Passage AI is an AI trip planner that builds a day-by-day itinerary you can walk, then guides you through it on foot with the story of each stop. Use it on the web at mypassage.ai or in the Passage AI travel app for iPhone. Your trips sync between the two.
On the day, the Guide turns your plan into a deck of stop cards. Each card has a photo, the distance to the stop and three tabs: Story for the history of the place, Interesting Facts, and Experience for visitor tips. When you get within about 40 meters of a stop, a banner slides in and the arrival view opens with its story.
Tap ▶ Listen to hear the story read aloud. Nothing plays until you tap. Pick from five voices in settings and change the playback speed. Directions opens the walk in your phone's maps app. Mark the stop done and swipe to the next one.

Tap Need tickets? and Passage AI scans every stop on your trip for the ones worth booking ahead: timed-entry museums, popular restaurants, shows, tours and ferries. You get up to 12, most important first.
Each one has a LIKELY or MAYBE tag, a reason in a few words such as "Popular timed-entry museum", and a link to book it. The link goes to the place's official site when Passage AI has one, or to a ticket or reservation search when it doesn't. Stops left off the list appear on one line as lower priority or walk-in friendly.
Tap Add to put the stop on your "Still to arrange" list in the Manage tab. After you book on the official site, save the confirmation number on the stop.

Live tour shows what you're walking past, including places you didn't plan. Turn it on from the Guide and Passage AI looks up public landmarks on Wikipedia within 300 meters of you. You get one card at a time, with What it is, Fun facts and Directions.
Live tour cards are text you read, and they need a data connection. Passage AI doesn't save your live location or add what you find to your trip.

Each day shows as a map with numbered pins and as a list. Between stops you see walking, driving and biking estimates, and each day has its weather forecast. Walking times are straight-line estimates at 4.8 km/h, so the walk on real streets can take longer.

Drag stops to reorder them. To add a stop, search for a place by name, or describe what you want ("a quiet cafe near the river") and AI suggests one.

Tap Optimize and Passage AI reorders the day's stops to cut your total walking time. It keeps breakfast, lunch and dinner near their usual hours, and stops you've booked or already visited stay where they are.
You see a preview first. Each moved stop shows its old position and its new time, and the top line shows how many minutes of walking you save. Nothing changes until you tap Apply, and you can undo it right after. Optimize doesn't use AI, so you can run it as often as you like for free.

Send a link that lets people edit the trip, send a view-only link, or invite people by email. Anyone with the link can read the trip without an account, and signing up with Google or Apple adds them to it. Everyone sees edits as they happen. People with view-only access can still tick off stops in their own Guide, and only they see that progress. If a link ends up somewhere it shouldn't, turn it off and make a new one.

The table compares Passage AI with five other apps you might use as an itinerary planner: Wanderlog, Layla, Mindtrip, TripIt and ChatGPT. Each cell uses only what the company says about its own product on its website or App Store page. "Not listed" means the company doesn't describe that feature there.
