Data & sources
Tripadvisor Top Attractions snapshot. The provider’s ranking considers traveler reviews, ratings, page views, and user location. It is not a simple sort by star rating or a count of actual visitors.
We preserve the ten entries and their order from one source snapshot. Ratings and review counts come from that same snapshot. This is the Tampa source list; it does not combine Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Clearwater.
Retrieved November 1, 2026. Indexed 10 months ago at retrieval. This is a historical source snapshot, not a live feed; the source’s current ranking may differ. Retrieval is not a new verification of every venue’s operating status.
Why this city? Over 28 million visitors (2025). Reporting scope: Hillsborough County. More than 28 million county-wide visitors; excludes any claim that this is Tampa municipal attendance. City selection evidence.
