Why Interactive City Tours Are Booming
The travel landscape is changing fast. According to the latest tourism data, international arrivals are set to surpass pre-pandemic levels by 2025, with over 1.5 billion travelers expected worldwide. But what’s really driving this growth? Travelers now crave unique, personalized, and immersive experiences — and interactive city tours are leading the charge.
- 80% of travelers plan trips online and increasingly book via mobile devices.
- Gen Z travelers (nearly 40% of global tourists!) seek adventure, authenticity, and eco-friendly activities, often discovered through social media.
- The “experience economy” is booming, with people valuing memorable activities over material goods.
Interactive city tours — like our scavenger hunts and city escape games — are the perfect answer, blending entertainment, education, and social connection.
