A prompt to turn any LLM into a professional travel planner

2•huizhu•1h ago
Hi HN,

I built a prompt to turn LLMs like ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini into a professional travel planner. Standard LLM responses for travel are often too generic. This prompt forces a structured, detailed output, saving hours of research.

*The benefits:*

* *Saves Time:* One request instead of endless back-and-forth. * *Structured Output:* Get a detailed daily schedule, budget, and transport options. * *Comprehensive:* It covers essentials like emergency numbers, cultural tips, and backup plans. * *LLM Agnostic:* Works with your favorite model. * *Free & Customizable:* It's just text. Modify it as you need.

Here is the full prompt. Just copy, paste, and fill in your details.
