How to use the Adónde connector

In any chat with Adónde connected, say adonde help or adonde demo. A card asks what you want to see: a route, hotels, tours, flights, your trips, or starting a trip. Tap one and the assistant runs a real example, then offers to run it with your own place and dates.

Three prompts to try:

• "Suggest a route for 11 days in India, 2 adults, culture" (a map card with numbered stops, nights and why)
• "Hotels in Madrid April 5 to 10 for 2 adults, cheapest first" (hotel cards with photos, prices and Book buttons)
• "Food tours in Madrid on April 7" (tour cards with prices and links into Adónde)

1. What kind of trip? Pick one of four tiles: Abroad (one or more countries), Road trip (start, end, stops by drive time), Weekend (two or three nights, close to home) or In my country (domestic cities). The card moves on to the next step; Back or the step tabs at the top return to it.
2. Where? Type in the search box and pick from the list; each result is tagged Country, Region or City, and each pick becomes a numbered chip. The box stays below the chips as Add another stop, so you can add as many countries and cities as you like. Drag a chip, or use its up and down arrows, to change the order; the cross removes it. A line under the chips counts them, for example "2 countries and 1 city". A Road trip asks for the start city and end city first (the end defaults to the start), then optional stops. A Weekend offers "Within 3 hours of" your home city when it is known. In my country only suggests places in your home country, taken from where you fly from or set on this step.
3. When and who: dates or a target month, nights (1 to 60, a Weekend is up to 3) or an end date, adults and children (with ages), who is traveling, budget, pace, flights (find them from your airport, or book your own; hidden for a road trip), interest chips, and under "More": kind of trip, climate, crowds, getting around, between stops, deal-breakers, style. Notes is free text.
4. The footer sums it up, for example "Abroad: Portugal, Spain, 10 nights from May 3, 2 adults". Press Start the trip: the card sends your details to the chat and the assistant creates the trip and asks Adónde to prepare its menu of tours, sights and food. Nothing is booked. A country, or two or more places, gets a route first; the assistant shows it on its own, you do not need to ask.
5. If the card cannot reach the chat, it shows the line to paste instead. Without cards, the assistant asks at most two questions at a time.

1. - / + change a stop's nights. Start and end dates are editable and the other end moves with you.
2. Remove drops a stop (asks to confirm). Swap a stop offers other places.
3. Guide opens a pop-out with that city's guide: highlights, where to stay, best time, questions. It has an add-to-chat button.
4. Start this trip builds the trip from the route.

1. Press Keep on what you like. Kept things are placed on your days for you.
2. Rate any card Love, Like or Skip (tap again to clear). Love is always in the plan, Like is preferred, Skip is never used. Then press Build my days: one chat line goes to your assistant and the days are built around your ratings. Without cards, tell the assistant what you love, like or want to skip.
3. The rules it follows: tours first (at most one paid tour a day), free sights stay first class, one lunch and one dinner at most, days stay sparse (about 3 to 5 things balanced, 2 to 4 loose, up to 6 packed), and arrival and departure days are light.
4. A tour that does not run on any of your days is not offered or is refused: "runs on none of your days".
5. Or say "you choose" and the assistant builds the rest itself.

1. Each day lists its stops with times, photos and links, plus a map.
2. Remove takes an item off a day. Remove marked removes several. Swap asks the assistant to replace it with something else. Drag an item by its handle (works with a finger too) to another spot in the day or onto another day. The day is reflowed: tours keep their published start, everything else packs around them and around your blocked time, inside the day's hours. If something does not fit it turns red ("Overlaps Lunch at 14:00" or "Day is full") and is never moved silently. Save changes turns on when nothing is red and sends one chat line, which your assistant applies. Prefer no dragging? Each item has a Move menu (earlier, later, or another day). Discard changes puts everything back.
3. A move or swap that does not fit is refused and the day stays as it was. Things listed as dropped did not fit the day's hours, a blocked window or the daily limit; add them elsewhere.

1. Ask for stays by area, nightly budget, or in words ("quiet boutique near the old town"). The stays card shows photo, price per night and total, and a map. Ask for "more" for the next page. Tap a card to pop out the hotel in the chat: photos, amenities, the rooms and rates for your dates, and a Book this room button for each.
2. Flights show the price basis (total for the party, round trip or one way), clock times and short connections. Tours show whether they run on your date and the departure times.
3. Every link opens in Adónde (getadonde.com). The assistant never books or takes payment.

1. Start a new chat and name a place.
2. Say "use Adónde".
3. Some assistants show text only; the same steps work in chat.
