Planning a trip is fun but time-consuming: finding places to visit, mapping routes, and working out a budget. AI can give you a rough travel plan in minutes.
State the destination, number of days, number of people, budget, and your preferred style, for example: "Plan a 3-day, 2-night trip to Chiang Mai for 2 people with a total budget of 8,000 baht. We like cafes and nature and don't like waking up early."
Have the AI plan a route without backtracking, split into morning, afternoon, and evening, with time to rest. Ask for a table so it's easy to read.
Ask for a budget table broken down by accommodation, food, transportation, and admission fees, with suggestions for where to save.
Ask: "Make a checklist of things to pack for this trip, based on December weather." You'll get a complete list without forgetting anything important.
Opening hours and prices may change, so check the official websites of each place before you travel. Read more in Spotting When AI Is Wrong.
Edit your travel photos with AI, see Edit Photos with AI, and make a trip video with Make Short Videos with AI.
The AI can adjust the schedule instantly if it rains or you have extra time.
Tell the AI if young children or older adults are coming along, and you'll get a plan with less walking, frequent rest stops, and places suited to all ages.
Some tools can help you search, but you should book and pay yourself through official channels.
Ask for restaurant recommendations, translate menus, or adjust plans to the actual situation.
AI can plan your whole trip, from itinerary to budget. All that's left is to check the key details and set off. Enjoy your trip!
