🤖 AI Calculation

Describe the trip in your own words. AI turns provinces, day count and style into draft alternatives; the plan you choose is built by the same auto planner.

🧳 For those in a hurry: Choose one of the 25 ready-made templates like "3-Day Cappadocia" or "Eastern Black Sea" from Ready-made tours in the toolbar, build it with one click — then play around with it.

10Sharing, QR and backup

🔗

Short link

The Share button turns your plan into a short link like gezirota.tr/p/… and copies it to the clipboard. The person opening it views the plan, and can say "make it my own plan" if they want.

📱

QR code

Scan the 📱 QR in the title of each day with your phone — all stops for that day will open on your phone as a Google Maps route.

💾

Download / upload

Backup as a file with Download plan; resume where you left off on another device with Upload plan.

🔒 In the public version, your plan is stored only in your browser — nothing is sent to the server. For a permanent copy, make sure to use "Download plan" or "Share".

?Frequently asked questions

Do I need to sign up?

No. No registration and no login; you start planning the moment you open the app.

Will my plan be lost?

The plan is stored in the browser you use. If you clear browser data, it's gone; therefore, backup a plan you care about with "Download plan" or keep it with the "Share" link.

How do the times and kilometers at the stops appear?

Distance and time between each stop are calculated over the real road network; combined with your stay/meal times, arrival-departure times are formed.

A place looks wrong/closed, what should I do?

Contact us via 🐞 Report bug in the toolbar; you can leave your email if you want us to get back to you. Reports are reviewed manually one by one.

The route turned out too long/tiring.

Lower the "max daily km/hours" from ⚙️ Defaults, or increase the number of days. The system will redistribute the stops according to the new budget.

Can I add a place I know myself?

Yes. You can add a manual stop by clicking on a location on the map or add ready places from the province list to the day.
