What our research says

Let's Trip

At $5 a month this is the cheap end of the trip-planner market, and the price tracker is a more concrete benefit than another itinerary generator. Collaborative editing and an integrated map cover the basics competently. The operator publishes no company name or country anywhere, which is a poor look for a service asking to watch your bookings continuously.

Pros

  • Generated itineraries are fully editable, including notes and ordering
  • Continuous hotel and flight price monitoring with alerts
  • Shared plans with in-line chat for a travelling group
  • Genuine free tier rather than a trial

Cons

  • No company name, address or country disclosed
  • No native mobile app
  • Price alerts depend on sources the vendor does not name

Mindtrip

Mindtrip is the most complete of the chat trip planners because the chat, the itinerary and the map are the same object rather than three panes that drift apart. Booking inside the app is what makes it free, and also what shapes the recommendations. Group editing and Google Maps import remove the two chores that usually push people back into a shared doc.

Pros

  • Itinerary, map and chat stay synchronised in one view
  • Imports saved places from Google Maps and can start a trip from a photo
  • Books flights, hotels, restaurants and experiences without leaving the app
  • Free to plan with no subscription gate

Cons

  • Revenue comes from bookings, so recommendations are not neutral
  • No Android app listed
  • Car rentals and tours are still marked as coming soon
