Ask HN: Siri for Travel
Hello folks,
I am starting to make a website which is something like siri for travel effectively meaning that given the constraints like "I have 1 week of vacation", "I have 1000$ budget", "I am interested in hiking" or "I am interested in drinking wine" or even "I dont want to go farther then 100 miles" the app will plan a trip for you including details like which place to go, what attractions to visit there, what to eat etc?.
Just throwing my idea to you guys to see if you guys think people will like to have a minimal effort website for their travel plans which will give them recommendations based on their taste.
Thanks
Nishant
- brackin 15y agoHow would you be able to use any technology to match Siri. I recommend you build an SMS service that does this and maybe finishes by sending you a link to pay or something. As Siri works with SMS. Not sure about this though. I like Hipmunk for hotels and flights. It's probably the best in the travel space but isn't exactly like this.
- pacifi30 15y agoWhen I say siri for travel, its basically saying something like "Plan me a trip" and these are my requirements, I dont care what you plan but it should be awesome. For the version 1, I am planning to launch something like if you go from place A to B, what are the places that you can visit on your way. I came to this idea when I was travelling from Page AZ to Zion National Park Utah and there were numerous attractions on the way that I didnt even knew about.
- profitbaron 15y agoYou should have a look at http://www.hidentify.com/ http://www.hidentify.com/ who are attacking a similiar idea/problem albeit in a different market.
- pacifi30 15y agoI highly doubt these guys are doing any recommendations stuff that I am targeting.
