A system receives a query from a user specifying a geographic location at which the user wishes to obtain data relating to travel experiences. The system obtains a first score associated with a first travel experience and a second score associated with a second travel experience, the first score being different than the second. A score is based on at least one quality indicator of the experience. The system defines a plurality of differently-located virtual boundaries around the travel location, each successive boundary indicating an area located at a greater distance from the travel location. The system then displays to the user a list of experiences, wherein the experiences are rank-ordered before presentation to the user. The rank ordering of experiences is dependent on both the virtual boundary into which the experience falls and the score associated with the experience.
