Keeping track of various locations has become effortless, similar to using Maps. By enabling the new “screenshot” list feature, Gemini’s capabilities in Maps will automatically detect places mentioned in your screenshots, allowing you to review and save desired locations to a convenient list. Saved places will be displayed on the map, and you can easily share the list with your travel companions. This feature will begin rolling out this week in the U.S. in English on iOS, with an upcoming release on Android.

4. Ask Gemini for travel inspiration

The most challenging part of planning a trip is often getting started. Are you in the mood for a tropical getaway or a visit to a new metropolitan city? Look to Gemini, your personal AI assistant, for help with brainstorming and finding relevant information tailored to your travel needs. You can ask questions like “find me the cheapest flights to Europe and YouTube videos on budget-friendly activities in each of those places.”

Additionally, you can utilize Gemini’s Gems feature – a tool that enables you to create your own personalized AI expert – to set up a customized trip planner Gem. This gives you a travel guide at your fingertips, helping you choose a destination, discover restaurants in a new city, or even suggest what to pack.
