The shopping portal TopCashBack is offering 21% cash back on Viator bookings for today only. While I’m not personally a big fan of Viator because of their pretty customer-unfriendly policies, they can sometimes be the best way to book a particular activity. That’s especially true in situations where Viator offers the best price you can get otherwise and you can stack it with a return like this.

Quick Thoughts

While I was pretty underwhelmed with Viator when they let a tour operator cancel my booking just days before Greg and I were due to go on the tour (not because it was unavailable, just because the tour operator wanted to increase the price — likely because of an increase in the fees they paid to Viator). However, I had a good experience booking the Formula 3000 driving experience on the Grand Prix track at Abu Dhabi through Viator. While their price was higher than booking direct, I was able to click through a portal and book a refundable/cancellable rate and then file a best price guarantee claim. I received both a refund of the difference in price (meaning that booking through Viator cost me the same as booking direct) and the portal rewards (which I expected I might not get after the best price guarantee claim, but this was a pleasant surprise).

During my 3 Cards 3 Continents trip, I again turned to Viator because it had the most comprehensive listing of tour companies and the best way to vet them. I was very happy with Oman Sea Tour for the snorkeling tour where I swam with whale sharks and sea turtles (booked through Viator). Like anything else, YMMV.

If you have it in mind to book activities for a trip, it’s worth taking a look today. Many (most?) activities booked through Viator can be changed / canceled for free up until a deadline, so locking in the portal rewards now makes sense even if your plans aren’t quite 100% certain.

TripAdvisor is coming up with 30 percent off on capital one shopping portal. Stacks with a 5 percent cash back on one of my chase cards.

21% back at Viator via TopCashBack – maybe you will, and maybe you won’t. Proper title whenever you’re talking about TopCashBack.

Shop around. I’ve found klook to be better in both breadth and price, even with cashback factored in.

I booked four trips in France with them in November. 3 were cancelled, one 30 minutes before pickup.
