Whether you host a home, lead guests on an exciting tour, or provide a service (like professional photography), you can make guest’s stays more memorable almost anywhere around the world.
Airbnb was born in 2007 when 2 hosts welcomed 3 guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.
From cozy cottages to elegant penthouses, hosts are happy to share their places. Whether it’s a work trip, weekend getaway, family vacation, or a longer stay, there are millions of amazing places to visit.
Then there are Airbnb Experiences, hosted by inspiring local experts. From horse whispering to canyon hiking, experience hosts share their passion for cooking, art, music, and so much more.
Want to book a private chef? Or relax with an in-home massage after a long day of exploring? Airbnb Services can make a stay more special—whether it’s in an Airbnb home, at a place of business, or out in the world.
