I've been using Gemini 3.7 for my personal trip planning app. Across multiple benchmarks, it ranks higher on everything I tried:
- Real world knowledge (when a thing opens and closes, the geographic region, historical facts). It's also the best at taking a cluster of places and working out a visiting order.
- Photo ranking (which photo should be the hero). Gemini can tell whether a photo is of the thing or of the view from it.
- Document parsing (extracting the relevant trip info from PDFs).
If you use LLMs for anything other than coding, I definitely recommend not discounting Gemini like I did just because other models are more popular.
