Multi-host experiences

A Withlocals experience is multi-host when more than one local is attached to the same experience listing. The product page on withlocals.com is flagged as multi-host whenever the number of attached locals is greater than one.

How it works

Withlocals Originals are shared experiences: a single listing with one title, description, itinerary, meeting point, photos, and price, offered by a group of hosts in the same city. When you join an Originals experience from your recommendations, you're added to that shared listing as one of the hosts.

On the experience detail page in your host dashboard, the Basics tab shows an Other locals section with the photos of everyone else hosting the same experience. The message reads "These are your fellow hosts who are offering this experience."

When a guest views the experience page on withlocals.com, they can pick which local they'd like to book with if multiple are available.

What you can and can't change

Because the listing is shared, the title, description, itinerary, meeting point, photos, and price of a multi-host experience come from the Withlocals team, not from individual hosts. You can't edit them from your host dashboard.

What you can do on the experience detail page:

  • Read and submit community notes on the Manage tab to share tips, questions, or local updates with the other hosts on the experience.

  • Leave the experience from the Manage tab if you no longer want to host it.

  • Set a per-experience book-ahead exception if you need more notice than your default.

Your own availability is still fully under your control: you manage it through your agenda and your book-ahead time.

Your own host offers are not multi-host

Host offers you create through the offer form are attached to you only. They don't automatically become multi-host, and you don't share them with other locals.

Good to know

  • A Withlocals Originals experience is always multi-host in principle, even if only one local is currently attached.

  • Leaving a multi-host experience only removes you from that listing. The other locals keep running it.

  • You can offer both multi-host Originals and your own host offers at the same time.
