How this actor works

See example inputs, outputs, API usage, and practical limits before running this actor on Apify.

Open Apify page

Export public Tripadvisor hotel, restaurant, and attraction reviews to a structured dataset. Collect review text and ratings together with reviewer details, management responses, photos, subratings, place metadata, and source provenance.

Use the results for guest-feedback analysis, reputation monitoring, hospitality research, review aggregation, and BI or AI pipelines. Teams can scrape Tripadvisor reviews through the web interface or use the Tripadvisor reviews API workflow through Apify. Supply one or more Tripadvisor place URLs; the Actor handles pagination, duplicate removal, filtering, and partial multi-URL failures.

API usage

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/fetch_cat~tripadvisor-reviews-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"startUrls":[{"url":"https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g60763-d208453-Reviews-Hilton_New_York_Times_Square-New_York_City_New_York.html"}],"maxReviewsPerUrl":20}'

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('fetch_cat/tripadvisor-reviews-scraper').call({
  startUrls: [{ url: 'https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g60763-d208453-Reviews-Hilton_New_York_Times_Square-New_York_City_New_York.html' }],
  maxReviewsPerUrl: 20,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

Python

import os
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient(os.environ['APIFY_TOKEN'])
run = client.actor('fetch_cat/tripadvisor-reviews-scraper').call(run_input={
    'startUrls': [{'url': 'https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g60763-d208453-Reviews-Hilton_New_York_Times_Square-New_York_City_New_York.html'}],
    'maxReviewsPerUrl': 20,
})
items = client.dataset(run['defaultDatasetId']).list_items().items
print(items)

The run's default dataset can be exported as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS. Use Apify integrations to send results to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, webhooks, or your own application.

MCP and AI agents

Connect the Actor to an MCP-compatible client through https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch_cat/tripadvisor-reviews-scraper.

Claude Code CLI

claude mcp add apify --transport http "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch_cat/tripadvisor-reviews-scraper"

MCP JSON configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch_cat/tripadvisor-reviews-scraper"
    }
  }
}

Example prompts:

  • “Export the 50 latest English reviews for this Tripadvisor hotel and summarize recurring complaints.”
  • “Run the Tripadvisor Reviews Scraper for these property URLs and return a CSV-ready dataset.”

Your agent can start review exports, inspect run status, and consume structured datasets without custom scraping code.

Limits and reliability

  • Public Tripadvisor place URLs only; search pages and private/account data are unsupported.
  • A run accepts up to 20 URLs and 500 reviews per URL.
  • Date and language availability follows the public review data.
  • Output is saved progressively. If one URL fails, successful URLs remain available unless failOnError is enabled.
  • Source changes, rate limits, or temporary anti-bot challenges can cause partial runs; retry failed sources later.
  • Respect Tripadvisor's terms, applicable privacy rules, and local law. Do not use the Actor to profile individuals or collect sensitive data.

Tips

  • Start with 20 reviews and increase the limit after checking the output.
  • Use sourceUrl to group results from batch runs.
  • Combine startPage with a fixed sort order for controlled continuation.
  • Leave ratings and languages empty to avoid filtering out valid reviews.

Support

If a valid public Tripadvisor URL fails or the output shape changes, open an issue from the Actor page and include the run URL and a non-sensitive example input. We maintain the Actor as Tripadvisor evolves.

Common questions

Questions and answers reused from the canonical actor README.

Does it work for hotels, restaurants, and attractions?

Yes. Provide a public Tripadvisor detail page containing a place ID in its URL.

Is there an API for Tripadvisor hotel reviews?

Yes. Run this Actor as a Tripadvisor reviews API using the Apify API, JavaScript/Python clients, CLI, webhooks, or MCP.

How can I export Tripadvisor reviews to CSV or JSON?

Run the Actor, then download its default dataset as CSV, JSON, Excel, XML, or RSS. It exports repeatable structured data with pagination, filtering, and deduplication.

Why are some fields empty?

Travel dates, photos, subratings, reviewer location, and owner responses are optional and are not published on every review.

Can I request more than the platform limit?

The current limit is 500 reviews per URL and 20 URLs per run. Split larger jobs into multiple runs using startPage.
