Goals

  • Choose the city that the user wants to visit and see the most trending places to visit in and around it.
  • Check what is around the chosen accommodation, especially useful in big cities or for people that don’t have enough time to take public transport or long walks.
  • Give all the necessary information about the places around: open times, how it looks, how long it takes to visit, history, and the ticket price.
  • Decide not only where, but also how they want to explore the city, providing custom tour routes based on walking, public transport or car.
  • Be able to check what is around the user’s location and around the attractions they are currently visiting, making it easier to draw a route from A to B and from B to C, without having to always start from A.
  • Check nearby cities around the city they have chosen, so the Website can be used to create longer trips as well.
  • Organize the places by available time of the user, choosing between 1 day trips, 2 days trips, 3 days, or one week trips.
  • Sort the places to visit based on popularity in important websites like tripadvisor or lonelyplanet.
