The agreement gives Travel Pass members access to Viator’s catalogue of more than 400,000 global experiences, ranging from guided cultural tours to adventure activities. Members will receive five points for every $1 spent, while a limited-time promotion offers an additional 10 per cent off bookings made with the code SONESTA10 through to 31 December 2025.
