NAVITIME Japan, a leading navigation app provider, has started offering a generative AI-based travel planning function on Japan Travel by NAVITIME, a web service for inbound travelers to Japan. They expect that it will be helpful for first-time travelers to Japan.
NAVITIME has provided a generative AI-based ‘NAVITIME Travel AI’ for ‘NAVITIME Travel ‘ for domestic travels since March 2024.
With this function, foreign travelers can enter their departure and destination in Japan and specify the number of days they will stay (between 3 and 10 days) in a dialogue with the AI, and the AI will then suggest a travel plan that takes into account the optimal means of transportation. It will present multiple itineraries ranging from 2 nights and 3 days to a maximum of 9 nights and 10 days, with tourist spots, hotels, restaurants, etc. for each day.
The first release offers Tokyo, Osaka, Aichi, Fukuoka and Hokkaido as destinations. Only one plan is suggested, but it is also possible to freely customize the itinerary. English, Chinese (Traditional and Simplified), Korean, and Thai ate available.
