My 2 cents (rappen)…..

Front page – The day tour and the night tour fotos or headings aren’t clickable – so how do I get to them?

When you do click on a tour, do you still need the modules on the left? Might be better to have these not there – more space then for fotos of the tour.

Some phrases in Italian would be welcome – how do I order an Expresso, request the bill, ask for that girl’s telefon number in the disco and so on!! 🙂

In bocca al lupo!

TomC’s CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM CORNER

On the whole, nice utilization of the JA Travel template for your site. Just a couple of constructive thoughts . . .

COLOR THEME:
As your site seems to focus on travel within Italy, it seems as though the color theme(s) should be more reflective of colors associated with Italy and Italian culture. Though this may be my own personal lack of knowledge of Italian culture . . . for me, blue doesn’t strike me as “Italian.” Rather, shades/hues of brown/tans, reds, greens … and perhaps some touches of yellows.

LOGO/BRANDING:
I do like the custom logo you have – currently in “pink.” However, the “Milano Party Tours” text/font choice in the middle of the header feels rather plain to me. Again, similar to above, the color theme just doesn’t seem/feel “Italian” to me.

I would like to see your creative logo utilized – but with a bit of expansion/modification to include “Party Tours” in with it – perhaps as an extension of the logo or as a tag line. Think of how your logo could be used on other promotional items – such as stationary, business cards, a Facebook/Twitter page, hats, shirts, tote bags and other swag. You want to make sure it is easily recognized and understandable.

Here is a link to an article on BRANDING[/url] that might be informative for you.

BOOKING OPTIONS:
I feel as though you’ve buried your booking option function at the bottom of your site. One has to scroll all the way down to the bottom to find/get to it. Most of the successful travel sites I’ve seen position the booking options function within the top-third of the site … inviting/tempting users to use the function to check out various travel configuration options and packages. Make sense?

SLIDESHOW:
While I like your slideshow images, many of the overlay descriptions are getting lost/washed out into the background slideshow images. You might want to try experimenting with some different styling for your slideshow descriptions display – perhaps a solid (white or off-white) background with a darker text color (as a suggestion only).

Again, these are simply my own personal constructive thoughts and suggestions for further improving your site’s overall curb appeal. You should be commended for putting in the time in developing and launching your site – and I do hope it is already proving to be a successful venture for you.

ALL THE BEST !!!

😎
