Just like renting houses and apartments, the hiring of experiences takes place within Airbnb with payments by credit card. Therefore, no extra amount will be charged after hiring the service. Activities can be booked on available days and times on the host’s agenda, which, in turn, displays in the advertisements everything that is offered in the package. Check out, in the following tutorial, how to research and hire typical city experiences using Airbnb.
