Full prompts below. Save for your next trip! ✈️ ALL 10 PROMPTS 🧳 (swap the [brackets] for your details. Use a model with web search on.) 1. DATES "Search current sources for [place] in [month]. Skip weather averages. Tell me: peak, shoulder or off season? What will be CLOSED (attractions shut for maintenance, seasonal restaurants, reduced transport)? Any local holiday or festival that makes it brilliant or unbearable? Cite your sources. If you can't confirm something, say so rather than guessing. If [month] is a bad call, name the better month." 2. WHERE TO GO "Budget £[X] for [N] nights, flying from [airport], in [month]. We want [3 things]. Suggest 5 destinations. Exclude anywhere that appears on a 'top 10 places to visit' list. For each: one reason it fits, one reason it might not. Then pick your top choice and commit to it." 3. NEIGHBOURHOOD "[N] nights in [city]. We want [walkable / good food / quiet at night]. Recommend ONE neighbourhood to base ourselves in and TWO to avoid, with the specific reason for each (noise, distance, safety after dark, dead at night). Assume we're walking home at 11pm." 4. REVIEWS "Go and find recent guest reviews for [hotel name, city]. Focus on the 2 and 3-star ones, ignore 5-star and 1-star. What do the complaints have in common? Which would actually bother someone who cares about [sleep / quiet / breakfast]? End with a straight yes or no: book it or don't." 5. REAL COST "Look up [hotel A], [hotel B] and [hotel C] in [city] for [dates]. Work out the true total for [N] nights including tax, resort fees, parking, breakfast and wifi if charged. Rank by real cost, not headline rate. Flag any where the advertised price is misleading. If a fee isn't published, say so." 6. ITINERARY "Build a [N]-day plan for [city]. Rules: one anchor activity per day, nothing before 9am, afternoons stay loose, and one full day with nothing planned. If it doesn't all fit, CUT things, don't compress them. Tell me what you cut and why." 7. WHAT TO SKIP "For [city]: what would someone who's lived there ten years tell me to skip? For each one, what would they send me to instead, and why the alternative is genuinely better, not just quieter. Search local sources, not travel listicles." 8. WHAT TO BOOK "For [city] in [month], search current booking info. What genuinely needs reserving in advance? Split into three buckets: book now / book a week ahead / just turn up. Cover restaurants, timed-entry attractions and transport. If something's fine to walk into, say so plainly. Flag anything you can't verify." 9. AIRPORT TRANSFER "[Airport] to [neighbourhood/hotel], arriving [time], with [luggage]. Give me the cheapest option, the fastest, and the least stressful. Then pick ONE and tell me why. Assume I'll be tired and won't want to problem-solve." 10. RED TEAM "Here's my plan: [dates, flights, hotel, rough itinerary]. Act as a pessimistic travel agent. What's most likely to go wrong? What have I assumed that might not be true? What's the one thing I've forgotten? Be blunt. If the plan's genuinely fine, say so, don't invent problems." #chatgpt #prompt #ai #holiday #trip
