A simple, reusable Gantt template for planning trips – personal or business. Maps out travel legs, accommodation, and daily activities as a timeline so you can see how everything fits at a glance. Shares cleanly in Notion or any Markdown-friendly tool.

How to create a Trip Plan Gantt Chart

To create a trip plan gantt chart, follow these steps:

01.
Define your sections
Break the trip into logical phases: travel days, destinations, and multi-day stays.
02.
Set your date format and axis
Use dateFormat YYYY-MM-DD and axisFormat %b %d for readable date labels.
03.
Add tasks with durations
Each task takes a start date and either an end date or a duration. Use after [taskId] to chain sequential legs.
04.
Use AI to speed up the first draft
Describe your itinerary in plain language and have AI generate the Mermaid syntax. Adjust dates and labels from there.
05.
Embed in Notion or export as SVG
Mermaid renders as SVG, so it scales cleanly at any zoom level — useful for large itineraries or shared trip docs.
