STOCKHOLM – Popular TikToker Madison Rolley has planned a two-week trip through Europe on a $1,000 approximate budget using ChatGPT. The Digital Nomad Coach posted a video explaining how she instructed the AI-generative tool to design an itinerary of four to six cities, including travel means, travel times between destinations, accommodation expenses, meal costs, three recommended attractions for each city, and their associated expenses.

In the video, Rolley says, “Usually, this would be a very long process using a lot of different software tools and apps, and ChatGPT just sped that up real quick.” She says the results were beyond her expectations. ChatGPT suggested four cities – Amsterdam, Paris, Barcelona, and Copenhagen – for her itinerary, flying into and out of Stockholm from the U.S.

Rolley highlights the comprehensive breakdown provided by ChatGPT. It offered estimated transport and accommodation costs and an estimate for three meals per day throughout the trip and recommended 12 specific attractions in each city. Furthermore, after modifying her query with specific prompts, the AI-powered tool recommended hotels in each city and specific airlines. While the total trip cost came out to be around $2,500, Rolley said.

Rolley has proven that using a tool like ChatGPT to speed up various planning processes that would have required multiple tools and a lot of time to plot out enabling travelers to find budget-friendly options to embark on journeys that won’t break the bank. The viral video amassed over 500k views and 40k likes on TikTok, captivating viewers with Rolley’s cost-saving travel tips using AI.
