AI trip planner
A starter itinerary in one click — then make it yours.
Gate36's AI turns a destination, dates, a budget, and a travel style into a realistic day-by-day plan. It's a head start you can edit, not a black box you have to accept.
Describe the trip, get a real plan
Pick where and when you're going, set a budget and a pace, and choose what you're into — food, history, nature, nightlife. Gate36 builds a day-by-day itinerary with activities, places to eat, and sensible timing, shaped around what you actually asked for.
Budget-aware, not wishful
The plan respects the budget you set, so the suggestions fit the trip you can afford. Each item carries an estimated cost that rolls up per day and across the trip, so the AI plan and your real budget stay connected from the start.
You stay in control
AI-suggested stops are clearly marked, and everything is editable — add, remove, reorder, or swap any item. Keep what fits, change what doesn't. The plan is a starting point that saves you the blank-page problem, not a rigid script.
One place for the whole journey
Once your plan is set, forward your booking confirmations to import them automatically, track spend in two currencies, and map your route.

Frequently asked questions
- How does the AI trip planner work?
- You give Gate36 a destination, travel dates, a budget, and a travel style, and it generates a day-by-day starter itinerary with activities, places to eat, and estimated costs. It takes seconds and works from what you actually asked for, not a generic template.
- Can I edit the AI-generated itinerary?
- Yes — everything is editable. You can add, remove, reorder, or swap any item, and the per-day and whole-trip spend rollups update as you go. The AI plan is a starting point, not a fixed script.
- Does it work for longer trips?
- Yes. The plan covers every day between your start and end dates, and each day gets its own card in the itinerary editor with its own planned spend. Longer trips just mean more days to refine.
- Is the AI trip planner free?
- Gate36 is free to start, and generating a starter itinerary is part of the free experience. It works on the web with iOS and Android apps.
- How do I know which items came from the AI?
- AI-suggested items carry a visible AI marker in the itinerary, so you always know what was generated versus what you added yourself. You can keep them, edit them, or replace them when you regenerate the plan.
