Recommendation engines for tourism attractions?

Upvote:2

Apart from forums I tend to google for "What to do in xxxx". This will likely give you results on the first page to websites like tripadvisor (as hippietrail suggested in the comment to your question), lonely planet, timeout and similar.

These websites feature what you are looking for to various degree. In general they feature the ability to select an area of interest and suggest places/attractions based on that, such as shopping, museums, "must visit top list" and so on.

The reason I do not link you directly to tripadvisor or lonely planet is simply because regular search engines has a shot at finding those localized websites. In my experience the large sites are much better and widely used in some areas of the world and less in others, so local might be the way to go.

You should bring your ideas to websites like tripadvisor and make them adapt a more friendly website and up to date search, pattern recognition and match making algorithms.
