The problem Travel Unravel solves

Travel and tourism industry generates a revenue of 2 Lakh crores in India which accounts to about 8-9 percent of our GDP.
People find it hard make the most of a journey in terms of covering all the aspects like knowing the historic aspects and details a place, having the best meal, discover the special seasonal events (like Neerakurinji Blooming Season occurs only once in 10 years).

Our aim is to make travel experience less hassle-free by understanding the user's needs like preference for locality, suitable guide (based on language proficiency, personality traits, etc), cuisine, means of transport, expenditure type, etc and recommend the best services.

After evaluating the user's preference, we suggest the best places that the user would like to travel considering the season of travel, most trending places, types of places he may like based on co-relation features, etc. For a particular place we recommend the best tour packages, best travel guides who are registered in our platform. Our travel guides are available on hire at any moment and can be met near the door or on the location

For a future proposal, we aim to enable pooling of travel guides, introducing additional options for individual and group travelling.

Challenges we ran into

  • Difficulty in integrating between Django server and client side React
  • Choosing the best recommendation model
  • Time management
  • Arriving at the project idea based on Market research, product feasibility and comparing similar projects
