Airbnb's photo tour sorts your listing photos room by room, the same way for every host in your market. Once it's on, you only control the order of your first 5 photos.

In this episode, we walk through what Airbnb's AI changed this year, how our team turns the photo tour off, and how to check what guests actually see.

  • What Airbnb's AI changed in the 2026 Summer Release
  • Why the photo tour makes listings look alike
  • The 1 empty room that keeps the tour off
  • What to leave out of your first 5 photos
  • The AI setting that doesn't do what hosts think
