For travelers, Web surfing used to mean scrolling through a few major booking sites and a handful of user-friendly hotel and airline pages. Now, the choices are dizzying. To make your life a little easier, we've picked the top 28 sites you need to know.
When it comes to travel, the Web continues to grow. New search engines like Kayak.com are sprouting up, and older sites like Hotwire.com are expanding capabilities. To find the best the Internet has to offer—from adventure tours to wireless hot spots—we sifted and searched through hundreds of travel-related sites, looking at their user-friendliness, functionality, and even aesthetics. Below, the sites you should bookmark immediately.
Adventure A travel agency and tour operator founded in 1999, iExplore.com lets you book thousands of tours worldwide and provides extensive details on each. We like the ratings on difficulty, comfort, and exclusivity, too.
