Drop pins on the map, build day-by-day stages, and turn scattered ideas into a real itinerary, all in one place.

Start planning free See how it works

One map. One itinerary. Zero chaos.

Ditch the tab-switching. Places, stages and schedules... always at hand.

How it works

Built for how real trips actually happen

From your first spark of inspiration to wandering the streets... we've got every step covered.

Step 1 · Collect

Capture every idea before you forget it

Stop losing great ideas across chats, phone memos, and fifty browser tabs. Save every spot with its exact position, hours, notes and category... done.

  • Instant geocoding

    Type a name or address and we drop the pin instantly, right where it belongs.

  • Opening hours and notes

    Never show up on the wrong day. Track hours, ticket prices and notes in one tap.

  • Colors and categories

    Color-code sights, restaurants, hotels and stops so you can spot anything at a glance.

Step 2 · Schedule

Build a schedule that actually works

Forget messy spreadsheets. Split your trip into stages, arrange activities on a simple daily board, and get instant alerts before you double-book or show up closed.

  • Morning, noon, afternoon, evening

    Plan in flexible blocks, not a rigid minute-by-minute timetable.

  • Hours and duplicate visit alerts

    We flag it instantly if you've scheduled a spot for a day or hour it's closed.

  • Stages and flexible calendar

    Break road trips and multi-city adventures into stages, each with its own dates.

Your travel copilot - works even offline

Exploring on foot shouldn't mean staring at a loading spinner. TVL Buddy shows you exactly how far each place is and which way to walk, saving your battery and your roaming data.

  • Your list, sorted by distance

    One tap tells you what's closest, how far, and which direction to walk.

  • Roaming saver mode

    Reuses cached maps instead of downloading new tiles, built to save data when you're abroad.

  • Also works offline

    Your itinerary, notes and tickets... accessible anytime, even in airplane mode.

Plus: pro-level tools for serious travelers

No ads, no tracking, no nonsense, just the tools real trip planners actually need.

Universal import & export

Bring in places from Google My Maps, Furkot, KML or CSV. Export everything to JSON whenever you want - your data, your rules.

100% private guest mode

No sign-up, no waiting. Jump in instantly as a guest... your data stays on your device unless you choose to sync.

Cloud & sync

Sign in with Google and your trips follow you everywhere... synced, versioned, shareable.

Personal AI assistant

Bring your own OpenAI, Gemini, local Ollama or other provider key for smart suggestions and auto-filled hours, no hidden costs, ever.

The pro tools, up close

Smart help, safe edits, a calendar under control

Three tools do the heavy lifting: an AI assistant that reworks the whole project in one go, a version history you can always roll back to, and a day-by-day calendar built for real trips.

AI assistant

Hand the boring parts to the AI

Bring your own key (OpenAI, Gemini, local Ollama...) and pick an operation: the AI reworks the whole project and shows you the result before touching anything.

  • Five operations, one click

    Suggest new POIs (points of interest), optimize the itinerary, enrich hours and addresses, auto-build stages, or run a free-form request.

  • Nothing changes without your OK

    Every proposal lands on a review screen: counts, stages, and a clear overwrite-or-cancel choice.

  • Automatic backup, every time

    Before applying AI edits, a safety copy is saved to the version history. Rewinding is always possible.

Ask the AI
Suggest new POIs Adds relevant POIs (points of interest) to the project's places
Optimize itinerary Assigns every POI to a stage and minimizes travel
Automatic stages Creates stages in a date range and schedules the POIs
Enrich contents Fills in addresses, opening hours and notes of existing POIs
Free-form request Describe the change you want, in your own words
Version history

Experiment fearlessly, rewind anytime

Every overwrite — AI edits, imports, big reworks — stashes a safety copy first. And you can snapshot a version by hand whenever the plan feels right.

  • One tap, one snapshot

    Save the current project as a new version: number, timestamp, done.

  • Restore is one arrow away

    Pick a version, hit restore, and the project goes back to exactly how it was.

  • Quota always in plain sight

    Each plan says how many versions per project you get. No surprises.

Calendar

See the trip day by day

Browse dates within a stage, filter by morning-to-night slots, and keep planned stops and unscheduled ideas on one screen.

  • Slot filters that respect opening hours

    Pick morning, noon, afternoon, evening or night: the pool only shows places you can actually visit then.

  • Browse by stage or place

    Jump between stages and filter by city without losing the day you're on.

  • Planned vs. pool, side by side

    The day's itinerary above, everything still to schedule below: deciding what to move gets easier.
