Start from oneWritten down by the people who took the trip
Students on semester abroad publish the trips they actually took — the route, what it cost them, the hostel that was worth it. Copy one onto your dates and go.
Free, and nothing books here — every step hands you to the partner holding the price.
Every step hands off to
Within reach
Your home base is the centre of a graph. Everything inside a few hours of it is a weekend, and other students have already written down what they did there. Keep scrolling — on this map, the distance from the centre is the travel time.
Above: eight cities at their true positions, and the rings Pavilia redraws them onto — so that distance from Florence is travel time. Bologna ends up closer than Siena, because a fast train beats a short map.
The two-hour band
A Friday seminar ends at 16:00. Anything inside the inner ring is a weekend; anything outside it is a holiday you don’t have time for. Pavilia only ever shows you the ring you can actually reach — and for each city, what the students who went actually did.
Three of them, up close.
How it works
Getting there, where you’ll stay, food, what you’ll do. Your home base and semester dates are already on file, so every search opens prefilled.
Freeze it as it actually happened. Real costs, real timings, the honest note about the 6am bus.
One tap rebases your whole weekend onto their dates, with your name on it. That’s the loop, and it’s the entire point.
What one looks like
Florence to the Cinque Terre on a regional train — the kind of weekend students write down here, drawn at the scale you’d actually travel it.


The line follows the track as it actually runs — inland through Empoli to Pisa, then north along the coast to La Spezia, changing there for the last stop. About 2h 45m door to door.
Then it’s just a trip
Your dates, your party size, your home base — carried across to the partner holding the price. Pavilia adds no fee to partner bookings.
A copied weekend
Every link opens the partner’s own page with your details already in it. The price you pay is the partner’s price.
Pavilia uses analytics — including recordings of how screens are used, with what you type masked — to improve the app.
