National Park Trips Media Part of TripAdvisor’s New Launch

Boulder, Colo: National Park Trips Media is one of more than 500 social media influencers, well-known consumer brands and travel companies that partnered with TripAdvisor, the world’s largest travel site, for its Nov. 13 new site and mobile experience launch.

The new TripAdvisor expands its community beyond travelers to brands like National Park Trips Media, so travelers can follow and connect with content creators who share information relevant to their interests. For instance, if a TripAdvisor member is interested in visiting Grand Canyon National Park, she can log into TripAdvisor and discover her home page transformed into a personalized feed of information. When she searches for “Grand Canyon,” a 48-hour park itinerary from National Park Trips Media, along with a friend’s review of a park hotel and a food critic’s article on the best nearby restaurant may appear.

“TripAdvisor is poised to disrupt the travel industry once again as we create a more personalized and connected community,” said Stephen Kaufer, CEO & co-founder of TripAdvisor. “The new TripAdvisor is the one travel site that brings together social-assistive tools, amazing content and our existing booking capabilities to merge the joy of planning and discovery together into a single experience. We are assisting our members at each step of their journey as we become a more personalized, inspirational and useful TripAdvisor.”

National Park Trips Media develops itineraries, tips and stories for the best destinations along the roads to the country’s most popular national parks. Its content is an excellent fit for TripAdvisor members looking to plan an unforgettable national park road trip.

“We are thrilled to be part of TripAdvisor’s amazing new platform that makes it easier than ever for travelers to plan a vacation of a lifetime to our national parks,” says Tori Peglar, co-brand and content director of National Park Trips Media. “We spend every day uncovering the hidden gems of the national parks and the roads to them, so our travelers can spend less time researching and more time having fun.”

Members will be able to follow trusted brands like National Park Trips Media whereas the previous version of TripAdvisor didn’t have that capability. If you are near one of the places reviewed by National Park Trips Media or anyone you follow, you’ll receive a notification. To follow National Park Trips Media, simply log into TripAdvisor, search for our profile page and click on Follow.” Members also will be able to share and repost content to Facebook, as well as post and see videos, articles and curated trips. In addition, members can create “Trips” that can be private or public itineraries or wish lists of things to do while traveling.
