Journey BuilderPlan a road trip that actually works.
Tell Journey Builder where you're starting and where you're going. It works out the route, finds the stops worth making and lays out every day, so your time goes on choosing, not calculating.
Saves you time
It does the planning you'd rather not
The research, the arithmetic and the rearranging are done for you. What's left is the fun part: deciding what you want.
The route, worked out
Name your start and end. The distance and drive time for every leg are calculated for you.
Lists already filled
Every stop comes with things to do, places to eat and places to stay, found before you ask.
Days laid out for you
Your picks, meals, drives and check-ins are arranged into each day in one step.
Nights divided up
One button spreads your nights across your stops, weighing what each one is worth.
Bookings read for you
Upload or forward a hotel or rental confirmation and the details fill themselves in.
Changes handled
Add a stop and the route updates. Re-plan a day and whatever you locked stays put.
Routes & roads
Your route, on the roads you choose
Take the fastest way, or fewer highways. On any leg you can drag the route onto the exact road you want, and the drive times, map and days update to match.
- Every leg routed, with distance and drive time
- Drive, fly, take the train or a ferry, leg by leg
Stops
Stops worth the detour, added your way
Journey Builder finds the towns along your route and tells you how far off the road each one is. Add them with a tap, search, type a list, pick towns on a map, or ask the AI.
- Top picks with the detour time for each
- Nights per stop, or let it divide them up for you
Things to do, food & lodging
Choose what you'll actually do
Every stop comes with things to do, places to eat and places to stay. Filter by time of day, how long it takes, the season, price, or indoors and out. Keep your hotel close to what you're doing.
- Family friendly, pet-friendly, vegetarian, gluten-free and more
- Add the places you already know
AI chat
Ask, like you'd ask a friend who knows the area
Chat about things to do, where to eat and where to stay at every stop, or about the route itself. Add anything it suggests straight to your trip.
- A chat for each stop, and one for the whole route
- Quick prompts like "Great with kids" and "Cheap eats"
＋ Point Lobos State Natural Reserve ＋ Monterey Bay Coastal Recreation Trail
Day planning
Days that fit together
Auto-schedule arranges your picks around drives, meals, check-ins and the plans you've already booked. What doesn't fit is set aside, never deleted.
- Opening hours respected where they're known
- Warnings when you can't get somewhere in time, with a one-tap fix
Bookings & budget
Everything for the trip, in the trip
Hotel confirmations, flights, rental cars and costs sit with the plan they belong to. See what the trip will cost, down to the fuel for your own car.
- Confirmations read for you
- A checklist for picking up and returning the rental
However you travel
Built for real road trips
Fly in, drive out
Add flights, trains and ferries to any leg, and a rental car where you land.
RV and camper trips
Switch to an RV and the places to stay become campgrounds.
