Travel like someone is keeping watch.

A travel companion across the whole journey — from dreaming up the trip to the quiet flight home. Tell it a place, a feeling, a window of dates — or a screenshot of somewhere you saw.

02Three phases

A companion that crosses all three phases with you — not three apps wearing the same logo.

Phase 01

Dreaming

Before you've decided where.

Tell the AI a feeling, not a city. It surfaces destinations from 8,500+ cited guides, asks the right second question, and helps the trip find its shape.

Companion

It’s spring in Kyoto right now. Want to talk about it?

You

Maybe somewhere quieter for a first solo trip?

Companion

Lisbon’s the answer most people regret missing.

Phase 02

Plotting

Once you've committed.

Live fares from major airline data feeds. Lodging cross-checked across partners. A day-by-day itinerary the AI can reroute, swap, or rebuild — just ask.

Phase 03

Walking

While you're on the road.

The companion stays with you. Weather pivots, opening-hours changes, advisory updates, flight delays — the trip is adjusted in the background and you're told what changed, not asked to decide twice.

Day 2 · 09:30 · Lisbon

Your 14:00 closes early today. Three nearby alternatives, all open until 20:00 — I’ve held the closest one.

03Real places

Pinned to real coordinates, photos from every stop.

Each stop sits at its true location on a Mapbox dark map. Each card carries the venue’s own photograph — see what you’re walking into before you walk in.

04What the companion sees

The interventions you don’t have to ask for. A few it might.

Day 4 · Kyoto

Tokyo's koyo arrived a week early. I can slide your dates by five — your ryokan has flex through Sunday. Want me to ask?

Day 2 · Tokyo

Your 14:00 closes early today for a private event. Three nearby alternatives are open until 20:00 — I've held the closest one.

Pre-trip · 06:42 local

Fares to Lisbon dropped 11% this morning. I'm holding a draft itinerary at the new price.

Day 6 · Amalfi

Storm system tomorrow. I've moved the boat trip to Friday — your skipper is briefed and the cost holds.

Returning · 23:14

Your flight home shows a 90-minute delay. The lounge is empty right now — I've added a quiet table by the window.

These are real intervention shapes. The companion subscribes to fare feeds, weather forecasts, opening-hours data, and US State Dept / UK FCDO / CDC advisories — and surfaces only what changes.

05Cited, not synthesised

Every recommendation carries a footnote. The companion knows what it’s saying because it’s reading from somewhere.

“I built AskJourneys after spending forty hours juggling Google Flights, Reddit threads, weather sites, and a spreadsheet — for one trip. I wanted a companion, not a search engine.”

06Questions

The kind people actually ask.

Q.01Is AskJourneys really free?

Yes — free to use, no card required. We earn affiliate commissions when you click through to book on partner sites, which keeps the planning side free.

Q.02Are the flight prices real?

Yes. Live fares pulled from major airline data feeds at the moment you ask — not stale estimates and not hallucinated numbers.

Q.03How is this different from a chatbot?

A chatbot waits to be asked. A companion notices when something changes — fares dropping, weather pivoting, your 14:00 closing early — and surfaces only what matters, when it matters.

Q.04Where do destination details come from?

An indexed library of 8,500+ Wikivoyage articles (CC BY-SA), searched with hybrid vector + keyword retrieval. Every recommendation carries a footnote.

Q.05Can I edit the itinerary?

Ask the companion to reroute the day, swap stops, or add and remove days. The map and the itinerary stay bound — edit one, the other follows.

Q.06Do I need an account to start?

No — start planning right away. Sign up later to save trips across devices and get email alerts when fares drop.
