Witur's New Search Feature

As you have probably seen, Witur is changing its look and we are working to make it easier for you to find the excellent, user-generated itineraries that are on the site.  Now, with the help of Witur's new main page, you can easily search to find just what you're looking for.

If you go to Witur.com, you'll notice a new screen like the one below:

On this screen, you will notice that there are icons for different types of itineraries: Cultural, Travel Diary, Sports, Walking Tour, Nature, Gastronomic, Shopping, and Adventure.  There is also a search box so you can search for itineraries in a particular city, as well.  Let's try clicking on these icons, first.  Let's say you just wanted to browse all of the Cultural itineraries in the entire world.  Click on the Cultural icon, and you will be taken to a screen like the one below:

Not only do you see a map with all of the cultural itineraries listed, but you see a list of all of those itineraries, as well, to the left of the map.  You can click on as many of the icons on the top of the window as you want.  For example, if you wanted Cultural and Travel Diary itineraries, you can click on those two icons and, when highlighted, you will be shown all of those types of itineraries.  

From here, you can click on itineraries from the list, or you can hover your mouse over an icon on the map and a bubble will pop up over the map showing you the title of the itinerary, the picture, a piece of the summary, the user who created the itinerary, and the duration of the itinerary.  You can see an example of this below:

If you like what you see of this itinerary as you hover over it, you can click on the title in the bubble (next to the red arrow below) and you will be taken to that itinerary page.

You can also zoom in on any portion of the map, just like you would in Google Maps by using the slide bar to the left of the map, next to arrow 1 below.  Once you zoom in, a "Refresh" button will appear (next to arrow 2 below).  If you click it, it will refresh the map to show the itineraries in the area you've zoomed to.

If you would like to constrain your search for itineraries to a particular city, you can enter a city name next to the red arrow below and click search.  

When you search for a particular city, you will be taken to a page that shows only the itineraries in that city.  When you get to that page, you can select the types of itineraries you'd like to see by highlighting the icons above the map, just like you did before.  Below is an example of a search for Walking Tours in Barcelona, Spain.  

With Witur's new search features, you can be as specific or as general in your search as you like.  You can search by type of itinerary and/or city as you saw above.  You can also search by username (arrow 1 below), so if you know you like itineraries by certain users, you can search for itineraries he or she has created.  You can select a duration from the drop down menu next to arrow 2 below, and you can select your language from the drop down menu next to arrow 3 below.  When you get your results, you can select how many itineraries you'd like to view at a time by sliding the icon on the bar next to arrow number 4 below.  Sliding it to the left will show you fewer itineraries per page, and sliding it to the right will show you more itineraries per page.  You can also go to further pages of itineraries by going to the bottom of the window and selecting which number page you'd like to view.

One more feature we'd like you to be aware of.  If you highlight the Grid icon next to the red arrow below, you can see a grid of the world and how many itineraries there are in each area.

The grid looks like the window below, and from here you can click on an area of the map to be taken to the itineraries in that area.

With all of these options, it is almost impossible not to be able to find exactly what you're looking for from Witur!

Safe travels!
