Free Travel Itinerary Template — Six Formats
Shobhit Shrivastava · Founder
This is one travel itinerary template, published in six formats: Excel, Google Sheets, Word, Google Docs, printable PDF and Notion. Each is a complete trip planner, not a decorated grid — day-by-day pages, a bookings section with space for confirmation numbers and PNRs, a budget that adds itself up (and splits costs across the group), a categorised packing list, and the pre-trip checklist people wish they had used.
Pick your format
Or skip the blank page entirely
Answer eight quick questions and the AI writes the whole plan for your destination — day-by-day activities with times and costs, budget, food guide — then exports it to any format above. Free, no signup. Here’s a real 7-day Japan example.
Which format should you use?
| Format | Best for | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Google Sheets | Group trips, live budget tracking | Everyone edits one copy; budget splits itself by who paid |
| Excel | Detailed planners, offline work | Six-tab working planner with live formulas and print setup |
| Word | Printed, document-style plans | One page per day, real checkboxes, one-click restyling |
| Google Docs | Collaborative written plans | Comments for the group debate; converts losslessly |
| PDF (printable) | Paper backup in the daypack | Ruled day pages that print clean on A4 or Letter |
| Notion | Notion-native planners | Databases for days, bookings, budget — regroup in one click |
Planning a specific kind of trip?
The same planner, re-specced for the trip you are actually taking — pre-labelled days, a packing list that fits the occasion, and the group cost split where it matters: Bachelorette itinerary template · Disney trip itinerary template · Girls trip itinerary template.
What every template includes
- Day-by-day planner — morning, afternoon and evening for each day
- Bookings — flight confirmation & PNR, seat, hotels, car rental, emergency contacts
- Budget — planned amounts by category, a spending log, and (in the spreadsheets) live totals with a who-paid group split
- Packing list — 33 items across documents, clothing, toiletries, electronics, money and extras
- Pre-trip checklist — the 12 things people forget, from passport validity to telling the bank
Want to see the structure in use? Every format page links a filled example — a real 7-day Japan trip with all sections populated.
How to use them
- Google Sheets & Docs: open the template, then File › Make a copy — it lands in your Drive, ready to edit and share.
- Notion: click Duplicate in the top-right corner to copy it into your workspace.
- Excel, Word & PDF: just download and open — no account needed.
Download whichever format fits how you plan. No email address, no locked "pro" version, no watermark across your plans. And if you would rather not fill in a template at all — our AI writes the whole itinerary for your destination, free, and exports it to every one of these formats.
These planners get the same maintenance as the generator behind them: when a real trip exposes a gap — a missing pre-trip step, a booking field nobody had — the fix ships to every format. The screenshots on this page are the actual files, not mockups.
Frequently asked questions
Which format should I pick?
Spreadsheets (Excel / Google Sheets) if you care about budget tracking — the totals and group cost split calculate themselves. Documents (Word / Google Docs) if the plan should read like pages. The PDF if you want paper in the daypack. Notion if your life already lives there.
Are these really free?
Yes — direct downloads, no email gate, no signup. They are the same export engines our itinerary generator uses, packaged as blank planners.
What makes these different from other free templates?
Two things. The spreadsheets are working planners — live budget totals, group cost splitting, tickable checkboxes, print setup done — not static grids. And every template has a "filled" twin: the AI at monkeyeatingmango.com generates a real itinerary for your destination in the same structure, free.
Can I use them for a business trip?
Yes — the bookings section (flight PNR, seat, hotel confirmations, car rental) is the core of a business itinerary. Delete the leisure sections you do not need; the example file shows the structure filled in.
Does Google have a travel itinerary template?
Not a full one — the Google Sheets gallery has a bare one-tab travel planner and the Google Docs gallery has none; neither covers bookings, budget or packing. The Google Sheets and Google Docs versions here fill that gap: one click makes a copy straight into your Drive.
