The road trip is an American institution. While much of the appeal is hopping in the car and stepping on the gas, there’s still plenty of planning that goes into making the most of a road trip. That’s particularly true if you’re traveling by RV.

While there are plenty of map apps that can get you from point A to B, they’re not all ideal for road trips, much less RV trips. Between scenic stops and roadside attractions, the best parts of road trips are rarely right on the major highways. For RV travelers, other considerations include finding campgrounds and routes that are friendly to large vehicles. 

One option is Cruise America’s and RoadQuest.ai’s route-planning tool, which was announced earlier this year. The AI-powered search lets travelers generate an end-to-end trip, designed to create optimized routes and simplify planning. The RVTRIP tool also factors in safety and road conditions, generating an RV-friendly map.

Beyond figuring out how to get where you’re going, the RVTRIP tool can make routes with scenic detours and stops at national parks. For trips over multiple days, RVTRIP can plan out drives with balanced mileage to prevent overly long single-day drives. You can also plan a trip by filtering by activity, with options for everything from hiking and horse riding to nightlife and live music. 

Once you submit your dates and preferences, RVTRIP will generate an itinerary, with places to stop, dining options, and activities, plus a breakdown of the miles per day. The route can then be easily saved and opened directly in Google Maps. 

Cruise America and RoadQuest are also adding World Cup-specific search to the RVTRIP tool, letting fans plan out routes between different host cities. The tool lets you search by team and plan a route around their schedule to make the most of the tournament.

Whether you’re an annual road tripper or a beginner, RVTRIP lets you make the most of every trip.
