  Top-rated things to do on Viator for a search's spot and dates (what the trip is for first, the city's best otherwise), with a second place to look when the row is thin. Pass a searchId from search_stays or city_picks; intent overrides the search's own.
• get_block ~294 tokens
  Ground intelligence for one stay from a finished search: every bar and pub, café, restaurant and grocery within a ten-minute walk (counts, with + when the map read was capped in a dense centre), the nearest stop and the walk to it, and map facts for walking back at night (bars within five minutes, t

  The card for a search by searchId: finished picks with receipts, or its running status. Free and instant.

  Starts the otter's daily re-run of a finished search, emailing the key's account when a verified pick drops 5% or $50 or the cheapest pick disappears. Needs a key (stayotter.com/connect); the first alert is free with an account, more are Pro.
• watch_booking ~433 tokens
  For a stay already booked with free cancellation: pass the confirmation email's text.

  For a whole home already booked (watch_booking, then the first morning's read found the nights taken by the traveller): watches other verified whole homes nearby for the same dates and party, and emails the account when one comes in at least 5% or $50 under what they paid, until their free-cancellat
