A personalised travel guide, built around your trip and where you are in it
Most travel content is written for everyone going to a place. A personalised guide is written for your trip: your dates, who’s coming, your budget, how you like to travel and anything you need. FigFinder adds one more thing: it asks whether you’re still planning, already booked or already there, and puts first what matters at that point.
What’s in a FigFinder guide
- A day-by-day plan matched to your budget, travel style and group, including dietary, accessibility or family needs
- An arrival playbook: getting from the airport, SIM and eSIM options, ATMs and the local apps worth having
- Destination essentials: entry and visa guidance for your passport when you share it, typical weather, currency, safety, local laws, common scams and etiquette
- A packing checklist for your destination, season and activities
- An offline destination map
- Useful travel services in one place, including travel insurance, doctors abroad, a data eSIM and luggage storage, some with FigFinder discounts
- Booking links for flights, stays and activities if you’re still planning
What changes with your stage
The same destination needs different help at different points. These are the trip summaries FigFinder shows at the top of a guide, built by the same code the guide uses:
Still planning
Example: planning 5 days in Tokyo, 3–7 March, viewed on 1 February.
Already booked
Example: a booked 4-day Lisbon trip, 12–15 November, viewed on 10 November.
Already there
Example: already in Barcelona with 3 days left, viewed on the first day of the plan.
How it changes as your trip gets closer
FigFinder doesn’t track your location. If you save trip dates, the guide works from those each time you open it: a countdown before you go; arrival, staying connected and entry checks first in the final week; and today’s plan once you’re travelling, with the local forecast for the coming days and indoor ideas if rain lines up with an outdoor plan.

What Fig uses to personalise it
Only what you tell Fig in a short chat: your destination and dates, who’s coming, your budget and travel style, and any needs. Fig doesn’t ask for your nationality. If you mention your passport, entry guidance is written for it; if not, the guide explains what to check for your passport, and never assumes it from where you fly from.

Frequently asked questions
What is a personalised travel guide?
A guide written for one specific trip and traveller rather than for everyone visiting a place. It uses where you are going, when, who is coming, your budget, your travel style and any needs such as diet or accessibility, so the plan, the practical advice and what comes first all fit your trip.
How is it different from an itinerary?
An itinerary is the day-by-day plan. A FigFinder guide includes a plan but also the practical side: getting from the airport, staying connected, money, entry guidance for your passport when you share it, safety, local etiquette and useful travel services. And what it puts first depends on whether you are still planning, already booked or already there.
Does the guide update itself?
It doesn't rewrite itself or track you. If you saved trip dates, the trip summary at the top is recalculated each time you open the guide: a countdown before you go, arrival and connectivity first in the final week, and today's plan during the trip. During the trip the saved guide also shows the local weather forecast for the coming days.
What does it cost?
Planning with Fig and the preview are free, with no account needed. The complete guide is a one-off $2.99 (shown in GBP, EUR or AUD for buyers in the UK, Europe or Australia).
