Retrieve detailed information about a specific place on Tripadvisor by its place ID. The response varies based on the place type: - **Attraction**: Activities, tours, and things to do with listings and questions - **AttractionProduct**: Bookable tours and experiences with pricing, itinerary, and operator details - **Destination**: Cities, regions, and countries with travel advice, itineraries, and tips - **Hotel**: Accommodations with booking options, amenities, and room details - **Restaurant**: Dining establishments with menus, cuisines, and reservation status - **Airline**: Airlines with alliance info and subratings

- **Tool id:** `searchapi-io-tripadvisor-place`
- **Provider:** [SearchAPI.io](/providers/searchapi-io)
- **Job:** [Tripadvisor place search](/reference/jobs/search-tripadvisor-place) (`search.tripadvisor-place`)
- **Price:** $0.004 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

## Inputs

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `engine` | string | no | Fixed to "tripadvisor_place" for this endpoint. Example: "tripadvisor_place" |
| `place_id` | string | yes |   |
| `tripadvisor_domain` | string | no |   |

## Output

Shape of the run's `result`, checked against 1 real answer:

```txt
{ place: { link, type, title, nearby: { transit: { ... }[], airports: { ... }[] }, photos: { title, original, thumbnail }[], rating, address: { region, street, locality, postal_code, country_code }, reviews, place_id, amenities: { text, category }[], thumbnail, room_types: string[], subratings: { text, value }[], all_reviews: { id, date, text, title, votes, author: { ... }, rating, travel_date, travel_type, original_language }[], description, photo_count, price_range, room_features: string[], booking_options: { rooms, adults, guests, offers: { ... }[], check_in_date, check_out_date }, gps_coor... ...
```

The shape is cut here. Signed in, `looot inspect searchapi-io-tripadvisor-place` prints all of it.

## Run it

Every call needs your API token in `LOOOT_TOKEN`; [Sign in](/get-started/sign-in#use-the-token-in-scripts-and-agents) shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With `wait: 30` the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll `GET /v1/runs/<runId>`.

Example input with placeholder values:

```bash curl
