This new feature is possible due to a partnership with Gogobot, a city guide service. Travellers will be able to explore the city they are going to thanks to Gogobot's [travel guides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tripadvancer). This also makes it easier for people to become immersed in the local scene right away.
