Get an OAuth2 access token as with any Amadeus self-service API.
Call GET /v1/reference-data/locations/pois with required latitude and longitude query params for the center point.
Optionally add radius (in kilometers) to widen or narrow the search circle.
For an area/bounding-box search instead of point+radius, use /v1/reference-data/locations/pois/by-square with north/west/south/east coordinates.
Parse response items for name, category, subType (POINT_OF_INTEREST), geoCode, rank, and tags.
Combine with a hotel or destination lookup to power a 'nearby attractions' feature.
Known gotchas
DECOMMISSIONED 2026-07-17: Amadeus shut down the Self-Service APIs portal — self-service API keys are disabled and the portal is inaccessible as of this date. These endpoints remain available only through an Amadeus Enterprise contract (Enterprise portal unaffected). Self-serve alternatives: Duffel, or an aggregator. Do not attempt self-service key registration; it was paused before shutdown.
Coverage is biased toward major tourist destinations — sparse or empty results in smaller cities, especially in the test environment.
radius is optional and always in kilometers, not miles; a larger radius won't produce more results if the area itself has thin data coverage.
The response includes a category/tags field per POI, but the documented query params center on lat/long/radius (or the bounding box for by-square) — don't assume an arbitrary category-filter query param exists without confirming it against current reference docs.
