Copacabana, Rio de JaneiroBefore you go
Plan less than you think
Tell Tavvi where your feet are itching to go. It sorts the flights, the beds and the boring bits, so the trip keeps room for everything you can't plan.
The AI travel companion app · Made in the UK
Look up.
Tavvi's got the rest.
Walk until you're a little lost. Eat where the plastic stools are. Say yes to the stranger with the cold beer. Tavvi plans the trip, tells you what you're walking past, and stays quiet the rest of the time.
Tavvi · Colosseum, Rome
That's the Colosseum. Finished in AD 80, it held around 50,000 people for the games. Hungry? Monti is ten minutes on foot, and the carbonara there is worth the detour.

One morning in Rome. Phone away.

Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro
Bún Chả Hương Liên, HanoiWhile you're there
Eat where the locals queue
The place with no English menu. The bar the waiter told you about. Tavvi knows where to go and how to order, tells you the story of the street, then goes quiet while you eat.
BrasíliaTogether
The best meals are the ones you share
Scotland and Brazil fans at one long table, the night of the match. Strangers at seven, friends by dessert, and a night you'll still be talking about in ten years.

Travelling alone?
Not for long.
Somewhere in your new town is someone who also fancies a drink. Who also wants to see the show but not on their own. Who hasn't spoken to anyone since breakfast either. Tavvi finds them: verified travellers, nearby, up for the same thing tonight.
Planners plan. Maps map. Tavvi introduces you.

Bia hơi, HanoiWhy I made Tavvi
“The whole point of travel is to look up. To smell the food, hear the language, notice the people.”
I travel alone a lot for work. In Rome, Paris, São Paulo and Hanoi I kept walking past history with my head in my phone, and eating dinner on my own. Tavvi is the companion I wanted beside me.
