Your own words outrank our rules
Write “coastal, slow mornings, no motorways” and the route follows your words ahead of our pacing defaults.
Road trip planner features
Roadanza turns six answers into a day-by-day road trip: real stops with photos, driving times from actual routing, somewhere to sleep each night, and a budget that starts from your own car. Here is what that includes, feature by feature, with the limits stated where there are limits.
Plan a tripNo account, no card. The whole plan is readable for free.
Telling it where you want to go
Six questions, about forty seconds. You can answer them loosely and still get a route that reads like someone thought about it.
Three routes, with pictures
Before anything is built, you pick from two or three real routes for the same trip, each with its own character.
Draw where you want to go
No destination yet? Circle a region on the map with your finger, and the trip is planned inside that ring.
Describe a place you can't name
Describe a place you can't name, like “the town where they filmed Game of Thrones”, and pick from real matches.
Stops you insist on become real places
Name a place you want on the way and it is looked up for real, then fitted into that day's drive.
Dates, or just a number of days
Give real dates and each day carries its forecast. Give a number of days and no weather is invented.
The days themselves
Each day is a card list you can read in ten seconds: what you drive, where you stop, what it costs, where you sleep.
Cards, not a chat window
Each day is a strip of cards: drive, stop, meal, overnight. Every place has its time and a one-line reason.
Driving times from real routing
Distances and times come from routing on real roads, and a day too long to drive says so.
The forecast moves the plan
On real dates, the walk goes on the dry day and the museum on the wet one. Each day shows its own forecast.
A practical line for every stop
Every stop gets a practical line, like timed tickets or where to park, and each day adds heads-ups for the driver.
Somewhere to sleep, every night
Every night names a town and suggests places to stay. We are not a booking site and take no commission.
A budget built from your car
Fuel comes from your car's own consumption, not an average. Food, stays, tolls and vignettes are added on top.
Whatever you are driving
Petrol, diesel, hybrid, electric or a motorhome. The vehicle changes the stops, the overnights and the money, not just a label.
Charging stops in the day, not a footnote
Enter your real range and charging stops appear inside the drive, sized to it. A charge can share a lunch stop.
Campgrounds for a motorhome
Pick RV and your nights become real campgrounds instead of hotels, with motorhome fuel figures in the budget.
We do not route around vehicle height, length or weight. Check bridge clearances, tunnels and mountain passes yourself.
Your units, your numbers
Litres per 100 km or miles per gallon, kilometres or miles: the trip uses the units you drive with.
Ferries named before you commit
A leg that needs a boat says so on the card, with a rough cost. One switch rebuilds the route to stay on roads.
Changing your mind
A plan you cannot argue with is a brochure. Every part of the trip is editable, and the edits are cheap.
Rewrite a day in a sentence
Type “too much driving, and I want a swim” and that one day is rebuilt. The rest of the trip stays as it was.
Don't like a stop? Three others
Tap Change on any stop for three real alternatives nearby, never one that is already in the trip.
Drag, add, remove
Drag cards to reorder a day, add a stop between any two, or remove one. Stops you added are never swapped out by the AI.
Undo that tells you what it undid
Every AI edit can be undone, and undo names the change and takes you to the day it touched.
Crossing borders
Most good European drives leave the country they started in, and that is where a plan usually goes quiet.
Vignettes and tolls, per country
The day you cross a border names the country's road charge and, for a vignette, the official place to buy it.
Money in the currency you'll spend
Trip costs are quoted in the destination's currency. Subscription prices show in the currency we charge.
The United States, Canada and Europe
Routing, place data and driving estimates are tuned for the United States, Canada and Europe.
Outside them you can still plan, but expect thinner place data and rougher estimates.
Where it runs
Browser or iPhone, with or without an account, with or without signal.
No account to plan
Open the planner and go, with no account and no card. Sign up later and the trips you made come with you.
iPhone app, same trips
The iPhone app plans and edits everything the site does, and tells you when a trip you started is ready.
The day opens without signal
Saved trips live on the phone, so a day opens in a valley with no signal. A new trip still needs a connection.
One link for everyone coming
Each trip has a private link that opens the whole plan in any browser. Nobody needs an account to read it.
27 things it does
One trip, planned properly, takes about a minute.
The annual plan starts with a 3-day free trial. Cancel anytime.
