37 of the Best Web Designs from the Travel Industry

Some great inspiration here. I work in the travel industry myself as a web designer. If only my company wasn’t so damn corporate I’d be able to acheive things like this! Thanks for the post!

What about NG Expedition? http://www.nationalgeographicexpeditions.com/home

I also liked this list of sites.

Toursim Australia also have some pretty impressive designs for their web sites and portals.

I agree with John Chen.

http://www.australia.com

Some great examples of tourism web design, fantastic to see some alpine sites getting a mention.

Villa Bianca Hotel, Lanikai Properties, are my preferite! Are agood examples of tourism webdesign. And sometimes help those who must choose. Thanks for the sharing! Is in my bookmart!

Very nice, some great photography. American states have some awesome sites, wish English counties would follow their lead.

I’m a big fan of Go Glamping and it’s illustrated style, our site uses a similar look.

i really like which looks as web 2.0 designs, hope you share more beautiful stuff in future thanks.

Very nice – like the summertime in Tenesse site

Nice collection, thanks for including my site ausmag.de. Would have been nice to see my travel community http://www.globalzoo.de featured in here too
keep it up!

Great collection! Here’s my smaller collection to add to that… http://shicksdesign.com/onlifeanddesign/index.php/19/top-10-designed-travel-websites/

very business anywhere across the globe has a wish of creating its own online presence. This is the only major reason why most of the organizations need help of the best website design provider services. They require these services to increase the number of visitors and then convert them into sales for their organization. Web design Boynton Beach FL provides the best of the services.

like your collection!
check the website of the swiss travel agent Kuoni http://www.kuoni.ch

wow sweet collection,I will follow this bl;og for now on great content!

Awesome collection! You could also check this out: Bregamo Travel.

Nice collection!
I think one of the best travel-sites is tuifly. A cheap airline.
http://www.tuifly.com/

The majority of these show just how much of a difference a single, strong image can make to a design. Thanks, will bookmark in case I ever get any travel-related design work!

Great list, but is it just me or do you have the urge to travel now?

fantastic!

once again…

Nice list, reminds me that I need a vacation…

Pretty good list. That ‘Monterey’ website looks fantastic! I also liked the ‘Design Hotels’ website.

amazing!!!! they are all sooooooooo beautiful.

Nice post, but the list is a little US-centric. Have a look at http://www.dopplr.com, http://www.joobili.com and http://www.tourdust.com for some cool european travel designs.

Villa Bianca Hotel is by far the best model there. Not that the others aren’t good, they are all beautiful, but Villa Bianca Hotel has the perfect blend of colors to make the site seem calm, refreshing, and the place you HAVE to go to if you want to relax.

But then again, that’s what good designs are supposed to do. They convince you that you’re at the right place even before you read anything.

Great selections!

Just want to say ‘thank you’ for including our Go Glamping site in your list, we’re really chuffed, especially given the fact our site originates from Europe

I love the Summertime in Tennessee site!

web desgin especially for travel industry is a creative work for any designer.

A very nice collections. Awesome. Very Creative. Aptly titled Design Inspirations.

Killa web design bro, i’ll have to nick some ideas

Very cool designs. I liked Lanikai Properties especially.

I really do like the Villa Bianca Hotel web sight, especially the birds that fly across the screen when you open the sight. Full marks to the designers and thank you for bringing all there sight together.

how about A&K?? They have a gorgeous website, http://abercrombiekent.com

I really like this article. Gives a nice overview of the quality of tourism sites out there. Getting a great Website Development. company to develop a website that looks as good as any of these is essential.

Just an amazing list of great design – When it comes to travel sites, the pictures play an amazing role on the overall design of the site.

Shouldn’t Motel6 be on this list? =) Great job on putting together the list.

what about http://www.masocorniolo.it, simple but good enough.

I’d like to add a new site we (the National Park Service) just launched about the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail. The url is http://www.smithtrail.net. Check it out. I feel like it’s as good as some of the sites listed here.

I agree with John Chen.

thanks for featuring our WestCity hotel website

Great to see Signature Attractions on there for Atlantic Canada Tourism Destinations, and Headspace Design as the design firm.

These are great…in the same vain is the new Anne of Green Gables tourism website just launched:
http://www.foreveranne.com for Anne fans, as PEI is perhaps best known for that!

Hi Everyone
Is there any designer out there with time to design a travel website for me, only one city. Very inspiring sites.

Some excellent sites here, I particlarly like the http://www.campr.co.uk site – very clean, clear and easy to navigate. We are flying the flag for the UK in a small way right now – with our local tourist guides – offering comprehensive detailed info.

Glad to see travel web sites are getting better

Great article. Here’s one for your list:

Visit Telluride: http://www.visittelluride.com

They have some really cool designs and navigation! thank so much.

In terms of pure design, http://www.themountaincompany.co.uk has to be up there. The site combines a custom typeface, designed specially for the brand, with stunning mountaineering imagery. Perhaps I’m biased though.

Great examples! I work with travel industry and I know how hard it is to design a good travel website, especially when it comes to conversions. Cheers!

wonderful collection! I like the first site. After looking at the site you can feel the real time experience while looking at the site. I am very happy that I got lots of sample to design my own site. Now I am going to post it in a contest running by grafikguru.com

I am looking for some full flash seite sample for my website ( http://www.irtouring.com )

I was searching for such article, and found your site… great man.. thanks a lot

@James Whitby – Thanks for bigging up Campr! Good work on the Whitby Guide too.

Hi,

Here is a nice website on the Kingdom of Bhutan. The website is http://www.lhayul.com

I designed the website and would love to hear from you’ll on it.

Cheers,

Jigme

Very inspiring website designs.
Full agrree that visual appeal is very important in travel websites.

Great travel Layouts, thanks for sharing!

Really great collection! Especially I liked “Villa Bianca Hotel” and “Live Africa”

I dig Campr as well, and Glamping too, I think that was it’s predecessor? I designed and built http://www.africanbudgetsafaris.com/ which I think may have something different to add to this list.

Great collection I also like the Jordan Tourism Board website http://www.visitjordan.com it is a beautiful website for an amazingly magical country

Beautiful templates. We like our site but wow, these are amazing! I just wonder when it gets to the point where it is overdone?

I am so proud of what Tennessee has done with its web design work. I was the Chamber of Commerce’s executive director for Perry County, before I decided to take the plunge and go fulltime with my own design business, and was heavily involved with tourism for our area. And enjoyed the privilege of learning a lot from the folks I got to know across the state. Look for some exciting websites coming from them as they open the websites for the new Trails that are being developed throughout the state for tourists! Here’s a little shameless plug for Perry County: http://perrycountytennessee.com

WAW! Great work – to collect all these in one place. Beautiful designs, creative and attractive and with unic poin of view. Every mockup has a unic character of its designer. Must have in bookmark for future inspiration. Thanks for sharing.

Great web design each. Looking for one that I can get an idea for a New York Hotel website design. Thanks

Hi,

LUKE, I’d love to be in touch with you and see more of your work. could you sen me your email?
thank you

Some lovely designs there, give me a great incentive to put just as much effort into my own designs.

@Marion

Hi, I have some portfolio bits up at my blog – http://newrelease.co.za/ – although to be honest I haven’t updated that in a while. Been super busy lately all kinds of development and UX design work.

You can reach me on designer [at] newrelease [dot] co [dot] za

Great post once again, these sites make me want to put the extra effort into my own… as time consuming as that is!

Another wonderful post, and to have this information in one place sure makes it convenient. For anyone in travel they should be able to find something here that will be tremendously beneficial.

Really beautiful collection of designs, It’s interesting they all seem to have natural, light colours like blues, greens and nude tones. These colours must evoke the traveller’s “itchy feet” emotion. Essentially the front page must be captivating but depending on the main function of the site, must be user friendly and be clear what the purpose of the site is. I find http://en.escapio.com/ does this well with striking colours and enticing pictures.

Always amazed at the beauty of sites that are devoted to tourism and recreation – in most cases they are very colorful. This post – proof. Thank you for the selection of designs!

Some great designs in there , some of them have definatly giving me some ideas for when I do my next site redesign

Some of the designs are really creative. They really make you wanna book a vacation now but that’s the point anyways. It is really nice to have made a roundup with travel industry sites. Thanks for sharing these.

Those are pretty amazing designs. I just recently got into the travel industry. I tried to focus more on the user interface design than pretty bells and whistles.

What do you guys think?

Great collection! I usually check out SiteInspire, but they don’t have much hospitality/travel stuff, so very happy I stumbled upon this one!

I’m a fan of the Nova Scotia site.

Lovely small campsite on the Costa Brava with amazing De Waard tents for rent. Website is as cozy as the tent lodge.

Thanks for collection of inspirational sites. The best of them use great quality images to grab your attention. I especially like the design of Club Manche Attractive.

I think these designs are based on good photographs. The photo galleries are the most important part of a tourism website

lovely collections. I would recommend http://www.tourismthamel.com, site on Nepal’s most sought after Tourist place called Thamel. Really cool one

definitely have to bring it to my friends via facebook and twitter.

Monterey and Trent Cruising give me the shivers. Simple, but convey the attitude and atmosphere of a prospective traveller/buyer.

some great examples there,I would recommend http://paraiso-jardim.com

Beautiful templates. We like our site but wow, these are amazing! I just wonder when it gets to the point where it is overdone?

Excellent designs… We also created one for our clients, please check – http://www.thinkatrip.com
