Describe the day you have in mind
“An afternoon in Taipei with my parents. They like good food, but not too much walking.”
That already says more than “Plan a Taipei trip.” Add your date, starting area and budget if you know them. A nearby station is enough to get going.
Keep the first plan short
Ask for two things to do and somewhere to eat. It’s much easier to choose from a few ideas than a packed timetable.
Then tell it what sounds good: “More bookstores,” “We’d rather take the train,” or “Can we stay in one neighbourhood?”
Leave room for how the day goes
Ask for a rainy-day option, a place to sit down, or a stop you can skip if you’re tired.
If you’re going with children or someone who needs step-free access, mention that early so it’s part of the plan.
Put the stops on your map
Before heading out, look at the route and check that your chosen places are open. Book anything you don’t want to miss.
Save a short version on your phone. You can decide on the day whether you feel like doing everything.
Here’s one way to try it
Tell it what kind of day you want
Give an area, who’s going, what you enjoy and roughly how much you’d like to spend.
Ask for just a few stops
Two activities and somewhere to eat make a good starting point.
Make it sound like your day
Ask for less walking, more time in cafés, or an indoor option if it rains.
Save the short version
Put the stops in your map app and keep a simple list on your phone.
Something to type
Help me plan a relaxed day around [area] on [date]. We’re going with [who], we like [interests], and our budget is about [amount]. Suggest two activities and somewhere to eat, with time for breaks. Add a rainy-day alternative and tell me which opening hours or bookings to check.

A note on this approach:
- Opening hours and travel times can be wrong. Check your chosen stops on the map before heading out.
