Abstract :
This paper describes the Personal Tour recommender system that helps customers to find best travel packages according to their preferences. Personal Tour is based on the paradigm of the Distributed Artificial Intelligence and a customer recommendation request is divided into partial recommendations that are handled by different agents. Experiments were run with real customers and the results are presented.
