YourTour.com Launches Website Beta Version

2009-10-05 13:16

YourTour.com has officially launched. The site asks travelers a few basic questions, such as destination and travel dates, and provide an initial trip proposal, including a detailed day-by-day itinerary.

 

The trip proposal recommends area attractions, in a logical order, along with accommodations, and provides precise routing between locations using Google maps. The traveler has the option of interactively customizing the initial trip proposal by specifying more preferences (budget, activity types, specific attractions or hotels, etc.) and requesting a new trip proposal.

 

Once the traveler is satisfied with the trip proposal, he is only a simple click away from booking it. YourTour.com mathematical algorithm takes into account hotel availability, driving time, attractions’ opening days and hours, as well as other elements, to create a trip proposal that best suits the individual traveler, whether they are looking for the most economical offer, or building their dream trip.

 

YourTour’s technology is also being marketed as a white label solution for various travel industry professionals, so that tourism offices, tour operators, hotel chains, and other travel businesses can offer tailor-made self-drive tours to their clients through their own websites.
