How do I create my first itinerary?

Updated 2026-08-18

Question

I've never used MagicTrip. How do I make a travel plan?

MagicTrip gives you three ways to create an itinerary:

  • Chat with Biubiu — tell the AI what you want and it plans with you
  • Start from a destination page — click Plan This Trip on a ready-made itinerary idea
  • Convert a trip from the Itinerary Library — Premium users can turn any curated trip into their own

Method 1: Chat with Biubiu

  1. Open Biubiu — the chat bubble in the bottom-right corner of every page.
  2. Tell it what you have in mind in one sentence, for example: *"3 days in Xi'an, we love food and history."*
  3. Answer its follow-up questions about your travel style, pace, and budget — the more you share, the better the plan.
  4. When you are ready, click ✨ Generate Itinerary at the bottom of the chat.
  5. Your structured day-by-day itinerary opens in a new page — tweak anything there, and it stays saved to your account.

Tip: In a hurry? Fill the destination and date into the anchor bar first (see How to use the trip anchor bar) and Biubiu starts with your trip already framed.

Method 2: Start from a destination page

Every destination guide shows ready-made itinerary ideas for that place. If one fits your plans:

  1. Open the destination's page from Destinations and scroll to the itinerary section.
  2. Click Plan This Trip on the one you like.
  3. The trip opens in the planner with every day filled in — adjust anything and it's saved to your account.

Method 3: Convert a trip from the Itinerary Library (Premium)

  1. Open the Itinerary Library and browse the wheel or search for a destination.
  2. Click a trip, then View Full Itinerary to open the day-by-day plan.
  3. Free accounts see a Premium lock here — upgrading unlocks the full plan and the convert button (you land right back on the same trip).
  4. Click Convert to My Itinerary to save the trip as your own, then edit it freely.

Note: Every method ends up in the same place — your own editable itinerary under My Trips. See How do I save, edit, or download an itinerary for what you can do next.

What the finished plan looks like

Once generated, your itinerary opens in the planner with day-by-day activities, times, and notes:
