TripAdvisor Reviews Scraper

Scrape reviews from TripAdvisor as structured JSON — hotels, restaurants, things to do, and cruises. Full review text, ratings, author profiles, sub-ratings, photos, and owner responses — with filters for rating, trip type, language, date, and keyword search.

Fast and reliable: no headless browser, no HTML parsing, no breakage when TripAdvisor redesigns their pages.

Quick start

Minimal input — one or more URLs or location IDs across any TripAdvisor category:

{
  "businesses": [
    "https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g60745-d5572598-Reviews-Ostra-Boston_Massachusetts.html",
    "https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g60763-d93589-Reviews-The_Michelangelo-New_York_City.html",
    "https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g60763-d105127-Reviews-Central_Park-New_York_City.html",
    "https://www.tripadvisor.com/Cruise_Review-d25948295-Reviews-MSC_World_America"
  ]
}

Default: 20 reviews per business. Set maxReviews to 0 for all reviews:

{
  "businesses": ["5572598"],

}

Filter by rating and trip type:

{
  "businesses": ["5572598"],
  "rating": [4, 5],
  "tripType": ["Couples", "Family"]
}
