TripAdvisor Reviews Scraper

Scrape TripAdvisor reviews, ratings, photos, Q&A & AI review summaries

Paste a TripAdvisor hotel, restaurant, or attraction link and get every review: full text, star rating, subratings, photos, trip type, reviewer details, and the owner's response. Each review also carries the place's own rating, star breakdown, rank, address, and coordinates.

$1 per 1,000 results. No per-run fee. No proxy or browser setup needed.

Works with any TripAdvisor domain: .com, .co.uk, .in, .de, and the rest.

Why this scraper?

• 💸 $1 per 1,000 results, flat, with no per-run fee and no monthly minimum.
• 📚 Big pulls in one run: 10,000+ reviews from a single place.
• 🗣️ The reviewer's own words. Reviews TripAdvisor only shows machine-translated come back in the language they were written in.
• 🏨 Place data on every row: overall rating, review count, star breakdown, rank in its city, address, and coordinates.
• 🆕 Only new reviews since a date, so a scheduled run picks up just what's new and you don't pay twice.
• 🎯 Filter before you scrape by star rating, traveler type, month posted, language, or keyword. You only pay for the reviews you want.
• ⭐ Category subratings where TripAdvisor has them: Value, Rooms, Location, Cleanliness, Service, Sleep Quality.
• ❓ Questions and Answers with the actual answers, which no other TripAdvisor scraper returns.
• 🤖 AI review summary per place: an overall summary plus a per-topic breakdown with quoted review snippets.

TripAdvisor reviews scraper vs. the official Content API

What you care about	Official Content API	This scraper
Reviews per place	Only 5, most recent	All of them
Photos per place	5	Up to 7 on each review
Q&A and answers	Not available	Yes
AI review summary	Not available	Yes
Approval / registration	Required, B2C apps only	None
Commercial data analysis	Not allowed	Your call
Price	Pay-as-you-go after approval	$1 per 1,000 results

The official API caps you at 5 reviews per place and bars commercial analytics, which is why a scraper exists.

How to scrape TripAdvisor reviews: step by step

1. Create a free Apify account. Takes 30 seconds, no card needed.
2. Open TripAdvisor Reviews Scraper in the Apify Console.
3. Paste one or more TripAdvisor page URLs. Optionally set filters under Review filters, or turn on Q&A and the AI summary under Extra data.
4. Click Start. Most runs finish in seconds; 10,000 reviews from one place take about five minutes.
5. Export as JSON, CSV, or Excel, or fetch via the API.

For monitoring, schedule the run and set Only reviews posted on or after to a period like 7 days.

How much does TripAdvisor Reviews Scraper cost?

Pay only for what you get:

• Per 1,000 results: $1.00
• Free plan: the $5 monthly Apify credit covers roughly 5,000 results.
• Starter plan: the $29/month plan covers about 29,000 results.

A result is one review, one question, or one AI summary row. No per-run fee, no subscription lock-in. If you set a spending limit on a run, it stops at that limit and never bills past it.

Use cases

• 🛡️ Reputation monitoring: Schedule a run with 7 days to collect every new review, rating, and owner response for a property or a whole portfolio.
• 🔍 Competitive benchmarking: Compare places by rating, star breakdown, subratings, rank, and trip type, with the place data already on each row.
• 📊 Sentiment analysis: Pull thousands of reviews in the reviewer's own language for NLP or LLM pipelines.
• 🧑‍💼 Response audits: See which reviews got an owner response, who answered, and how fast.
• 🧭 Travel research: Use the keyword filter to find what guests say about breakfast, noise, or parking.
• ❓ Traveler intent: Mine the Q&A section for the questions real travelers ask about a place.

Limitations

• Keyword search tops out at 1,000 reviews per place. That's TripAdvisor's own limit on its review search.
• Visit date is month and year only. TripAdvisor doesn't show the day.
• Each review lists up to 7 photos. photoCount gives the real total when a reviewer posted more.
• Dates follow TripAdvisor's display. A review posted in the first hours of a month can show the last day of the previous month, while the month filter still counts it in the new month.
• AI summary exists only for some places. TripAdvisor generates it for popular locations; for others this row is simply absent.
• Sort is most recent or detailed. There is no highest-rated sort; use the rating filter to slice by stars instead.
• Public data only. No reviewer emails and nothing behind a login.
