We recently shared that the TripAdvisor Cities I’ve Visited app would be among a new class of apps to make travel more social through our continued integration with Facebook. Today, we’re excited to announce that Cities I’ve Visited is making its official debut on Facebook’s Timeline!
What does that mean for you? If you love to explore the world, sharing your latest and greatest travel adventures with your friends will now be even more social than ever. That’s because the Cities I’ve Visited app allows you to pin destinations you’ve traveled to on your travel map, and display your map and other travel stats about yourself on your Facebook Timeline. Plus, you’ll not only be able to share past trips, but also be able to get advice on upcoming trips and discover new places to visit from your friends and the 20 million travelers who have pinned more than 1.5 billion cities to their maps.

Great news!!! I have installed the app already! But it doesn’t show as the example above. No totale milage, no list of cities I’ve visited nor % of the world traveled. Anyone any idea how I can get this as the example above?
Hi Kristine – Thanks for your message. For the Cities I’ve Visited app to fully appear on your Facebook Timeline, please go back into the app and pin at least one new city.
Thanks for you tip!
I pinned a new city. Still don’t see total miles. How do I start counting total miles? I looked in the FAQ too. Thx
Hi Donn – Would you be able to try adding a new city to your map from the following link: http://apps.facebook.com/tripadvisortravelmap/ If that doesn’t work, please send screen shots and details on what you’re seeing to socialmedia@tripadvisor.com, and we’ll share them with the team for review. Thanks!
That’s seems really great, just wondering what are you going to do with the other fantastic Facebook app Travel IQ
I enjoy using Cities I’ve Visited, but today it requires me to install Facebook Timeline to continue using. I find Timeline cluttered and will not be moving to Timeline. Will Tripadvisor be offering an option for Cities I’ve Visited users who are not on Timeline?
Hi Jeff – Thanks for your comment. As Facebook continues to rollout their new profile to all users, the Cities I’ve Visited app does now require users have Timeline.
Hi – I enjoyed using CIV on Facebook but don’t want to use FB “Timeline”. In that case, I assume I can no longer use CIV?
Hi Al – Thanks for your comment. Facebook will soon require all users to update their profiles to Timeline. Because of this, the Cities I’ve Visited app does now require travelers to have Timeline, too.

Hi Lissett – Thanks for you comment. For Cities I’ve Visited to fully appear on your Facebook Timeline, please go back into the app and add a new city to your map from the following link: http://apps.facebook.com/tripadvisortravelmap/

Can you please help or I will have to not use your app anymore.
Many thanks

Hi Matt – Thank you for your message. The team has been alerted to this error message. In the meantime, you should be able to access the app using Firefox.
How do I revive all the cities I’ve previously pinned for display on timeline…not planning to re-pin as it’s now a more arduous process
thanks
Hi – Thanks for your comment. In order to have all of your previously added locations show up on your Facebook Timeline, you would need to re-pin each destination. It might be possible to add in destinations pinned before Timeline was installed in the future though, so please stay tuned!
Are you serious?
How does the CIV integrates with the new Timeline then? If every user will have to re-pin everything they already pinned in the past in the CIV to the new Timeline Map, users will just become frustrated and stop using both.
Very not clever marketing, imho.
Hi – Thanks for your comment. We understand your frustration and are working on ways to have past pins display. While the functionality is currently not available, we’ll be sure to keep you posted on any updates or changes.
Wow…you’ve really messed up what was a neat thing. I have to repin all of my 400+ cities? CIV just jumped the shark… So long.
Is it possible to add this app to a wordpress.com blog (that isn’t self hosted)?
Hi – Thanks for your comment. If you click “Add map to your website or blog” on the following link, you’ll be able to share your map to your blog by using the generated code: https://apps.facebook.com/tripadvisortravelmap/
thanks
