For embedding from other sources you will need to follow the link below or see your sources settings instructions on how to embed videos. You will need to place the embed link in the text of your trip “Full Description” field area.

2.  Follow the steps below this article for a another way to add, or embed, a YouTube video into either a specific trip listing, or onto your organization profile page.

We suggest posting a generalized overview video for your OPV (Organization Profile View) and a more trip specific video, if available, for your particular trip listing. Testimonials from past participants or indigenous leaders/partners, photo slideshows, positive review of your organization are also a great ideas.

The feedback we have received from many people visiting our website and inquiring about trips have expressed wanting more photos and videos from past trips.

Be sure an check it out on the website to see if it is working correctly.
