    First, find the Web sites of one or more holiday companies who offer the destinations you’re interested in. You’re going to scrape these.

    You don’t say what language you’re using for the implementation, but here is how you might do it in Perl:

    1. Write a scraper using LWP::UserAgent and HTML::TreeBuilder to explore the site and
      extract the destination information.
    2. Use DBI with the DBD::MySQL
      driver to insert the data into your database.
