The site is based upon drupal 7 using the Drupal Commerce module as well as several modules, as well as using some ideas from the commerce kickstart distribution.
The site’s theme is built from omega and omega kickstart which helped the site to get completed within it’s time constraints which otherwise would not have been possible.

The site also allows users to orders without needing to login to an account which could loose some potential customers, but all customers would get an account created for them whose details would be emailed to them. They would only get the account details when they complete their order, so it means that potential customers who leave the site before completing the order are not sent a welcome email, which would cause issues.

The excellent Drupal commerce module allowed multiple tickets to be accessible via the same page so for Magic Your Way Ticket with water park fun & more it allowed the various days available which are 1 to 10 days and adult/children option to be a single ticket which allows customers not needing to use various pages to find the ticket they want. It also allows the content to be altered if there were any differences from adult to children or over the different pages.

The site was developed using Drupal 6 and Ubercart 2.  I found Ubercart to be extremely flexible as for instance the necessary fields for the date of travel were easy to add and to theme for the site’s look and feel.  I was also able to change the product pages layout easily,  for example when there were multiple prices associated with an item all prices are shown to the customer in an easy to read format.

The gotoexplore site has an image rotator on the homepage which the client wanted, so they could display offers that they wish to promote.  The homepage allows customers to view the most popular tickets and subscribe to an RSS feed that will keep them informed.  Gotoexplore’s main RSS feed shows the new tickets that gotoexplore are able to sell, meaning customers will be able to see the new tickets gotoexplore have without needing to visit the site.

Gotoexplore.com was tested against all modern browsers Firefox 3.5, Internet Explorer 8, Chrome 2, Opera 10 Beta and Safari 4.  The site was also tested on older browsers but it was optimised for the current browsers.  Gotoexplore was also tested against other browsers such as Lynx, Midori and Chromium they all displayed without issues.
