Airbnb on Tuesday unveiled the much-anticipated relaunch of its experiences offering. Airbnb will add more options for large attractions – particularly through guided tours — though there remains a focus on niche, curated, and locally run experiences.Â
The company also debuted a new services product, which allows consumers to order hotel-like amenities to their Airbnb. And these services aren’t just for travelers: Local residents can also order them.Â
The numbers are potentially big: Airbnb said it would invest up to $250 million and CEO Brian Chesky has previously talked about a goal for launching businesses that could do $1 billion a year in revenue. Do these new offerings check that box?Â
We look into both these opportunities in more detail below.Â
