AirBnB Experience Applicaton denied.

[Andrew447]

I am an active AirBnB host and offer to show guests different things around the island of Phuket, Thailand.  One of the most requested thng to do is a motorbike tour hitting all the major attractions on the island.

I recently submitted this as an AirBnB experience.  It was denied saying the experience should be something that the guest could not easily do on their own.

I cannot think of a single thing that someone cannot do easily on there own.  Can someone give me examples of what something like this would be?

@Andrew447:
Airbnb is looking for off-the-wall things for guests to do, not things they could do naturally. For instance, a trip to any tourist location will probably be rejected unless it includes a guided tour led by a knowledgeable person behind the scenes to an area regular tourists would never be allowed to go.

If you have culinary experience you could offer lessons on how to cook Thai food using products sourced from your local street market. I had a great experience once that involved snorkeling, spearing a lobster, taking it back and cooking it. I had to be with a citizen who actually speared the lobster otherwise it would have been illegal to catch it, but talk about fresh food!

The experience I offer is to a hidden cave to see 600 to 1,000 year old Native American pictographs. Since the cave is not marked and you have to hike 4 miles it is not something the average tourist would ever know about or even be able to find if they tried.

Hopefully this will get some creative juices flowing!

Look through the experiences offered around the world and you may be able to come up with a great idea you can use on your island.

I feel that's what I was offering.  A guided motorbike tour to a lot of places tourists can't go to unless they know about it.  I guess anyone can google each of these places.  Just like anyone can easily google the caves near Tucson.  That comes up with many caves with pictographs.  Is the one you are talking about the Black Sheep Pictograph site?

There are literally hundreds of cooking classes with market trips in the immediate area.  Anyone can easily do that.  As with snorkeling.  Easily done.  So is fishing.  All the things are easily done.

Not to be argumentive, but I really don't see anything you mentioned that can't be easily done on their own.
