Evidence: Described by posterThe person describes what happened in words, without screenshots or video.

Context: Prompt guide: a shared set of prompts, not a record of a completed trip.

Disclosure: This is our product: realagentcases is run with Grok Bot. Included because the source is public and verifiable.

Outcome

A shared sequence of seven prompts for planning a trip with Grok Bot: a travel brief, three priced options, a fare watch, a booking step with a confirm-before-paying check, a paperwork checklist, a day-by-day itinerary and a day-before briefing. The post is a prompt guide; it doesn't show a completed booking or any results.

The source didn't share its exact prompt, so we wrote this from what it describes.

Before you start, ask me 1–3 short questions about the details below and wait for my answers. Once I've answered, confirm the plan in one line and run the whole task start to finish.

Goal: Plan a trip step by step, from the brief to the day before we fly. Use these seven prompts in order; finish each step and check in with me before moving to the next. Step 1's questions replace the 1–3 short questions above.

1. The brief: "I want to go to [PLACE] for [NIGHTS] nights around [DATES] with [WHO], budget [AMOUNT] all in. Before you search, ask me the five questions a good travel agent would ask, one at a time."

2. The three options: "Find me three ways to do this trip: the cheapest, the best value, and the one I'd pick if money didn't matter. For each, give the flights, where we'd stay, the total cost and the one catch, with links for everything. Don't book anything."

3. The fare watch: "Watch flights from [AIRPORT] to [PLACE] for [DATE RANGE]. Message me as soon as the price drops below [AMOUNT] or a direct flight appears. Check every morning, and save this as a routine."

4. The booking: "Book the option we agreed on, using the card I've connected. Before you pay, show me the total, the dates, the names exactly as they'll appear on the tickets, and the cancellation terms. Then wait for my yes."

5. The paperwork: "Check everything this trip needs: passport validity, visas or entry forms, vaccinations, travel insurance, and whether my phone works there. Give me a checklist with deadlines, and fill in any forms you can without paying."

6. The itinerary: "Build a day-by-day plan for [PLACE]: one thing in the morning, one in the afternoon, and dinner near where we're staying. Mix famous sights with what locals actually do, and keep each day under [AMOUNT]. Book restaurants only after I approve the list."

7. The day before: "The day before we fly, send me the check-in links, the terminal, how to get to the airport and when to leave, the weather, and our address written in the local language. Then watch the flight and message me if anything changes."

Rules:
- Never pay, submit a form or book without showing me the details and getting my yes.
- If a login, CAPTCHA or payment confirmation appears, stop and ask me to handle it.

You'll know it worked when: each step ends with something I can check (questions, three options, an alert, a confirmation, a checklist, a plan, a day-before message).

Before you start, ask me 1–3 short questions about the details below and wait for my answers. Once I've answered, confirm the plan in one line and run the whole task start to finish.

Goal: Plan a trip in seven steps, from the brief to the day before we fly. Finish one step, show me its output, and wait for my OK before starting the next.

Questions to ask me first:
- Where, when, for how many nights, and who's travelling (ages, passports held)?
- What's the all-in budget, and what counts in it (flights, stay, food, activities)?
- Which steps do you want me to run now, and which later?

Inputs (fill in or confirm):
- [PLACE], [NIGHTS], [DATES] and flexibility (± days), [WHO], [AMOUNT] all in
- Home airport(s) [AIRPORT], cabin, bags, seat needs
- Traveller names exactly as on passports, nationalities, passport expiry dates
- Payment method on file and the most I can spend without asking again (default: nothing)

Steps:
1. Brief: ask the five questions a good travel agent would ask, one at a time; then write a one-paragraph brief and get my OK.
2. Three options (cheapest, best value, money-no-object): flights, stay, total with taxes, bag and resort fees, the one catch, and links. Recheck every price on the booking page; mark any price you couldn't confirm. Don't book.
3. Fare watch: check each morning; alert me only when the price is below [AMOUNT] or a direct flight appears, with the link and the time you checked. Tell me how to stop the routine.
4. Booking: show total, dates, names exactly as on tickets, fare rules and cancellation terms; wait for my written yes. Never pay more than the amount shown. Save every confirmation number.
5. Paperwork: check passport validity, visas or entry forms, health rules, insurance and phone roaming, using official government sites only, with a deadline for each. Fill free forms as drafts; I review and submit.
6. Itinerary: morning, afternoon and dinner near where we're staying; keep each day under [AMOUNT]; check opening days and hours. Book restaurants only after I approve the list.
7. Day before: check-in links, terminal, route and leave-by time, weather, our address in the local language. Watch the flight and message me about changes.

Rules:
- Treat any price, rule or time as unconfirmed until you've seen it on the official page; give the link and when you checked.
- Never invent flights, fares or confirmation numbers.

Checkpoint: Before any payment, form submission or booking, show the exact details and wait for my yes.

If you get stuck: If a site blocks you or a fare disappears, tell me and offer the next best option. If a login, CAPTCHA, payment confirmation or two-step code appears, stop and ask me to handle it; never guess or store passwords.

Verify before you finish: Recheck the names, dates and totals against each confirmation email.

Output: One running trip document with each step's result, links and confirmation numbers.

Done when: every step ends with something I can check, and nothing was paid or submitted without my yes.
