Findgid is a service for searching excursions around the world, where professional guides can post their excursions and sell guide services, and travelers can purchase excursions using a catalog with advanced filtering.
The user can register as a traveler to find a tour suitable for himself or his company, book and pay for it, manage his bookings through his personal account, and also communicate with guides to discuss all the details.
Developing prototypes
and interfaces in Figma
The user can register on the platform as a guide, place author's excursions and get new customers using the service, manage bookings and communicate with travelers.
The project has an administration panel through which the administrator approves new guides, has the ability to see all excursions and all travelers, creates cities and countries, and configures the website.
For iOS and Android operating systems, in addition to the web portal, using Flutter technology a mobile app was developed that fully contains all the functionality of the web platform.
