 ABSTRACT

Most of the people in this world like to travel from one place to another no matter
whether it is a small or large distance. The need for a tourism management system that can
manage tourism information with ease is sought after by every tour management company.
Tour Management system is a dynamic website for tourism business. This travel and tourism
application is designed for travel agencies by which they can manage different tour packages
based on the destinations. By using this, the tour company can tailor tour packages spanning
various destinations at almost every price point. Also, the implemented search module allows
the administrator to find and update or upgrade the tour packages with ease. This module
can also even be extended to a customer application page by which customers can find the
right tour package for them at every budget depending on the tour locations. The main
purpose is to help tourism companies to manage tour packages. The system can also be used
for both professional and business trips. The proposed system maintains a centralized
repository to make necessary travel arrangements and to retrieve information easily.

1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 PROBLEM STATEMENT AND OBJECTIVES:

1.1.1 PROBLEM STATEMENT:

The present systems are inadequate in providing information and advices to the
agencies and customers about tour plans. Often agencies are compelled to rely on local
information sources and count on their own experiences regarding time and cost. Through
phone call they have to get information.

1.2 PROJECT OVERVIEW

We have developed an application to provide the best travelling services to the customers and
travel agents. The Tourism Management System provides a search platform where a tourist can
find their tour places according to their choices. This system also helps to promote responsible
and interesting tourism so that people can enjoy their holidays at their favourable places and
develop tourism with different cultures so that they enrich the tourism experience and build
pride. The Tourism Management System is a web-based application. The objective of this
project is to develop a system that automates the processes and activities of a travel agency. It is
tedious for a customer to plan a particular journey and have it executed properly. This project is
developed to replace the currently existing system, which helps in keeping records of the
customer details of destination as well as payment received. The proposed system is highly
automated and makes the travelling activities much easier and flexible. The users can get the
very right information at the very right time. This will increase the trust of the customer into the
tourism company as well. This project is designed with MySQL Server as back end. All the
data will be stored in the server and in case of any data losing situation, a backup will be
available by this server. The details related to every aspect of the tourist will be available
separately. The admins just have to click once and all the details will be available to them.

2 LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 LITERATURE REVIEW SUMMARY

In this competitive world, information communication technology (ICT) introduces
to tourism industry, and bringing a whole new concept called “smart tourism” to our world.
Smart tourism refers to the application of ICT for developing innovative tools in the tourism.
It supports integrated efforts at a destination to find innovative ways to collect and use data
derived from tourism sectors and social connectedness and customers in combination with
advanced technologies to increase efficiency, sustainability and experience.

2.2 PROPOSED SYSTEM

2.2.1 INTRODUCTION:

The proposed system is designed to be more efficient than the manual system. It
invokes all base tasks that are now carried out manually, such as the forms transactions and
reports which is added advantage. The proposed system is completely computer-based
application. This project is developed for a customer where he is able to book new
destination/hotels, cancel the destination/hotels booking details.

2.2.2 ARCHITECTURE/FRAMEWORK:

FIG. 3.2 SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE DESIGN

Travel and Tourism Management System web project has five modules. Those are
given below:
▪ User Authentication: This module is for user authentication. User visit this module and
enter user id and password. If user is new to this site then it goes to user registration page
etc.
▪ User Registration: This module covers the details about the registration of users which
they can be register by itself by adding data like name, password, email id and further
details. After registration they can be sign in by their username and password.
▪ Hotel, Package Creation: This module can only access by admin. In this module, admin
can create package and hotel for customer, which it will be showed in customer homepage.

6
 ▪ Package Booking: In this module maintain the booking of travel packages by the
customer by selecting a various packages with date and certain comments.
▪ Hotel Booking: In this module maintain the booking of hotels by the customer by
selecting a various hotels with date and certain comments.

2.2.4 PROCESS DESIGN:

2.2.4.1 DFD (DATA FLOW DIAGRAM):

DFD is the abbreviation for Data Flow Diagram. The flow of data of a system or a
process is represented by DFD. It also gives insight into the inputs and outputs of each entity
and the process itself. DFD does not have control flow and no loops or decision rules are
present. Specific operations depending on the type of data can be explained by a flowchart.
Data Flow Diagram can be represented in several ways. The DFD belongs to structured-
analysis modeling tools. Data Flow diagrams are very popular because they help us to
visualize the major steps and data involved in software-system processes.

2.2.4.2 USE CASE DIAGRAM:

A use case diagram is used to represent the dynamic behavior of a system. It

encapsulates the system's functionality by incorporating use cases, actors, and their
relationships. It models the tasks, services, and functions required by a system/subsystem of
an application. It depicts the high-level functionality of a system and also tells how the user
handles a system.

2.2.5 FLOWCHART:

A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents an algorithm, workflow or process.

The flowchart shows the steps as boxes of various kinds, and their order by connecting the
boxes with arrows. This diagrammatic representation illustrates a solution model to a given
problem. Flowcharts are used in analyzing, designing, documenting or managing a process
orprogram in various fields.

 APPENDICIES

The total length of the Study was about 4 months. The "Day Dream Travels " started
in the beginning of August 2022 and lasted for 3.5 months. Initially, we started with reading
the content, designing the structure that is how our final project will look like.
Then, we entered into the technical part, searching for the technologies which can enhance
our project.
After this, we started learning the technologies we were not aware off.
After learning all the technologies, we landed over to making our project, that we started with
All the SQL queries to make our database, and ended up with different Java files to perform
different functionality in our project.
