@n8 Agreed! Google Trips was actually useful. Foursquare used to be useful too (before they pivoted, which made that service into a zombie).

@n8 The best FOSS solutions for location and trip planning are:
- Wikivoyage, the Wikipedia of travel destinations: https://en.m.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Main_Page
- Wikipedia geo browsing, supported in its native app (also available on F-Droid) or on the website @ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Nearby
- Maps (fork of Maps.me on F-Droid) https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.github.axet.maps/
Many pieces are there; someone should mash them up better. The big things lacking are ratings, popularity, and visit time, but hours & descriptions exist.
