The paper demonstrates that fine‑tuning large language models (LLMs) on local tourist trajectory data can predict visitor movements under varying conditions. Using 566 trajectories from Wakayama Castle Park, Japan, the authors fine‑tuned Llama‑3.1‑8B, achieving 49.1% accuracy for next point‑of‑interest predictions and maintaining strong performance even on undersampled scenarios such as rainy days. This shows that LLMs can serve as high‑fidelity, context‑aware behavior models for tourist prediction and enable counterfactual analysis of mobility interventions.

arXiv:2606. 01046v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The development of Large Language Models (LLMs) has significantly improved travel planning applications, yet evaluating such models is limited by existing benchmarks' limitations: 1) overemphasis on constraint compliance, neglecting multi-dimensional qualities like spatio-temporal cost; 2) datasets lacking real-world authenticity and coverage in key areas (e.
Behavior2Trip introduces a new task—Behavior‑Aware Travel Planning—where user preferences are inferred directly from past behavior trajectories rather than explicit instructions. The benchmark contains 11,400 Chinese travel‑planning instances, each with an average of 39.8 past behaviors across 14 attributes and 5 preference dimensions. A reinforcement‑learning agent, B2T‑Agent, leveraging behavior trajectories, external retrieval tools, and internal memory, outperforms strong baselines such as GPT‑4.1 on this challenging dataset.
The paper evaluates how Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) can improve Large Language Model (LLM) predictions of travel mode choice. Four retrieval strategies—basic RAG, balanced retrieval, cross‑encoder re‑ranking, and a combination of balanced retrieval with cross‑encoder—are tested on three LLMs (GPT‑4o, o4‑mini, o3) using 2023 Puget Sound travel survey data. Results show that RAG boosts accuracy across models, with GPT‑4o plus balanced retrieval and cross‑encoder achieving 80.8% accuracy, surpassing traditional statistical and machine learning baselines and demonstrating strong zero‑shot transfer.
CityReal is a modular framework that uses large language model agents to simulate human-aligned urban behavior. It models agents as intention-driven decision makers who pursue coherent mobility and activity plans, learning habits and preferences over time. By training textual adapters to align agent decisions with observed population statistics, CityReal improves realism at both micro and macro levels and can scale to tens of thousands of agents for analyzing crowd density, place popularity, mobility flows, and well‑being under various urban scenarios.

Behavior2Trip introduces a new task—Behavior‑Aware Travel Planning—where user preferences are inferred from past behavior trajectories rather than explicit instructions. The benchmark contains 11,400 instances from a major Chinese travel platform, each with nearly 40 recorded behaviors across 14 attributes and 5 preference dimensions. A reinforcement‑learning agent, B2T‑Agent, leverages these trajectories, external retrieval tools, and internal memory, outperforming GPT‑4.1 and other baselines on the dataset.
