Investor relations
These days, when you’re ready to take a trip and head out into the world for a new adventure, there’s a fairly standard process in place that you’ll likely follow. First, you’ll decide on your destination, dates, and method of travel. Then, you’ll start searching the local area for the perfect place to stay— an ideal mix of a comfy home base and a picture-perfect central location that keeps you close to all the action. Then, it’s time to pack your bags and get movin’— hooray for holiday!
But what happens after you arrive? Chances are, you’ll settle into your vacation rental home and then quickly start searching your phone for the most fun and can’t-miss activities in the area. In fact, most vacation home rental guests confess that they spend a majority of their first day at a new place simply scrolling the internet for local places to visit, directions on how to get there, pricing for certain attractions, and whether reservations are needed or not. Yikes.What if we told you there was a better way? A central place to go where all of the popular activities in a new area were gathered together in one spot, easy to access, and simple to plan a visit to?
You may think it sounds like a full-time job. And you’re right, it is— ours.
A Simple and Streamlined Way to Finding Adventure
One of our main goals at Explorabout was to make finding local adventure as simple and streamlined as possible, making it easy for our users to spend less time searching and planning and more time enjoying their activities. We accomplish this by allowing our users to simply drop a pin in their desired location, then quickly filter, browse, and book that day's adventure.
It’s the sort of intuitive program that’s so smart and simple it almost seems too good to be true— but we assure you it’s not. Explorabout is here to change the whole travel game for the better.
Whether you’re a vacation rental guest, vacation rental manager, or an activity provider, here are the ways that Explorabout can work for you:

Explorabout for Vacation Rental Managers
At Explorabout, we love to support local vacation rental managers who understand that renting a home is only the first step to an exceptional, five-star experience for their guests.

You can use your Explorabout partnership to help market your vacation rental homes in a novel way that helps you stand out from the crowd.
You’ll also be pleased to know that Explorabout operates on a commission-only basis through the activity providers, and is of no cost to you.
Explorabout for Activity Providers
Guided nature hikes, paddle boarding tours, scuba excursions, and mountain biking day trips— these are just a few of the types of activities that Explorabout users are looking for. Right now, we offer adventures in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia, with our sites set on providing activities up and down the east coast and eventually the entire US.
Although we focus on providing activities to travelers, Explorabout can also easily be used by locals to find adventures like yours right in their own backyard. Keep in mind that we require our activity partners to comply with all state and local guidelines for local businesses, and to pay an agreed-upon commission rate for each activity booked through our website.
