About the startup

TryDetour is built for two kinds of travelers: those who want help choosing where to go next, and those who want to learn everything about a destination they already have in mind. With over 8,000 destinations, the platform lets you explore visually through advanced filters from climate, safety, and budget to vibes like “romantic,” “family-friendly,” or “great for solo travel.” Each destination, whether it’s a country, city, or region, comes with a complete guide that blends data and inspiration: best places to visit, cost insights, local atmosphere, alternatives, and best time to go. You can also plan more precisely using tools like the Vacation Budget Calculator and Itinerary Generator. TryDetour isn’t a booking site. It’s an intelligent travel companion that helps you explore, dream, and decide freely, without friction or sign-ups. Core Features 🌍 Smart discovery system with advanced filters (climate, cost, vibe, type of trip, etc.) 🧭 8,000+ destinations (countries, cities, and regions) 🕓 Best time to visit, best places and detailed overviews for each location 💬 Ratings, highlights & alternatives to find similar destinations 💸 Vacation Budget Calculator to estimate trip costs 🗺 Itinerary Generator to build a personalized travel plan
