Building a Widget Based on a Destination or Category
Step 1a
In a new tab or window, navigate to viator.com and search for the destination or category within a destination that you want to feature. In our example below, we used the search bar to find unique experiences in Rome.
Step 1b
Once you search for a destination or category, copy the URL from viator.com and paste it into the “Destination or category” section of the widget builder
Step 1c
Select the number of tours you’d like to show, the language your widget will display, and the currency your widget will display. You also have the option to add campaign tracking.
Step 2
Use the widget preview on the right to show what your widget will look like once it goes live on your site. If you’re content with this, copy the code and add it to your site.
