Whole Travel is a travel search engine website based in United States. Launched in 2008, it aggregates information from thousands of other travel sites and evaluates each destination's sustainability in order to help users find and book sustainable vacations. Whole Travel combines search results from hotel websites, online travel agencies, local consolidators and other sources such as larger hotel chains. Whole Travel does not sell directly to the consumer; rather, it aggregates results from other sites then redirects the visitor to one of these sites to complete their bookings. Thus, Whole Travel makes money from pay per click advertising, when the consumer clicks-through to one of the supplier websites. In addition, Whole Travel offers hotels and resorts the option to use a subscription model that provides entry into the online travel market. The company was established in September 2006 by a group of recent college graduates from Stanford University. It is headquartered in Palo Alto, California and works with partners in every region of the world. It received a warm welcome at launch, with articles in media sources including the Los Angeles Times and TechCrunch.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Whole Travel Launches Rating System To Keep Eco-Friendly Hotels Honest )〕 ==Whole Ranking== Whole Ranking is a metric for comparing the sustainability of multiple hotels.
