The Smart Family Adventure Planner

Tell Pip about your crew and Pip will build a day that actually fits — the right activities, in the right order, at the right times, with room to breathe (and snack) in between.

Plan Your Visit = hours, directions and tips. The Adventure Planner (this page) = a personal timed itinerary built around your family.

Hi! I’m Pip. Answer five quick questions and I’ll plan your perfect Harbor House adventure!

The Adventure Planner needs JavaScript to build your personal route. No problem — you can still explore every world on the Museum Map or check hours and prices on Plan Your Visit.

Who’s coming? Pick every age in your crew

Choose one or more — Pip plans for the whole crew, littlest to biggest.

🤔 How Pip picks

Pip plans activity by activity — 24 of them across the six worlds — with simple, honest rules. No randomness, no ads:

Ages must fit: an activity only makes your plan if its age range overlaps an age group you picked. A perfect age fit earns +2, a partial one +1.
Interests: an activity whose tags match something your crew loves earns +3 per matched tag (up to +6).
Energy & senses: calm days favour gentle, quiet activities; high-energy, buzz-loving days favour the lively ones. Loud activities score down on a calm, quiet plan.
Variety: once your plan is rolling, another activity from a world already in it scores 1 point less, so your day spreads across Harbor House.
Old favourites: a world whose badge you’ve already earned scores 1 point less — and Pip says so, because favourites are worth revisiting.
The order is the intelligence: a calm-early activity leads the day while the museum is quiet; big-energy activities go early and wind-down ones last; showtimes are timed to their real start beats when the wait is short.
Time is real: Pip works to your arrival time and budget, adds walking time between worlds, and plans lunch or a snack when your day needs one. If a plan would run long, Pip trims it — and the times on your timeline are the honest result.
