Travel Website

I am looking for a script to start a travel website. It'll not be for booking & stuff, we'll be reviewing destinations, hotels, restaurants & stuff.

 

No scripts exist ?

What if I use Joomla, will it be of any use ?

 

hmmm if you find one let me know

 

Sounds like a great job for wordpress.

 

Wordpress is really easy but it's going to be a blog.
If you want a website, give Joomla a shot but I've heard some good things about drupal too...

 

I'm using wordpress for my 2 new travel sites. they are just niche article sites that aren't "blogs" by the customary definition..

 

I've got a site that I never got around to finishing... but it's a travel related site, it's a custom script that I wrote. It gets live data from a travel parter, users can book hotels through it (sort of, that's what I never finished). Plus there's tons of other hotel related data.... I haven't had the time to get back to it and have been considering getting rid of it. PM me for the URL if you think you might be interested.

 

hey mikelbeck, sounds interesting and i may be interested in purchasing....could you pm the url to that site? thanks

 

i use WP for my travel site.

I use Website Baker for my travel site (link in sig) and it has about 420 pages and counting..the url development and easy to use templates, and the ability to change the way things work so easily make it an easy choice for what I need - without having to convert blog software to CMS capability.

 

Im having a developer make one for the back end of my site right now after job is completed Ill let you have a look at it and you can contract him if you would like

 

What features are you looking for? if it's just for reviews, maybe you can use a news/article management script.

 

one more vote goes to joomla. you can add those properties to joomla with gpl components

 

You should evaluate wordpress / drupal / joomla -- if they don't meet your needs then consider a custom script.
