01 · The Business Challenge

What the company was struggling with

The operator relied on Instagram DMs and shared PDFs to sell trips. Destinations and packages had no single home online, so potential clients couldn't easily compare options or see what was included. Many visitors browse on mobile data, so the site needed to load quickly and make contacting the team effortless.

02 · The Solution I Engineered

How I engineered a lasting fix

Designed and built a statically generated website with Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS. It includes destination pages, tour package pages with itineraries, inclusions and exclusions, an image gallery, and a portfolio of past client trips. Every package page has a WhatsApp inquiry button that opens a chat with the package name prefilled, so the team gets context with each lead. With no backend or database, the site is cheap to host and has little to maintain.
