PlanetWare Inc. is a privately held corporation formed in 1995. PlanetWare's founders were inspired to share their love of travel, and set an objective to eventually database every travel attraction on Earth.

PlanetWare is the largest searchable source of travel attractions data on the web and continues to see significant growth. The PlanetWare site helps travelers search for travel gems related to their special interests, provides visit decision details, and serves as a one-stop source for making judgments about the relative merits of tourist attractions.
