Adding Destination Information to an Itinerary

Adding Destination Information to an Itinerary

InfoDestination information lets you add free-text sections to an itinerary that are not tied to a specific supplier. Use them to give travellers useful context about each day, from directions and overviews to local tips and free time suggestions.

There are five types of destination information: Directions, Free time, Overview, Explore, and Information.

Adding a destination information item

  1. Open an itinerary and go to the Build tab.
  2. Navigate to the day you want to add to and click the + icon.
  3. Select Other.
  4. Choose one or more destination information types: Directions, Free time, Overview, Explore, or Information.
  5. Use the + button to adjust the quantity if you need more than one of the same type.
  6. Click Add.
  7. Enter a title for the item.
  8. Complete any additional fields: From, To, Start time, End time, and Description.
NotesNote: Only Directions includes both a From and a To field for entering a start and end point. All other types have a single location field.

Destination information types

Directions

Use Directions to guide travellers from one location to another. Enter start and end points using Google Maps integration.

On the Proposal, the item displays imagery from your Media Library. On the Final, it shows the mapped route between the two locations.

Free time

Use Free time to signal an unstructured period in the itinerary. You can include activity suggestions to help travellers make the most of the time.

On the Proposal, Free time displays with an expandable "Read more" section. On the Final, it appears as a standard itinerary item.

Overview

Use Overview to give travellers a broad introduction to a destination or day. It suits detailed descriptions, packing tips, and event information.

On the Proposal and Final, the overview content displays in full as part of the itinerary.

Explore

Use Explore to highlight points of interest at a destination. It suits attraction recommendations, nature walks, and local discoveries.

On the Proposal and Final, Explore presents the location alongside the descriptive content you add.

Information

Use Information to share practical trip details that do not fit elsewhere. Suitable content includes weather forecasts, dress codes, cultural notes, and packing guidance.

On the Proposal and Final, the information displays as a dedicated section within the day.
