TripAdvisor Scraper — Hotels, Restaurants, Attractions

Scrape TripAdvisor hotels, restaurants, and attractions at scale. Extract ratings, reviews, addresses, phone numbers, geo-coordinates, price ranges, and amenities. Fast HTTP-only scraper — no browser needed. 3 modes: details, reviews, search.

$3 per 1,000 results — 40% cheaper than competitors.

What Does It Do?

This actor scrapes TripAdvisor data using three modes:

1. Details — Get full metadata for hotels, restaurants, or attractions (name, rating, address, phone, GPS, price range, amenities)
2. Reviews — Extract guest and visitor reviews with titles and full text, paginated automatically
3. Search — Scrape listing pages (Hotels, Restaurants, Attractions) for a city or destination to get a ranked list with ratings

HTTP-only architecture means it runs faster and costs less than browser-based scrapers. No Playwright, no Puppeteer, no wasted compute.

Tips

• Any TLD works — paste URLs from .com, .in, .co.uk, .de, or any regional variant. The actor normalizes all URLs to tripadvisor.com automatically.
• Details mode defaults — if no urls are provided, the actor scrapes The Plaza in New York as a demo. Good for testing.
• Reviews paginate automatically — 10 reviews per page, using the -or{N}- URL pattern. Set maxReviews to control how many you get.
• Language filter — use the language field to narrow reviews down to a specific language (e.g., "en" for English). Important limitation: TripAdvisor does not embed language metadata in the HTML for most reviews, so reviewLanguage is null for the majority of scraped reviews. When a language filter is set, reviews without language metadata are excluded (not passed through). In practice this means filtering by language will return very few or zero results with the current HTML-only extraction approach.
• Search mode uses listing pages — pass a URL like https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotels-g60763-New_York_City_New_York.html or https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurants-g60763-New_York_City_New_York.html.
• Supports hotels, restaurants, and attractions — the mode and type are inferred from the URL structure (Hotel_Review, Restaurant_Review, Attraction_Review).
• Rate limiting — the actor adds a 1.5-second delay between review pages to avoid triggering blocks.
• DataDome bypass — TripAdvisor uses DataDome protection. This actor uses an iOS Safari User-Agent which currently bypasses it from most datacenter IPs. If you encounter persistent blocks, contact support.
