Connect Expedia Hotels MCP to Google ADK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Expedia Hotels to Google ADK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Enterprise search with Google ADK
Connect your Gemini-powered agent to global property data. Use `search_regions` to map your user's destination and `search_hotels` to filter results based on your specific criteria. Google ADK processes these results in long-context windows. Your agent can compare hundreds of properties instantly, giving you a detailed breakdown of options for any trip.
Automated itinerary management in Google ADK
Keep track of complex bookings using `get_itinerary`. Your agent can poll this data to update users on their upcoming stays or handle changes. If plans shift, use `cancel_itinerary` to process the change. The tool returns the updated status immediately, which your agent uses to confirm the action back to the user.
Property analysis via Google ADK
Feed `get_guest_reviews` into your Gemini models to analyze sentiment trends. This helps your agents recommend hotels that actually match the user's preferences. Use `get_rate_plans` to see the full list of options. Your agent compares non-refundable vs. flexible rates to suggest the best financial choice for your corporate travel policy.
