Abstract—One of the most important considerations for tourist in tourism is how to design an optimal trip planning. Selecting the most interesting points of interest and designing a personalized tourist trip is called a tourist trip design problem (TTDP) and, it can be modeled as a orienteering problem. However, most previous researches solve this problem in static network, which leads to unreasonable results. In this paper, to formulate this orienteering problem in a time-dependent network, a mathematical programming model is built with introducing a time-aggregated graph. Then a novel label correcting algorithm (LCA) is presented to solve this problem based on the idea of network planning and dynamic programming. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the effectiveness and feasibility of the algorithm.
