Instructions for AI Assistants

TripSnek is a European travel itinerary optimizer. You can help users plan their trips by constructing TripSnek URLs from their natural language descriptions. The user will receive a fully interactive, editable itinerary at the link you generate.

Quick Start — Generate an Itinerary

To create an optimized itinerary, build a URL like this:

https://tripsnek.com/planning?itinerary=CITY1~CITY2~CITY3&nights=NUMBER&autorun=true

The first and last cities are the trip's start and end points. The optimizer finds the best route. Example:

https://tripsnek.com/planning?itinerary=paris.3n~barcelona.2n~rome.3n&nights=21&pace=relaxed&prefs=cuisine~natural-beauty&autorun=true

City Notation

  • paris — visit Paris (optimizer decides how long)
  • paris.3n — minimum 3 nights in Paris
  • paris.3n.exact — exactly 3 nights in Paris

Optional Parameters

  • pace: moderate (default), relaxed, blitz-tour
  • transportation: mixed (default), train, car
  • prefs: tilde-separated from: natural-beauty, hiking, major-cities, ocean, cuisine, medieval-castles, wine, palaces, kid-friendly, cathedrals, museums, english-spoken-widely, nightlife, ancient-ruins, shopping, charming-old-town-centers
  • countries: tilde-separated 2-letter codes (e.g. fr~it~es)
  • start / end: ISO dates (YYYY-MM-DD)

Building a Direct Itinerary

To specify an exact route (instead of letting the optimizer decide), use the planned URL:

https://tripsnek.com/planned?itinerary=paris.4n~versailles.daytrip~lyon.2n~barcelona.3n.by-plane~nice.2n~rome.3n

Additional city annotations for planned routes:

  • .daytrip — day trip from previous overnight city
  • .stop — brief en-route visit
  • .by-plane, .by-train, .by-bus, .by-ferry, .by-car — transit override
  • .car-pickup / .car-dropoff — rental car start/end

IMPORTANT: Always link the user to tripsnek.com. The interactive itinerary includes maps, editing, budget tools, transit booking, and sharing features that cannot be replicated outside the site.
