ABSTRACT: Pondicherry is a renowned tourist destination, known for its serene beaches, historic sites, and vibrant culture. However, finding the right tourist spots can be challenging due to a lack of a centralized platform. The existing system does not provide a proper application that allows tourists to easily explore attractions. To address this issue, PondyReve is proposed as an innovative mobile-based solution designed to enhance the travel experience for visitors. PondyReve offers a user-friendly interface that provides detailed information about famous tourist attractions, historical sites, and lesser-known gems in Pondicherry. It integrates an interactive map with GPS navigation, allowing users to locate destinations such as beaches, temples, parks, and museums effortlessly. In addition, the app provides reviews and ratings from other travelers, helping users make informed decisions about where to visit based on real experiences. By leveraging technology, PondyReve aims to simplify navigation, ensure tourist safety, and promote local culture and heritage. With real-time location tracking and interactive features, visitors can explore Pondicherry with ease. The app not only enhances the overall travel experience but also supports the local tourism industry by highlighting unique attractions and encouraging sustainable tourism practices.
