How it helps

Skip the spreadsheet

Planning a route from scratch is the part nobody enjoys. This does the heavy lifting in a couple of minutes, then hands you something you can copy, save and shape to taste. No account, no catch.

The Travel Tinker Itinerary Generator

A real one

What you actually get

Here is a full three-day plan the generator produced, left as it came out. Nothing tidied up, so you can see the shape of it before you spend two minutes on the form.

Salzburg, Austria 3 days Couple Moderate pace Mid-range History, food, outdoors

Day 1: Old town, high fortress

Morning

  • Train in from the airport bus or the Hauptbahnhof, drop bags, then walk down to the river. The old town is small enough that you will not need transport again all day.
  • Start at Mirabell Gardens before the coaches arrive. The Pegasus fountain steps are the Sound of Music ones, if that matters to you.

Afternoon

  • Cross the Makartsteg footbridge into the old town and work along Getreidegasse, looking up at the wrought-iron guild signs rather than into the shop windows.
  • Ride the funicular up to Hohensalzburg Fortress. Give it a couple of hours. The ramparts view over the Salzach and out to the Untersberg is the one you came for.

Evening

  • Dinner at a Gasthaus in the old town. Order the Wiener schnitzel or, if you want the properly local thing, Salzburger Nockerl for pudding. It arrives looking like three snowy mountains and is meant for sharing.

Day 2: Water, salt and a slow lunch

Morning

  • Head out to Hellbrunn Palace for the trick fountains. You will get wet. That is the entire point of them, and it has been since the 1600s.

Afternoon

  • Back in town, duck into St Peter's Abbey and the cemetery cut into the rock face behind it. Quietest corner in Salzburg, and free.
  • Coffee and cake at Cafe Tomaselli. It is touristy and it is also genuinely good, which is an unusual combination.

Evening

  • Walk up to Augustiner Brau in Muhln. You collect a stone mug, rinse it yourself, and carry your own beer. Bring cash and an appetite for the food stalls along the corridor.

Day 3: Out of town

Morning

  • Take the regional train to Hallstatt or the bus to Berchtesgaden, depending on whether you want a lake or a mountain. Both are comfortable day trips. Check the return times before you set off, because the last services are earlier than you would expect.

Afternoon

  • If you chose Hallstatt, the salt mine and the funicular to the skywalk are worth the climb. If Berchtesgaden, the boat across Konigssee to St Bartholomew's is the one.

Evening

  • Back in Salzburg, finish at a Bosna stand near Getreidegasse. A sausage in a bun with onions and curry powder, eaten standing up. Perfect last meal.

Travel Tinker's Tips

  • The Salzburg Card covers the funicular, the buses and most museums. Work out whether you will actually use enough of it before you buy.
  • Almost everything closes on Sundays outside the tourist core. Plan your out-of-town day around it.
  • Pack a waterproof whatever the forecast says. The city sits against the Alps and the weather changes quickly.

Good to know: Every run is different, so yours will not match this word for word. That is the point. The generator writes around your answers rather than pulling a saved plan off a shelf, and you can rework any single day with the tweak button without regenerating the whole thing. Always double check opening days and seasonal closures yourself before you build a day around one place.

Before you fill it in

How many days should you put?

The day count does more to shape the output than anything else on the form. Put too few and the plan sprints. Put too many for a small city and it starts padding.

Trip shape Days to enter What the plan will look like Pace to choose
Small city or town
Bruges, Bath, Salzburg
2 to 3 Everything on foot, one day trip out. Three is plenty and four starts repeating itself. Relaxed or moderate
Big city
Rome, Paris, Tokyo
4 to 5 Grouped by neighbourhood so you are not crossing town twice a day. Room for one big-ticket sight per day. Moderate
Two-centre trip
Lisbon and Porto
7 to 10 A travel day between them, which the plan will account for. Say so in the must-see box. Moderate
Region or road trip
Tuscany, the Highlands
7 to 14 Bases rather than single days. Put your arrival method as Car so the logistics make sense. Moderate or action-packed
Long haul, one country
Japan, Vietnam
10 to 21 Multi-stop, with internal transport built in. Anything over 21 days gets thin, so split it into two runs. Moderate

Tinker's Tip: Count the days you are actually in the place, not the days you are away. A Friday night flight and a Monday morning one is two usable days, not four. Getting this right is the single biggest difference between a plan that works and one you abandon by Tuesday.

Good questions

Itinerary generator FAQs

Everything worth knowing before you build one.

Is the itinerary generator free?
Yes, completely. No account, no email, no limit on how many times you run it. If you'd rather have a plan built for you by a human, that's the paid bespoke option.
How detailed is the plan?
You get a day-by-day plan split into morning, afternoon and evening, with named places rather than vague advice, plus a tips section and practical notes on getting around, etiquette and a few useful phrases. It deliberately avoids clock times, because a plan that says 9:15am is a plan you break by ten past nine. It groups things geographically so you're not crisscrossing a city.
Can I customise the results?
Yes, two ways. Change your interests, must-sees, budget or pace and run it again. Or use the tweak button on any single day to get a fresh plan for just that day while the rest stays put. You can also copy the whole thing out and edit it any way you like.
Can I print it or take it offline?
Yes. The print button strips out the form, the buttons and the page furniture and gives you just the itinerary, laid out so days don't split awkwardly across pages. Use your browser's "save as PDF" option in the print dialogue if you want it on your phone. The download button saves it as a standalone file with your destination and dates on it, which opens in any browser with no internet connection.
Why does it ask about pace and mobility?
So the plan is realistic. A fast-paced plan and a gentle one shouldn't look the same, and a day built around cobbled hills and 200 steps is no good if mobility is limited or you're pushing a pushchair. Those two answers shape the whole thing, so it's worth answering them honestly rather than optimistically.
How accurate is it, and should I double check anything?
Treat it as a strong first draft, not a booking confirmation. It's built by an AI model, and while it's good at shape, sequencing and local dishes, it can't know that a museum shut for refurbishment last month. Always check opening days, seasonal closures and whether anything needs booking ahead before you build a day around one place. Sundays catch people out across a lot of Europe.
Are my answers stored anywhere?
Your answers are kept in your own browser so the form fills itself back in if you come back or refresh, and hitting "start over" wipes that. When you press generate, the trip details are sent to our server and on to the AI model to build the plan. No account is created, nothing is tied to you, and the itinerary itself is never saved on our side.
What if I want a fully custom plan?
Go for a bespoke itinerary. You'll get a time-by-time plan built around your exact dates, preferences and logistics, with one review round before final delivery.
