Is TripFlow really free to try?

Yes. Every itinerary starts with a free 2-day preview in both route styles — no account needed. Unlock the full trip for $2.75 one-time, or buy an Insider Pass for a month ($5.49) or a year ($31.90) of unlimited planning. There is no subscription — nothing auto-renews, and you can extend any time you like. All prices include 10% Japanese consumption tax.

Can I get a non-touristy version of my itinerary?

Yes — every trip generates two routes: the Classic Route (the icons) and the Local's Route (backstreets, neighborhoods, where locals actually eat). Preview both free, unlock the one you prefer.

How is this different from ChatGPT or Google?

TripFlow is Japan-only and deeply specialized. It knows local train routes, real restaurant names, hotel price ranges, and seasonal events. ChatGPT gives generic advice — TripFlow gives you a specific, actionable day-by-day plan you can actually follow.

White sand and Japan's clearest water

The first two days are free to preview, and you can regenerate as many versions as you like before deciding anything.

When to go, and what to know

Practical Ishigaki advice before you lock in dates.

Best: March–May, October–November; typhoon risk August–September

Japan's peak seasons — cherry blossom, Golden Week, autumn foliage and New Year — sell out months ahead in Ishigaki. Travelling just outside those windows usually means lower prices and quieter sights.

✓Ishigaki is the gateway to the Yaeyama Islands — Kabira Bay is iconic (boat glass tours, no swimming).
✓Rent a car to explore the island's beaches and mountains — public transport is limited.
✓Try Yaeyama soba (different from Okinawan soba) and fresh Ishigaki beef.
