Often times we start planning a day trip with one Point of Interest (POI) in mind. For instance, we are in New York City and want to visit the Empire state building. But we don't know what are the nearby POI to go that can fill in the day. Vacation planner should be able to fill the plan for the rest of the day for users.

Use Google Maps API place autocomplete service would be a good starting point. It predicts places with ambiguous user inputs.

Looks good! Do you plan to reuse the current nearby search api or add a new one?

As mentioned in the comment, we would use the place autocomplete API.
