A note from our co-founders, Dylan and Josh

We're expanding our trips and local experiences.

View this email in your browser Dear Atlas Obscura readers, This past summer, Atlas Obscura turned 10 years old. What started in 2009 as a passion project has grown into a global community far bigger than we ever imagined. All thanks to you. Over the last few years, we've helped to organize over 1,000 local experiences in seven U.S. cities. We have long dreamed of being able to offer these kinds of Atlas Obscura experiences all over the world. Today we're tremendously excited to announce a new partnership with Airbnb that is going to help us make that dream a reality. Over the next year, we'll grow Atlas Obscura Experiences by launching tours, workshops, and events in new cities worldwide. Alongside these shorter experiences, we will continue to expand Atlas Obscura Trips by adding to our incredible roster of domestic and international journeys. From a Namibian wildlife safari alongside expert biologists and photographers to a kayak tour of the Western Hemisphere's largest concentration of shipwrecks near Washington, D.C., you can find a selection of these new trips and experiences below. And now, they will be listed on Airbnb as well as Atlas Obscura. We are beyond thrilled to bring the Atlas Obscura sensibility to curious people the world over! We hope you join us.
