Rome2Rio

Figuring out how to travel between two unfamiliar destinations can be really tricky, especially if you don’t have much experience. So if you’re planning to backpack or travel to different countries, Rome2Rio will be a lifesaver.

The app is pretty straightforward: simply enter two locations, and it’ll show you different ways to make the journey. Instead of assuming you need to fly, you might discover a combination involving a train or ferry that’s faster, cheaper, or lets you enjoy the view a bit more.

Rome2Rio currently covers more than 10 million locations across over 240 countries and territories. It pulls its information from more than 20,000 transport operators, so the data you get is accurate and up to date.

It’s particularly helpful when planning a vacation across several cities or countries. You can quickly get an idea of your transportation options before digging deeper into individual schedules and bookings.
