About this dataset
Traveling can be an incredibly exciting and rewarding experience; it is the perfect way to break away from the everyday routine and explore new cultures, sights, and sounds. For those planning a travel-related adventure – whether international or local – having access to real-user experiences in the form of advice and recommendations can mean the difference between a fantastic journey and a costly mistake. That's why this dataset of Reddit posts history on 'travel' is particularly useful for exploring Reddit users' opinions, desires, and experiences with their travel endeavors.
This dataset contains information on over 750+ Reddit posts regarding traveling as well as thousands of related comments over an extended period of time. For every post listed, data such as title, score (number of upvotes), URL link to page, number of comments given per post/comment thread, creation date/time stamp for both post/comment threads can be found.
All together these attributes provide detailed insights into user sentiments towards various aspects regarding traveling: What topics are they most interested in? What do they think are the best (or worst) destinations? Are there any tips or pitfalls that could inform our own decisions when embarking on our next journey? All this information resulting from our analysis will give us better guidance when helping us make smarter decisions during our planning process!
