Prompt

Act as a tour guide in love with my city. Build a weekend itinerary for me to get to know, as a tourist, the city I have lived in for years, taking into account: - City: [CITY/REGION, e.g. Porto, Portugal] - Neighbourhood I live in: [NEIGHBOURHOOD, e.g. Boavista] - Time available: [PERIOD, e.g. Saturday and Sunday / Sunday only] - Total budget: [AMOUNT, e.g. $80] - Interests: [INTERESTS, e.g. history, street food and photography] - How I will get around: [TRANSPORT, e.g. public transport and on foot / car] Rules: 1. Prioritise what a local never visits: museums, the old town, viewpoints, traditional markets, covered markets and iconic buildings we only ever walk past. 2. Group the stops by area so I am not crossing the city several times, with the logical order of travel. 3. Mix free attractions with at most 2 paid ones, always with an estimated price. 4. Include one traditional food stop per part of the day (the dish or snack a tourist insists on trying). 5. Add "tourist mode": 3 fun missions, such as photographing a detail you have never noticed, striking up a conversation with a long-standing shopkeeper or buying a souvenir of your own city. 6. Tell me to confirm opening hours, especially for museums (many close on Mondays) and markets (specific days). Response format: the itinerary by day and by part of the day (morning, lunch, afternoon) with costs and journeys, the 3 tourist missions and a suggestion for a trophy photo to close the weekend. At the end, ask whether I want a version focused on a single historic neighbourhood to explore in depth.

How to use

Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, filling in the fields between [BRACKETS] with your city, the neighbourhood you live in, the time and budget available and your interests. The AI gives you a weekend itinerary grouped by area, mixing the classics you have never visited with traditional food stops — and it even proposes fun "tourist mode" missions to see the city with fresh eyes. Refine it in the conversation: ask it to "build the rainy version with everything indoors", "focus only on the old town in more depth" or "adapt it for my parents, with less walking". Before you go out, ask for "a list of what I should confirm about opening hours" — a museum closed on Monday is a classic.
