Travel knowledge from people you trust.
Firsthand travel experience, organized into Brains you can explore, share and talk to.
Someone knows what you need!
Send your questions to someone who's been there. That's less time figuring your next plan out.
The best plans start with people!
"Stay west of the Sumida river, north of Kanda. Central for everything, without losing 40 minutes on the metro each morning. Shibuya is popular but pricier and far from other places in the city."
"Here's the contact for our driver in Agra, he was great, super friendly, even took us to a secret lookout to photograph the Taj Mahal without crowds."
"Go eat at Sidrería El Tigre, it's super local and the tapas come free with your drinks. I practically lived there during my master's. And the napkins on the floor are cultural: more napkins, better bar."
"Tell your guide on day one that you want to see a leopard. It's the hardest sighting, and if you ask at the end they won't have time left to look."
"Don't make our mistake: between Page and the Grand Canyon there's about 200km with no gas stations. Fill up in Page even if you're at half a tank..."
"People will stare, in stations, on trains, everywhere. It feels hostile at first and it isn't, you're just interesting. Same reason a stranger asks for a photo, then adds you on Facebook and actually messages you."
"Ship your suitcase between hotels with takkyubin, it's about ¥2000 and arrives the next day. Dragging it through the metro is a nightmare. And if you insist, don't bring a roller, a camping backpack is far better. You'll thank me."
"Everyone runs Retiro. The Manzanares river path is better. Start at Palacio Real, head down to the river and pick up the path at Puente de Toledo. From there go either direction and you have an easy 10K."
"Trains are the easiest and cheapest way to get around China. First class, business and even second class are good. A kid on your lap rides free. If you want them in their own seat, you buy a ticket. We always book 2 seats for us."

A real Brain, for example

Oh yeah, Shibuya on your second night, perfect timing 🙌
Go to Tsukishima Monja Kuuya Shibuya, short walk from the crossing. Okonomiyaki, cooked right in front of you at the table 🔥
I've been twice, trust me on this one. There's usually a line but it moves fast, and they take card 💳
If it's packed, keep walking down the same street, there are more places, but honestly, I would wait. It's worth it.
