Capabilities

Extract travel intelligence directly from the source

Our Tuniu scraper handles complex Chinese anti-bot systems, dynamic pricing calendars, and multi-layered itinerary structures with built-in JavaScript hydration and proxy rotation.

Packaged Tour Extraction

Capture daily itineraries, inclusions, exclusions, departure cities, and supplier details for domestic and international tours.

Dynamic Pricing Calendars

Extract day-by-day pricing grids, stock availability, and child versus adult fare differences across multiple months.

Hotel Inventory Tracking

Monitor room types, cancellation policies, breakfast inclusions, and base rates across Tuniu hotel listings.

Flight Route Mapping

Scrape flight schedules, airline carriers, layovers, and real-time ticket pricing for specific origin and destination pairs.

Verified Review Corpus

Collect user feedback, star ratings, uploaded images, and supplier replies across tours, hotels, and attractions.

Departure City Localisation

Simulate searches from different Chinese tier-1 and tier-2 cities to capture location-specific pricing and availability.

CN Proxy Routing

Utilise mainland China residential proxies to bypass geographic restrictions and access localised Tuniu content.

JavaScript Hydration

Execute complex frontend frameworks to render dynamic pricing widgets and lazy-loaded itinerary details.

Change Detection

Emit only updated pricing or inventory records to reduce downstream processing load and storage costs.

Under the hood

How our Tuniu pipeline handles the hard parts

Scraping Chinese OTAs requires specialised infrastructure. Here is how we maintain data flow through aggressive anti-bot measures.

Mainland proxies
CN residential IP rotation

Tuniu heavily restricts or alters content for non-Chinese IP addresses. We route all requests through mainland China residential proxies to ensure accurate pricing and complete inventory visibility.

Calendar rendering
Playwright execution for pricing grids

Tour and flight pricing on Tuniu is dynamically loaded via complex JavaScript widgets. We use Playwright to fully render the DOM, interact with calendar elements, and extract multi-month pricing arrays.

Bot mitigation
Behavioural fingerprinting evasion

Chinese platforms employ aggressive behavioural tracking. Our crawlers spoof device fingerprints, manage persistent cookie sessions, and introduce human-like delays to avoid triggering security challenges.

Data normalisation
Structuring nested itineraries

Tour itineraries contain nested days, activities, meals, and accommodations. We parse these unstructured HTML blocks into clean, queryable JSON arrays that map directly to your relational schema.

Schema resilience
Multi-selector fallback chains

We deploy multiple CSS and XPath fallback selectors for critical fields like price and stock. If Tuniu pushes a frontend update, the pipeline continues extracting data while alerting our engineers.

Common questions.

About tuniu.com scraping, legality, and pipeline operations.

Ask us directly →
Is scraping Tuniu legal?

Scraping publicly available pricing and itinerary data is generally permissible. DataFlirt extracts only non-authenticated, public information. We do not bypass login walls or extract personal user data. Clients must review their specific use cases against applicable regulations.

How do you handle Chinese geographic blocks?

We route all requests through high-quality mainland China residential proxies. This ensures the Tuniu servers recognise the traffic as domestic, providing accurate pricing and preventing immediate IP bans.

Can you extract dynamic pricing calendars?

Yes. We use Playwright to execute the JavaScript required to load the pricing widgets, allowing us to extract day-by-day availability and fare differences over multiple months.

How fresh is the pricing data?

For targeted flight routes or specific tour packages, we can configure hourly pipelines. Full category scans typically run on a daily cadence, completing within a 4 to 8 hour window.

Do you parse the detailed tour itineraries?

Yes. We convert unstructured HTML itinerary blocks into structured JSON, capturing daily activities, included meals, accommodation details, and transit methods.

What is the minimum viable engagement?

Our minimum engagement typically starts with a defined list of 5,000 to 10,000 URLs or search queries delivered weekly. We provide custom quotes based on volume and frequency requirements.

Can I request a sample dataset?

Yes. We provide a sample extraction of up to 100 tours or hotel listings during the scoping phase, allowing your engineering team to validate the schema and data quality.
