Moms make it happen. And this Mother’s Day, while you may not be celebrating with her in person, you can inspire her with these amazing virtual experiences, which can all be found on KAYAK@Home.

For the mom who loves science and history

Many know the tragic story of Pompeii, and your mom has read almost every book that covers it. Give her the gift of an expert virtual tour. For an hour, she can explore the grounds of this former Roman city and get an inside look at what archaeologists found there.

For the mom whose favorite tool is a pasta bike

Missing mom’s home-cooking? For the lady who considers herself a master of the kitchen, give her the gift of a live pasta making course. For an hour and a half, she can get her hands dirty with amazing tips and tricks taught by a pasta master.

For the mom who taught you the difference between Degas and Cezanne

While you can’t see the masterworks of Impressionist painters, modern artists and ancient sculptors in person, you can treat mom to a tour of New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art.

For the mom who’s the founder of your local historical society

New Orleans has that Southern charm we need right now. Gift her with a virtual tour of its lush and historic Garden District. For an hour she can go on a storytelling tour that will take her through the city’s rich culture and history.

For the mom who’s a little bit extra

The golder, the better is her model. Which is why she’ll appreciate an escape to the iconic Versailles. Set her up with a decadent dessert (and maybe some noise-canceling headphones) so she can enjoy the hour-long tour.

For the mom who just needs to zen out

Adult coloring books became popular for a reason. To help you experience the world while you stay home, we created Krayon. Find coloring pages for travelers of all ages, which you can fill-in right in the KAYAK app (iOS only) or download to print and color at home. At the very least, it affords mom a few minutes of quiet time.

BONUS: For the mom who enjoys a good night out

She must be going stir crazy. And while mom can’t dine at her favorite restaurant right now, you can bring the restaurant experience to her. Our friends at OpenTable can show you delivery and takeout options nearby so that you can treat mom to a special night in (or gift her with a restaurant gift card for when she can sip her favorite Malbec at her favorite table).

For more exciting virtual experiences for mom (or anyone else you love), head to KAYAK@Home.
