I want to start my sightseeing earlier/later than the default time. How do I change this?

Click on the Settings icon on the navigation bar, choose “plan settings” then select the time you prefer to start your day at. (Note that your sightseeing will start at least a half-hour after the time you select in order to give you time to reach the day's first activity.)

How do I start some days at a different time?

Go to the Calendar view. If your days usually start at 10 a.m. and you want to begin a day at 9:30 a.m., click on the 9-9:30 a.m. time block, choose ?“Create custom event”, and give the activity block a name. Your sightseeing for that day will now start at 9:30 a.m., immediately following the time you blocked on the calendar.

If you want to see a specific attraction earlier than your sightseeing schedule typically begins, click the time block on the calendar, select “Explore things to do”, and search for the attraction by name. Add it to the calendar and then adjust the duration of your visit if you'd like.

How does Klarna Trips make money?

To keep our suggestions unbiased, we do not accept payment for placing destinations or attractions on trips. Our engine selects the places it thinks best match your preferences. You might see commercial activities, such as 'Scuba & Snorkeling' if you are looking for popular outdoor activities in Australia, but we do not favor one provider over another. You might also see links to commercial tours in your itinerary, but these are not suggested as scheduled activities.

Our goal is to provide an exceptional trip-planning experience; providing unbiased recommendations is a crucial part of that.
