What is Tripadvisor Trips?
Tripadvisor Trips is a free trip planning tool inside Tripadvisor that builds a day-by-day itinerary from your saves or with AI. You answer a few questions about destination, dates, companions and interests, and it suggests attractions, restaurants and hotels grounded in traveler reviews, which you can edit and share.
Planning a trip often means juggling saved links, review sites and group chats. This tool keeps everything in one plan: save places while browsing, or let the AI propose a schedule based on your interests and what similar travelers liked. Because suggestions come from listings with real reviews, you can check each stop before committing. The site is not a booking agent, so reservations happen on partner sites.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Tripadvisor Trips free?
Yes. Building itineraries, using the AI suggestions and sharing trips cost nothing. You pay only when you book hotels, tours or restaurants, which happens on partner sites because the platform is not itself the booking agent.
How does the AI itinerary builder work?
You answer a few questions: destination, travel dates, who is coming and the activities you like. It proposes attractions, restaurants and hotels drawn from traveler reviews, then assembles your picks into a day-by-day plan you can reorder or trim.
Can I plan a trip with friends?
Yes. You can share a trip and collaborate with travel companions, so everyone sees the plan and saved places in one spot instead of passing links around in a group chat.
