We detected no managed anti-bot vendor on goibibo.com’s homepage. That does not mean the whole site is open: deep pages frequently flip to bot-managed, so check the exact URL you intend to scrape.
Needs a headless browser that runs the site's JavaScript challenge.
Typical access
JS browser
Across repeated probes from different IPs this landed anywhere from Hard–Blocked — anti-bot decisions weigh IP reputation, so expect the harder end from flagged datacenter ranges.
Why it didn’t pass cleanly
Bot challenge
A JS/bot challenge interstitial was served — a browser must run it.
Homepage-level, datacenter-IP snapshot, June 13, 2026.
This is a homepage-level snapshot and can be inaccurate or out of date — anti-bot vendors update their models continuously, deep pages are usually more protected than the homepage, and difficulty is IP-sensitive: a site can read differently from a clean vs a flagged IP and even flip over time. Treat it as a directional signal, not a guarantee.
The homepage is the open front door. On a travel & hospitality site the valuable pages behave differently — here's the plan to characterise goibibo.com before you build.

Find a real deep URL cheaply from the site’s robots.txt and sitemap.xml, then run each through the anti-bot checker. This is an advisory based on the category and goibibo.com’s homepage result — detect the wall, never try to pass a login.
