Starting today, Enea is on WhatsApp. No website to open, no app to download, no account to create: the very same app you use to message your friends.
Available at any time.
What you can ask him
Anything you would ask a friend who lives here. Where should I eat tonight? Is the castle open tomorrow? Where can I park without getting a ticket? How long does it take to walk to Montagna Spaccata? Which beach is best for children? What’s on this weekend?
Enea knows events with dates and schedules, attractions with their real opening hours, beaches, parking, the ZTL (limited traffic zone), bus timetables, and places to eat and stay. And he answers at any time: at two in the morning, while you are driving along the Appia, or on Sundays when tourist offices are closed.
Why it’s not your typical chatbot
Here lies the difference, and it’s worth stating clearly.
A generic AI assistant responds with whatever it scraped from the web: outdated information, opening times from a 2019 page, venues that closed two years ago. It sounds confident even when it’s wrong—the quickest way to send a visitor on a pointless uphill walk to a closed door.
Enea accesses the official Gaeta guide database, the very same one we update every day: if an event date shifts, if a monument changes its seasonal hours, or if an evening plan moves due to weather, he knows. He isn’t guessing: he is connected to a genuine, verified database curated by people who actually live here.
He also speaks multiple languages: he recognizes the language you write in and replies in kind.
Why WhatsApp
Because it’s already there. A visitor on holiday isn’t going to download an app just for a three-day stay, nor sign up for an account—but WhatsApp is already right in their hand. Save one number and you have a local city guide in your pocket—just like asking the front desk of a hotel, except it never closes and there’s never a queue.
And we’re not stopping here
The WhatsApp channel is only the latest milestone, with more to come. Over recent months, ScopriGaeta has grown at a remarkable pace: the online assistant, event listings with maps and schedules, monument hours, parking and ZTL regulations, itineraries, beach guides, bus timetables, the business partner area, social media updates, and now automated visual graphics for local tourism operators.
A year ago, half of these features didn’t exist. ScopriGaeta is not just a website: it is an evolving platform, and we add something new to it every month.
Get on board
If you’re planning a trip to Gaeta, or if you live here and want to know what’s happening tonight: message Enea on WhatsApp. It is free, requires no sign-up, and the first answer arrives in seconds.
If you run a local business—a restaurant, a B&B, a beach establishment, or a service for visitors—and want to be part of this platform as it grows, the door is open here.
Prefer to try it on the website first? Enea is also here. Ask him a tough question: it’s the best way to see the difference.
