What You’ll Get

A day-by-day itinerary with specific attractions, restaurants, times, and costs. You can adjust on the fly, but you’ll have a solid plan that balances your interests with realistic timing and budgets.

Why This Prompt Works

• Specifies travel style: Adventurous travelers want different activities than relaxed ones; the AI personalizes accordingly

• Includes logistics: Timing, transportation, and costs are built in so the itinerary is actually realistic and executable

• Balances interests: Mixes must-see attractions with optional activities so you see priorities but have flexibility

• Provides food recommendations: Where and what to eat is often 30% of the trip experience; this prompt ensures you eat well

How to Customize This Prompt

1. [NUMBER]-day — How many days are you traveling (3 days, 7 days, 10 days)
2. [DESTINATION] — City and country (e.g., “Barcelona, Spain”, “Tokyo, Japan”)
3. [NUMBER] people — Solo, couple, family, group (helps with restaurant booking sizes)
4. [BUDGET] — Total or daily budget (e.g., “$2000 total” or “$100/day”)
5. [INTERESTS] — Your top 3-4 interests (history, food, nature, art, shopping, nightlife)
6. [TRAVEL STYLE] — How you like to travel (packed schedule vs. leisurely)

Pro Tips

• Ask for variations: Get 2-3 different itineraries (adventurous vs. relaxed) and mix the best parts

• Request budget breakdowns: Ask “What can I cut if I want to stay under $[amount]?” for flexibility

• Add dietary restrictions: Mention vegetarian, allergies, or other food preferences so restaurants match

• Request maps and logistics: Ask “What public transit do I need for this itinerary?” or “Create a map showing walking distances”
