TripAdvisor is a popular online platform that provides reviews, recommendations, and information on travel-related content. It was founded in 2000 and has since become one of the largest travel websites in the world. TripAdvisor offers user-generated content such as reviews, ratings, and photos for hotels, restaurants, attractions, and other travel-related businesses. Travelers can use the platform to research destinations, plan trips, and make bookings
TripAdvisor is available for different countries and in different languages: United Stats (tripadvisor.com) Germany (tripadvisor.de), Italy (tripadvisor.it), Spain (tripadvisor.es), France (tripadvisor.fr), Brasil (tripadvisor.com.br) Austria, Holland, Canada, Argentina, Portugal, etc …
TripAdvisor Extractor is a tool that allows you to scrape data from all of these sources. Once the search has been carried out and the data obtained, it will be possible to export all the data to a CSV file.

Step 4. Data Export
At the end of the data extraction click on SELECT and then on EXPORT. You can export the data to an excel, csv or txt file (to choose the type of file to export click on the SETTINGS menu at the top and then select the output format).
NB: The export is only active with the “FULL” version of the program. In the demo version, on the other hand, after 35 captured results, the following window will appear inviting you to purchase the program license (Cick here to access to the purchase page and request the unlimited license valid for 1 year)
PROGRAM SETTINGS
From the program settings, in addition to choosing the format of the exported file, it also allows you to select which data to export. For example, if you are interested in exporting only the advertiser’s name and mobile (or landline) number, select the “Name” and “Phone” boxes and click OK to confirm. This way the exported file will contain only these two columns.
