Planning budget

3 substantial blocks per day at a balanced pace.

With a 10.0-hour day, that leaves about 150 minutes per block after a 90-minute meal-and-break allowance and 60 minutes of local travel buffer. Replace those allowances with your real bookings.

What this itinerary planner does not know

It does not read live routes, opening hours, tickets, weather, prices or accessibility information. The time budget is a neutral worksheet, not a claim that every chosen activity fits.

Confirm current details with official providers and use the Day Plan Time Checker once you know the travel and visit times.

Editable and printable

Use it as a free itinerary template before filling every hour.

A useful itinerary makes its tradeoffs visible. Start with the parts that cannot move, group the rest by area and leave enough slack to absorb meals, queues and transport. Add an indoor or easier backup for each day, then copy the outline or use the print dialog to keep a paper or PDF version. No account or upload is required.

Give each day a geographic center

Choose one neighborhood or area before adding activities. Nearby stops are easier to reorder when opening hours or energy change.

Place the hard commitments first

Use the anchor field for a timed ticket, day trip or must-do. Keep the second plan flexible instead of making two promises to the same hour.

Keep one practical backup

Add a nearby indoor or lower-energy option for weather changes, closures or a slower day. Confirm current details before relying on it.
