Planning a trip from scratch takes time. LepRip lets you use a travel guide’s sample route as the starting point for your own itinerary. Here is how it works, using a two-day Tokyo trip as an example.
1. Choose a route in the travel guides
Open a model itinerary that includes the places you want to visit. The Tokyo two-day guide covers Asakusa, Tokyo Skytree and Ueno on day one, followed by Meiji Jingu, Harajuku, Shibuya and Shinjuku on day two.
2. Select “Build an itinerary from this route”
The button takes you to a new itinerary editor with suggested stops and approximate times already included. You are creating your own plan, not changing somebody else’s shared itinerary.
3. Choose your starting date
The dates may initially be blank. Once you choose the trip’s first day, the two-day example places its eight suggested stops across day one (four stops) and day two (four stops). Adjust each time to fit your hotel, reservations and actual journey.
The timetable is a planning example, not a guarantee of opening hours, travel times or ticket availability.
4. Add transport between stops
The first stop does not need a transport method. For later stops, the method describes how to arrive from the previous stop and appears between the itinerary cards. For example, set “train” on the Tokyo Skytree stop if that is how you are travelling there from Asakusa. Check routes and transfers with a current map or transport service.
5. Make the itinerary yours
Remove places that do not interest you, add restaurants or cafés, and leave time for breaks. A suggested route is a starting point, not a checklist you must finish.
6. Review and share
Check the dates, locations, maps and transport between stops on your finished itinerary. Share the link with your travel companions using LINE or another supported method. Avoid including private addresses, booking credentials or other sensitive details in a shareable itinerary.
Frequently asked questions
Can I change the dates and stops?
Yes. Edit the itinerary to suit your own schedule, and review the dates again after making changes.
Are travel guides and sample itineraries the same?
No. A guide explains a suggested route, while a sample itinerary shows an example of a completed plan. The “create” and “view sample” buttons serve different purposes.
Can I start without a fixed destination?
Yes. Browse suggested routes, choose the places you like, and decide the details as you go.
