This project was done for a client looking to expand their business. The design is clean and features a monochromatic color scheme based on their company colors. The home page has a content slider for testimonials and the footer contains a dynamic calendar of upcoming trips using the Google calendar API. The quote pages uses some PHP to send structured emails to the site owner when a customer is interested in booking a trip.
