As we can see, AI has been transforming human life in countless ways. From virtual assistants like Siri and Alexa to self-driving cars, AI plays a crucial role in every field right now.
But, if I were to ask, what about travel planning? Can AI really make our travel experience more enjoyable and hassle-free?
In this article, we will explore how AI is going to help you with travel planning using the Trip Planner AI tool.
Also, you can join me on my recent day trip to Oslo, Norway, as we put this innovative AI travel planner to the test.

My Itinerary generated by Trip Planner AI
Let’s take a closer look at the itinerary Trip Planner AI created for our day in Oslo:
- 9:00 AM: Viking Ship Museum
- 11:00 AM: Oslo Fortress
- 2:15 PM: Mama Pizza (Yes, pizza in Norway!)
- 4:00 PM: Royal Palace
- 6:00 PM: Frogner Park
- 6:30 PM: Ski Museum (Though we encountered a hiccup here)
One handy feature of Trip Planner AI is its ability to export the itinerary to your calendar, complete with addresses or coordinates to help you get to your destinations.
The Viking Ship Museum Adventure
Our first stop was the Viking Ship Museum, which we reached using Oslo’s excellent public transportation system.
However, here’s where we encountered our first challenge: the museum was closed until 2026.
It’s a reminder that while AI is a powerful tool, it’s essential to cross-check information and stay informed about any updates.
Oslo Fortress: A Historical Detour
With the Viking Ship Museum off the list, we decided to explore Oslo Fortress, which turned out to be a pleasant surprise.
The AI had recommended it, and we decided to take a guided tour.
The audio guide provided valuable insights into the historical artifacts, making the visit enjoyable, even for someone like me, who isn’t a history buff.
Lunch at Mama Pizza: A Unexpected Delight
Lunchtime arrived, and we made our way to Mama Pizza. I have to admit; that I didn’t expect to eat pizza in Norway but Travel Planner AI suggested it, so we gave it a try.
The food was not only delightful but also came in generous portions.
Don’t judge me for using a fork and knife; the thin crust made it necessary, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The Royal Palace and Changing of the Guard
Next on the itinerary was the Royal Palace. The AI had recommended arriving at a specific time to witness the Changing of the Guard, and it turned out to be a fantastic suggestion.
Frogner Park: Oslo’s Green Oasis
Afterward, we headed to Frogner Park which is the largest park in the world with sculptures all designed by a single artist. The park was bustling with people enjoying the sunny weather.
It was a great place to soak up the local atmosphere and appreciate the impressive sculptures.
Conclusion: Trip Planner AI
In conclusion, Trip Planner AI proved to be a valuable travel companion for our day in Oslo. While we encountered a couple of hiccups due to outdated information, it’s important to remember that AI should complement your efforts and not replace them entirely.
Trip Planner AI’s ability to generate customized itineraries based on your preferences and export them to your calendar is a game-changer.
