Tourism Integrated Recommender System: Setubal Peninsula Case Study

Abstract

The diversity and a huge number of different places and attractions can make the decision for tourists difficult. The recommender systems are developed to facilitate people's decision-making process that can help in the area of tourism as well. In this paper, we proposed and implement a recommender system that works integrated with a Setubal peninsula portal to help tourists to choose experiences and points of interest to visit. The implementation was done using collaborative and content-based filtering to make recommendations based on user profiles and activities within the portal.
