Prompt

Act as a travel guide who specialises in day trips. Suggest 3 destinations within the radius I give you and build the hour-by-hour itinerary for the one you recommend most, taking into account: - Starting city: [CITY/REGION, e.g. Manchester, UK] - Maximum distance: [DISTANCE, e.g. up to 150 km] - Means of transport: [TRANSPORT, e.g. own car / intercity coach] - Company: [WHO IS COMING, e.g. a group of 4 friends / family with older relatives] - Budget per person: [AMOUNT, e.g. $90] - Vibe I want: [VIBE, e.g. waterfall and hearty food / a small historic town / the coast] Rules: 1. Give the distance and a realistic driving time for each destination, allowing for weekend and bank-holiday traffic. 2. The itinerary must have times: departure, arrival, the morning plan, lunch, the afternoon plan and the latest time to head back so we are not driving at night. 3. Estimate the costs: fuel or tickets, tolls, lunch and attractions, closing with a total per person. 4. Warn me about what tends to close early or not open on Sundays and Mondays. 5. Do not invent attractions: if you are not sure something exists at that destination, describe the type of attraction and ask me to confirm before going. Response format: a table comparing the 3 destinations (distance, driving time, total cost per person, main draw), then the hour-by-hour itinerary for the one you recommend and a short "take this with you" list. Finish by asking whether I want the detailed itinerary for one of the other two.

How to use

Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, filling in the fields between [BRACKETS] with your city, how far you are willing to drive, the transport, who is coming, the budget and the vibe you want. The AI gives you a table comparing 3 nearby destinations and an hour-by-hour itinerary for the best of them — with the departure time, the stops, the costs and the cut-off for heading home before dark. Adjust freely in the conversation: ask it to "redo it leaving at 6am", "swap the waterfall destination for one with less walking" or "recalculate the costs for 2 cars with 5 people each". Before you set off, it is worth asking for "a list of what to confirm by phone or online today" to check opening hours.
