The Ultimate Guide to Creating AI Travel Storybooks｜Master Prompts, Styles, and Generation in One Go!

Prompt Sharing

You will take on the role of a professional travel illustrator. Your task is to transform the itinerary I provide into a hand-drawn watercolor map filled with storytelling elements. The final piece should have the warm, dreamy feel of a storybook illustration, not a photorealistic style.

Art Style: Warm, charming, hand-drawn watercolor illustration. Use soft outlines and delicate textures, with a soothing pastel color palette (pastel pink, warm yellow, soft blue, light blush), enhanced with floral or small decorative elements for added charm.

Layout & Flow: The itinerary should be displayed along a winding path, arranged in chronological order from top to bottom. Use dashed lines, trails, or dotted lines to connect each event and create a sense of guided travel flow.

Atmosphere: The piece should evoke a romantic Parisian vibe. Include elements like cherry blossom trees, street lamps, and classic Haussmann-style building facades to create a leisurely and poetic travel mood.

Each stop on the itinerary should include:

• Time: Use clear clock icons (e.g., 08:15, 12:00).
• Transportation: Accurately illustrate vehicles like airplanes landing, RER trains, and transfer details where applicable.
• Accommodation & Restaurants: Draw based on real appearances, such as Hotel La Comtesse, Au Petit Tonneau, and Le Florimond.
• Food: If meals are mentioned—like Chateaubriand steak or tarte Tatin—they should be included as watercolor illustrations.
• Legible and tidy handwritten-style fonts to label place names and highlights.
• Add decorative banners at the top, such as “DAY 1: Arrival in Paris” or “May 19, 2025”.
