Best travel websites
 
There's so much to see and do. Which websites are best at asking the right questions and customizing travel suggestions that match the user's personality and preferences? So far, I'm not impressed with any of them when it comes to helping me walk through what might interest me and even surprise me with travel suggestions I might not have considered. Please advise.

I assume you've explored both Fodor's and Frommer's, but I don't know of too many sites where they do this kind of "hand-holding" (i.e. step-by-step questioning). <BR> <BR>However, one site I really like for US cities is www.citysearch.com. Although it offers the usual kind of "choose your category" and then "choose your list" set of menus, I find it comprehensive and their "Best Of" category is particularly helpful.

Hello, You may want to try <BR>&lt;www.virtualtourist.com&gt;. <BR> <BR>It's pretty interesting. <BR>Fodor's still seems to be more "user friendly" compared to some of the others. <BR>Even though they tried their darnedest to complicate it recently! <BR>Kal

You might try "rough guides to travel" site-not for sure of exact address, but if you type that in the search engine, I'm guessing that'll get you there. I've found it quite helpful for a few trips I've taken.
