Why it works
Planning a trip properly takes many hours of cross-checking that most travellers will not do, and the value is in verified timings and the practical layer - the inspiration half is already abundant and free.
How it makes money
One-off project
How to start
- Choose a region you know or can learn deeply; generic itineraries are already free.
- Interview the traveller about pace, budget, mobility and what they want to avoid.
- Build the route around realistic transit times rather than map distances.
- Use Perplexity for options, then confirm opening hours and prices on the operator's own site.
- Never publish a booking detail from an AI summary; these change constantly and a closed museum ruins a day.
- Book nothing on the client's behalf - supply the links and let them transact.
- Include the practical layer: transfers, luggage, reservation windows, quiet days.
- Lay it out day by day in Canva as something usable on a phone offline.
- Add alternatives for weather and closures.
- Charge a fixed fee per trip by length and complexity.
- Follow up afterwards and fold what went wrong into the next itinerary.
