If you were any less lazy, Tripoetic wouldn’t have had to exist. But you are lazy, and it, thankfully, does. On the face of it, all the website does is designs for you an itinerary based on some preliminary informa­tion (basic contact details, travel interests, accommoda­tion preferences, etc.) But, you know, this itinerary is far more personalised, as if your usual travel-agent is sitting right in front of you. On a tight budget? You got it! Your daughter enjoys boat-rides more than amuse­ment parks? You got it. But your son enjoys amusement parks more than boat rides? Well… you got it. You want cheese, you get cheese. There are no ‘well-researched and pre-created’ templates that are shoved down your throats; here everything’s built for you from scratch. And people are loving it—just read the testimonies and see for yourself.

Started by Gunjan Indrayan and Pranjali Indrayan, a couple with a mutual love for travel, the idea is to emphasise upon the importance (and the eventual benefits) of planning your trip. The website is also equipped with a ‘must-see’ list, a series of ‘suggested trips’ and even a ‘unique experiences’ section for the more adventurous. Also, there’s a blog with some really exciting personalised travelogues, in case you wish to emulate any of those experiences. Whatever the case, just take your pick and be prepared to experience a trip-of-a-lifetime just as you had dreamt it, if not better.
