Viator Tours and Experiences Scraper
Scrape Viator tours and experiences by destination or activity, up to a million per run. Every listing returns its title, price, rating, review count, duration, and direct booking link. No API key required. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
Viator's official API requires partnership approval and rate limits that slow down market research. This actor reads the public tour and activity search feeds directly, filtered by any destination or activity keyword you provide, and returns each matching listing in one consistent flat schema. It is built for travel analysts, tour operators, and affiliate marketers who need bulk tour data without writing a single line of code.
| Who uses it | What they scrape Viator for |
|---|---|
| Travel affiliate marketers | Build a searchable database of Viator tours with direct booking links for content sites. |
| Tour operators | Monitor competitor pricing and review scores across a destination. |
| Destination marketing organizations | Catalog every bookable experience in their region to spot gaps in the local tourism offering. |
| Data journalists | Analyze pricing trends and review distributions across popular tourist cities. |
What it does
This Actor collects Viator tour and activity listings by destination or activity search query and returns each one as a flat row with its title, price, rating, review count, duration, and booking URL.
- π Destination or activity search: enter any term like 'Paris tours', 'Eiffel Tower', or 'Rome food tour' and the actor returns every matching listing.
- π Flat row output: each tour comes as one row with title, price, rating, review count, duration, and a direct Viator booking link.
- β‘ High volume ready: set maxItems up to 1,000,000 to pull every tour in a destination in a single run.
Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check your search query spelling. Viator search works best with destination names or specific activity phrases like 'Paris tours' or 'Eiffel Tower'. Very broad single-word queries may return zero results. Try a more specific phrase.
The actor returned fewer tours than my maxItems setting.
This is normal. The actor stops when Viator has no more matching listings for your query. If you searched a niche activity in a small town, there may be fewer tours available than your limit.
Some tours are missing prices or ratings.
Viator listings sometimes show 'from' prices or omit ratings for new tours with no reviews yet. The actor returns whatever Viator displays publicly. Missing fields will be empty in your output.
The run timed out.
Large searches with high maxItems values can take time. Increase the run timeout in your actor settings, or reduce maxItems and run multiple smaller searches.
I need reviews, not tour listings.
This actor scrapes tour and activity search results only. For customer reviews, search Apify Store for a dedicated Viator reviews scraper that extracts review text, ratings, and traveler photos.
FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Do I need a Viator API key or login? | No. This actor reads the public Viator search pages that anyone can visit in a browser. No API key, no OAuth, and no Viator account are required. |
| What data does each tour row include? | Every row returns the tour title, price, average rating, total review count, duration, and the direct Viator listing URL. The exact fields are shown in the sample output above. |
| Can I scrape tours from multiple destinations in one run? | One run handles one search query. To cover multiple destinations, run the actor once per query, or set up multiple scheduled tasks, one for each destination you track. |
| How many tours can I collect? | You set the maximum with the maxItems field, up to 1,000,000 per run. The actor stops when it hits your limit or when Viator has no more matching listings. |
| Does this actor scrape reviews? | No. This actor collects tour and activity listings from Viator search results. If you need customer reviews, look for a dedicated Viator reviews scraper on Apify Store. |
| Can I filter by price or rating? | The actor returns every listing that matches your search query. Filtering by price, rating, or review count is done after the run, in your spreadsheet, database, or code. |
| What output formats are supported? | You can export your dataset to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML directly from the Apify platform. |
| Can I schedule this to run automatically? | Yes. Apify supports scheduled runs. Set it to daily or weekly and your dataset updates with the latest Viator listings without any manual work. |
| Is this an official Viator product? | No. This is an unofficial scraper built on Apify that reads publicly available Viator search pages. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Viator, Inc. |
| What is the difference between this and the Viator API? | The official Viator API requires a partnership application and has rate limits. This actor reads the public search pages directly, so you can start collecting data immediately with no approval process. |
