Setting place details

Every place in your Trovvana trip has detail fields that help you plan thoroughly. From tracking costs to noting that a restaurant requires a reservation, place details turn a simple map pin into a complete planning tool. Fill in as much or as little as you need.

Editable place fields

Here is every field you can set for a place:

Name

The display name for the place. This appears on the map marker label, in the sidebar list, and in exported documents. Use the official name, a nickname, or a description like “lunch spot near the Colosseum.”

Day

Assign the place to a specific day of your trip. Places assigned to a day appear in the daily itinerary in the sidebar and can be filtered on the map using the day selector. Unassigned places still appear on the map but are not included in daily route lines.

Visit order

Within a day, visit order determines the sequence you plan to go to each place. Trovvana uses this order to draw route lines showing your planned path. Reorder places by changing the number or dragging them in the sidebar.

Website URL

A link to the place’s official website, booking page, or any relevant external page. This is handy for quick access when you need to check hours, make a reservation, or buy tickets.

Duration (hours)

How long you expect to spend at the place. Setting duration helps you gauge whether your daily itinerary is realistic. If you have five hours of activities planned and only six hours of daylight, you will know to trim something before you leave home.

Opening hours

The times when the place is open. Record these so you can plan your visit order around them. There is nothing worse than arriving at a museum only to find it closed on Tuesdays.

Price

The cost of visiting the place, with both an amount and a currency field. Track admission fees, meal budgets, transport costs, or any other expense. Trovvana uses price data to calculate per-category cost breakdowns and total trip cost estimates in the sidebar.

Booking status

Track whether you have booked or reserved this place. The available statuses are:

None — no booking needed or not yet considered.
Pending — you plan to book but have not done so yet.
Confirmed — booked and confirmed.
Cancelled — previously booked but now cancelled.

This is particularly useful for restaurants that require reservations, tours with limited availability, or accommodation that you are still comparing.

Notes

A free-text field for anything else you want to remember about the place. Tips from friends, dietary notes for a restaurant, parking instructions, or reminders about what to pack. Notes are private to your trip and are included in PDF exports.

Where place details appear

The detail fields you fill in are not just stored in a form — they show up across Trovvana to keep information at your fingertips:

Sidebar — the places list shows the name, category color, day, visit order, and booking status for each place. You can scan your daily itinerary at a glance.
Floating card — when you click a map marker, a floating card appears showing the place name, category, price, duration, and a preview of your notes. This lets you check details without leaving the map view.
PDF export — when you export your trip as a PDF, all details are included in a printable format organized by day.

Tips for managing place details

Fill in costs early. Even rough estimates help. Trovvana’s cost breakdown chart gives you a running total by category, so you can see whether your trip is within budget as you plan.
Use booking status as a to-do list. Set places to Pending as a reminder to book them, then update to Confirmed once done. Before your trip, review the sidebar for any places still showing a Pending status badge to make sure nothing slips through.
Keep notes concise. A few bullet points per place is usually enough. You can always link to a longer resource in the website URL field.
