experiences. Come join us, friend!

There are family friendly activities like learning the secrets of magic. In this 90 minute experience, you’ll be entertained by a magic show before learning the tricks of the trade yourself. There are options for work colleagues who want to reconnect and bond with team activities like making coffee with a professional coffee taster. There are experiences for pet lovers (and fans of HBO’s Chernobyl) like virtual visits with the dogs of Chernobyl. You could even learn cooking with a Moroccan family.

Airbnb Online Experiences are a new way for people to connect, travel virtually, and earn income during the Covid-19 crisis. Airbnb Online Experiences like meditation with Buddhist monks can calm and soothe the soul during this uncertain time. Plus, there are features for groups looking to celebrate birthdays or get togethers privately and the option to request specific dates for Experiences like bartending with experts.

Online Experiences unlocks unprecedented access to inspiring hosts from more than 30 different countries, including Olympic medalists Alistair Brownlee and Lauren Gibbs. Whether a HIIT workout, learning about nutrition with a Bobsledder or a virtual bike tour, guests can now connect with some of the most celebrated athletes in the world from the comfort of their own living room.
