Super helpful site when planning a trip or checking restaurants, you can find the tiniest places and the reviews have always been very trustworthy. I use it all the time and try to give new input as well when I discover something that I think is worth sharing.
Trip Advisor is not so different from the other travel sites. However, what I really like best about this site are the amateur photos taken by the travelers. For example, if you are looking for a hotel, you would see more than 50 amateur photos that simply show you what the hotel looks like in actual. Honestly, I don't think I can find that elsewhere. You would normally see pictures taken by the hotel themselves, so it's usually very much edited.
This site is easy to navigate and has helpful reviews. It recently came in handy while I was booking a vacation for my family in Florida.
Great website made by them always help us to given our reviews.
We made the proof of concept regarding Restaurants in our Home City of Antwerp.;-) Its ok, but shows, that the recommondations are made by tourists and mostly not by locals... we have other choices. But it still helps, we found some good davice on various trips.
I was desperate with my husband when we wanted to go to Tanzania, because we weren't able to decide where to stay. We wanted to be perfect. Thanks to a review and a reviewer, we were able to make an itinerary and choose hotels and had the best ever holiday in Tanzania and Zanzibar. Best for hotel reviews, everything else is just ok.
The best site for your travel needs. I always use Travel Advisor to verify all the information about cities and countries
This is a web site I always use to read (and post) reviews. I do find that some of the reviewer's 'private agenda' may require you to read all the reviews and evaluate what is being said holistically. For example, I was mugged in Lima, Peru so I posted my experience. It was interesting to see what seemed like "tourism police" A. K. A. 'tourist guides' trying to downplay my posts. They bullied the forum and painted a false sense of security rather than contributing positive, truthful and helpful information. So when I read post on foreign destinations I evaluate all the posts, the dates they were posted and also look at the list of post a particular contributor has (if they dominate the conversation) to see if I see a trend that would tell me they are sales agents. I also try to corroborate with other sources.
The reviews and easy access is great. The detail and the options are just so vast you dont know where to start
I can't travel or even move without a quick look on tripadvisor!
The website is amazing and their smartphone app even better. I can get accurate distances and reviews to top restaurants and locations.
The site is really good for choosing the hotels worldwide, but however I did not get a good hotel apartment which was positively rated. The booking was done by my company, but there were so many charges that was incurred on me for a 1 week stay in dubai in a hotel apartment.
Lots of quality information on this website. Very useful!
Really love this site for reviews and general info about where I'm staying and eating. 5 stars!
For travel to a location I haven't been to before, a little quality time on Tripadvisor.com is essential for checking out hotels prior to booking. However, I use the averages as a loose guideline only and am I'm careful to read both ends of the ratings, paying particular attention to the details on the bad ones.
For restaurants, they're not so good. For me, their NYC restaurant reviews are worthless. The reviews seem to get swamped by tourists whose tastes, budgets and expectations are radically different from mine.
Great website to read and write reviews, but do not believe 100% :)
It is very difficult to gather all necessary information when planning a trip, especially a trip to a different country. Google search results could be voluminous. Luckily, Tripadvisor save me the trouble.
This is one of the mos trusted review site for travellers. If you are looking for real reviews of properties you want to visit, you should drop by this website first.
Whenever I am traveling, I am checking out the location I am going to. I definitely don't want to get my trips ruined with bad experiences, so this site is a must use for any traveler.
