Dedicated to helping you make the most out of your vacation, The Local's Guide is a collection of HomeExchangers’ recommendations from all around the world.

At HomeExchange, we believe that travelling shouldn't just be about ticking to-see boxes off, it should be about meeting local cultures, discovering unknown places and travelling as a participating guest, not as a spectator.

So, thanks to our community, we now have a map sharing HomeExchangers' favourite local recommendations.

Discover the map

We're offering this map complimentary for the HomeExchange community. For other users, a one-time payment of €3 is needed to access the map.
