What is Tripbase?

Tripbase is a travel website that gives you unbiased recommendations about where to go on your next trip based on what you like.

How do I use it?

To use the travel generator, either use your mouse to move the green sliders up or down or simply click on the gray square where you want the slider to end. The sliders tell us how important each of the criteria are for you - from nightlife to attractions.

Submit: This button enters your results into the system. After a few seconds, a number of chosen destinations will appear on the right side of the screen. To explore individual cities, just click on the 'More' button.

What is 'Auto Submit?'
If this box is checked, the system will automatically give you personalized results after every change you make. If you uncheck it, the system will only give you results after you enter all of your information and click 'submit'.

What is 'hide popular destinations?'
Checking this box will bring up less well-known destinations that meet your personal preferences. It's a great way to discover new places.

Dates and Duration: To enter the start date of your trip, just click on the calendar to the right and then fill in the number of days you'll be traveling.

Calendar: (insert graphic arrows) Use these arrows at the top to move by month and the links at the bottom to insert a year.

Departure City: Just enter the first words of your departure city and our system will fill in the airport code. This information is then automatically entered into flight, hotel and car rental searches you do later.

Budget: Enter both the amount you have to spend and the type of budget you have.

Weather: Use the drop-down box to tell us what temperature you're looking for. You can choose Fahrenheit or Celsius in the box to the right.

Tourist Season: Just check the circle that applies to you - any, high or low. Remember that high tourist season usually corresponds to higher prices and bigger crowds, while low tourist season does not necessarily mean bad weather.

Continents: Just check the continents you want to include in the results.

Results Location popup box: Once you've clicked on a destination, you'll get descriptions, information about things to do, photos from flickr and top links. The chart on the left shows the annual weather conditions and tourist seasons. We also tell you what the average cost of a flight to this location from your departure city will cost. To search for flight, hotel and car rentals, click on the buttons at the bottom of the screen. To close the screen, hit the red x in the top right corner. To follow a link, just click on the link. To close the links you've opened, just hit the red x in the top right corner and you'll return to your personalized tripbase destination.
