The 40% visually impaired people, or Hikikomori, have low self-efficacy on travel because their guide helpers in traveling lead always them to the destination safely. Then, it is few for the Hikikomori visually impaired to have opportunity of self-determination on travel. We have developed the AHP-GIS-based travel assist system for the visually impaired of especially the 40% who are almost staying home. To promote their outgoings, they should decide, or advise equally the guide helper, when determining the travel route. The system developed tends to assist the self-determination of users. In this report, we presented that the system was added new function to presume landmark-contained routes, and, as such, outputted the better route of satisfying user's preferences at least the 12 sighted university students. We tested the validity of this method in the Bandai district of Niigata city, and the addition of new function increased significantly the AHP score.
