A travel guide written for your trip — not for everybody's.
Tell us where you are going. You get a PDF laid out for A4 — written from your own departure city, to your real dates, your party and where you are staying. It arrives by email in about a minute.

Every destination page on this site is written by the same hand that writes the guides, and they are free to read.
What is in a guide
- Before you go
- Written from your departure city: which documents you need, what the money does, which plug fits, how long the journey is and which way the time difference bites.
- Orientation, and getting around
- How the place is laid out and how you actually move through it — tickets, fares, and what is walkable from where.
- The neighbourhoods
- Which part of town is for what, and why you would go to each.
- A day-by-day plan
- Real stops in a sensible order, one entry per day — your actual dates, with the arrival and departure days planned lightly because they are half days.
- Where to eat
- Places with a reason attached, filtered by what your party eats — vegetarian, vegan, halal, kosher, allergies and the rest.
- Money, transport, safety, opening hours, season
- The five things that ruin a day when you get them wrong.
- Phrases
- In the local language, with what each one means in yours — the guide itself can be written in any language we support.
Why not just ask a chatbot, or read a blog?
You can, and for a weekend you already know how to plan, you probably should. This is for the trip where that stops being good enough.
- It knows where you are coming from. Visas, currency, plugs, flight length and which way the jet lag bites are different answers for someone flying out of Denver than for someone leaving Manchester. Nothing you read for free is written to your departure city.
- It is one file, not forty tabs. A single PDF, laid out for A4, that prints on the printer you already own.
- It works with no signal and no battery. Which is exactly the hour you need it — off the plane, in the taxi queue, underground.
- It takes a minute, not an evening. You answer a short form instead of doing the reading yourself.
How it works
- Say where you are going. Then your dates, where you are leaving from, and who is coming.
- Pay once. Stripe handles the card; the details never reach us.
- Read it, print it, take it. It is on screen in about a minute, and in your inbox as a PDF.
Questions people actually ask
Is this written by AI?
Yes, and we would rather say so than have you find out. A language model writes it against a fixed structure we impose — it returns the sections above as data rather than prose, so the layout is ours, and the day count is checked against your real dates rather than trusted. Every guide then goes through a house-style pass that rejects travel-brochure vocabulary and asks for it again.
What that buys you is a guide written to your trip, in a minute, for $0.99. What it does not buy you is somebody who has been there. If that is what you want, buy a Lonely Planet — we mean that.
What if something in it is wrong?
Tell us and we will fix it or refund you. That is [email protected], and it is a person. Opening hours and prices move, and no guide of any kind is exempt from that, so treat those as a starting point rather than a promise.
Can I get a refund?
If the guide is faulty, is about the wrong place, or never arrives: yes. Because it is written the moment you pay, you are asked at the till to agree to immediate delivery — which is what gives up the statutory 14-day right to change your mind. That is the law for digital goods, it is spelled out in full in our Terms, and it does not touch the guarantee above.
Do I need an account?
No. There are no accounts and no passwords on this site. You get a private link to your guide, and the same link arrives by email.
Will it work for somewhere small?
It should. We resolve against the full GeoNames register — every populated place on earth, some 4.3 million of them, villages included. And if the name you type belongs to more than one place, we stop and ask which you meant rather than guessing, because a guide to the wrong Springfield is worth nothing.
Can I print it at home?
That is what it is for. A4, printable on both sides, page numbers along the bottom. It reads perfectly well on a phone too.
Can I have it in another language?
Yes — you choose on the next screen and the whole guide is written in it. The local phrases stay in the local language, with their meanings translated into yours.
