travel-planner_skill

Overview

This skill plans complete day trips, walking tours, and multi-stop itineraries with time budgets using Camino AI's journey planning and route optimization. It provides opinionated defaults and produces feasible routes, distance and time estimates, and optimization suggestions. Use it to generate walkable city loops, driving day trips, or cycling routes with clear feasibility feedback.

How this skill works

You provide an ordered list of waypoints (lat, lon, and optional purpose) and optional constraints like transport mode and time_budget. The skill calls Camino AI's journey endpoint to compute optimized segments, total distance and time, and a feasibility assessment. The response includes segment-level durations, a human-readable total travel time, and brief analysis with optimization opportunities and suggestions.

When to use it

• Plan city walking tours with multiple attractions and a fixed time budget
• Create driving day trips with several stops and return-to-start legs
• Build cycling routes or fitness rides with target duration limits
• Organize multi-stop business circuits with time constraints
• Validate whether a planned sequence of waypoints fits within a given time budget

Best practices

• Always include a concise purpose for every waypoint to improve route analysis
• Specify time_budget to receive feasibility checks and targeted optimizations
• Choose transport mode explicitly: foot, bike, or car to get accurate durations
• Order waypoints in your preferred visit sequence; the tool checks feasibility and suggests improvements
• Combine with place discovery skills (query, hotel-finder, context) to add relevant stops or nearby accommodation
• For long trips, split the plan into day segments to keep each itinerary manageable

Example use cases

• 4-hour walking tour of Paris covering major landmarks with break suggestions
• 6-hour coastal driving trip with three scenic stops and return point
• 3-hour NYC cycling loop hitting waterfront views and major bridges
• Business meeting circuit with tight appointment windows and parking/drive estimates
• Multi-day vacation planner: build daily segments and pair with hotel-finder for lodging
