Why use ROADBOOKERS?

If you don’t have much time (work, weekends, planning with others…), ROADBOOKERS helps you prepare a personalized trip by centralizing inspiration, the map, and useful information in a single interface, to avoid multiplying tabs and tools.

In practice, you can:

  • Find where to go based on a month, your wishes and criteria (wish engine).
  • Spot places thanks to search + filters, then save them to favorites.
  • Build your itinerary on a single screen (days, stops, interactive map, distances/times).
  • Add logistics (hotel, car, activity, flight) from the “+” button.
  • Track your budget (by category, by day, per person + a “to do list” of what’s missing).
  • Finalize a roadbook (notes per stop, PDF export, sharing).

ROADBOOKERS is not a travel agency: no booking transaction is made in the app.

Who is ROADBOOKERS for?

Have you ever said this to yourself while planning a trip? If so, you’re in the right place:

“I don’t know where to go” (or I want an idea that fits me)

Your need: you have wishes, but no clear destination.

What ROADBOOKERS gives you: go from “I don’t know where to go” to concrete options, without comparing at random.

  • You use the wish engine (month + wishes + criteria) to get “tailor-made” destination ideas.
  • You open the Destination page to decide faster with the essentials “in one place”, then you start creating your itinerary.
“I want to discover and explore a destination to get a sense of it”

Your need: First, you want to picture it, understand the destination, spot great places, and keep ideas up your sleeve.

What ROADBOOKERS brings you: explore “without committing,” like scouting before you leave — and then turn (or not) what you found into an itinerary later.

  • You discover places and points of interest, and you can save them to Favorites.
  • You explore the destination on a map to see what’s close, what fits together well, and what’s too ambitious.
  • You check practical info to decide more easily (best times, “before you go” tips, points to watch for).
  • You build a reusable idea base so you can plan faster when you’re ready.

In short: you explore freely, you keep your ideas, and you build later when you feel ready.

“I’m planning an itinerary / road trip and I want it to be realistic”

Your need: you want to see your trip day by day, with time/distance between stops.

What ROADBOOKERS gives you: an actionable itinerary, designed to quickly check whether your plan holds up.

  • You manage everything from the main screen: days (D1, D2…), stops, interactive map, estimated distance & time, segments between places, alerts.
  • You adjust your plan “on the fly”: reorder, move to the previous/next day, delete.
  • If plans change, you can reorganize days (drag and drop).
“I want to plan together (without getting lost—and especially without the headache)”

Your need: a trip is often planned with others (partner, friends, family). You want to collaborate without multiplying messages, screenshots, and scattered lists.

What ROADBOOKERS brings you: a shared space to build together, in the same place — without losing the thread.

  • You invite your co-travelers to the trip.
  • You choose the places you like.
  • You build the itinerary together.
  • Everyone can add ideas and enrich the stops.

And yes: it doesn’t stop the “sea or mountains” debates. But at least everyone debates in the same

“I want to add everything without leaving my itinerary”

Your need: you’re building your trip and you want to add logistics at the right time.

What ROADBOOKERS gives you: You build, you complete, you adjust: without switching tools.

  • From the map or the “+” button, you add places, find a hotel, a car rental, a nearby activity, or you search for a flight on the trip dates.
  • The idea? do everything “in one place”, with “the right info at the right time”.
"I’m the type to save everything (and I want to find it easily)”

Your need: you explore, you like, you forget… and you lose your finds.

What ROADBOOKERS gives you: explore, save, then build without starting from scratch.

  • You keep a short list via Favorites to reuse places later.
  • You decide faster thanks to a place’s detailed page (description, location, photos, tags, where to sleep / activities nearby).
“I want to get inspired… but be able to personalize”

Your need: you want a base that works, then adapt it to your style.

What ROADBOOKERS gives you: “you never start from scratch” and you quickly move to a concrete itinerary.

  • You search community itineraries with filters (destination, duration, themes, trip type, categories) and sorting.
  • You can copy an itinerary, then edit it: day order, places, stops, notes.
“I want to avoid budget surprises”

Your need: you want a clear, structured budget, and to spot what’s missing.

What ROADBOOKERS gives you: a “more complete, more reliable” budget with fewer omissions.

  • A to-do list guides you so you don’t forget anything.
  • You add expenses by category (flight, accommodation, car, insurance, etc.).
  • You manage the overall budget / per day / per participant / per category.
“I want a real roadbook that’s useful before AND on site (and shareable)”

Your need: you want a clear, centralized document you can share.

What ROADBOOKERS gives you: “everything is in one place, ready before departure and useful on site”.

  • You switch to the Travel journal / Road book (global view + map, tabs, PDF export, cover).
  • You add notes per stop (tips, to see, where to eat, how to get there…) and you choose private/public.
  • You can publish then share (PDF export, social networks, email link, add a participant).

  • your “I want to go / already visited / favorite” lists serve as your short list,
  • you can find any trip in under 15 seconds.

Tips & tricks

🧭 00 — The “it works” method

The “it works” path (15–30 min)

  • You choose a time period + a mood → you short-list 2–3 destinations
  • You validate a destination → you create your itinerary
  • You place your places day by day → you check feasibility (time/distance)
  • You finalize your RoadBook / Travel journal → you publish + you export as a PDF

1) Go from broad → to precise (otherwise you’ll get scattered)

  • Start with few filters and a simple mood.
  • Only then: narrow down with 1–2 “strong” criteria.
  • Goal: get 2–3 destinations, not 15.

2) Set a “framework” before diving into the details

  • Time period (month), approximate duration, style (sea/culture/nature…).
  • Without that framework, you’ll explore useless places.

3) Recommended routine (fast and reliable)

  • Short-list 2–3 destinations → open their Destination page
  • Make a short list of places (Explore / favorites)
  • Draft day by day → check distances/times
  • Fill in a minimum budget → finalize the journal → publish → PDF

4) Your anti-time-wasting indicator

  • If you can’t eliminate a destination in 5–10 min, it means your criteria are too vague: go back to “wishes + time period”.

🗺️ 01 — Find where and when to go

1) Use 2–4 wishes, no more

  • 2–4 wishes give readable results.
  • Too many wishes = a shortlist that’s “average everywhere”.

2) Choose at most 1 “strong” filter at the beginning

  • Examples of strong filters: sea/islands, mountains, culture, nature, etc.
  • If you apply 3–4 at once, you risk getting almost no destinations.

3) Do 2 passes rather than one perfect pass

  • Pass 1: broad → you note 5 ideas
  • Pass 2: you narrow down → you keep 2–3 destinations

4) Simple decision rule

  • If you hesitate between 2 destinations: keep the one with the most “easy days” (less travel, more must-sees nearby).

5) Quick check ✅

  • You should end up with 2–3 destinations maximum to explore (no more).

🌍 02 — Destination: choose + start an itinerary

1) Your reading order (efficient)

  • Description (1–2 min) → What to see? (must-sees) → Before you go (critical points)
  • What to do? afterwards, if you want to add activities.

2) “Before you go”: what you really need to check

  • Safety, visa/passport, health, currency, plugs, driving (road trip)
  • Even if you already know the country: quick check, just to avoid surprises.

3) Markers (⭐✅❤️): use them as a system

  • ⭐ “I want to go” = backlog (ideas)
  • ✅ “Already visited” = to avoid replanning the same thing
  • ❤️ “Favorite” = premium short list (priority)

4) Start the itinerary early (even as a draft)

  • Creating an itinerary early lets you switch into concrete mode (D1/D2… + map).
  • You can always fix it later.

5) Quick check ✅

  • You should know: “am I going?”, “how many days?”, “road trip or fixed base?”

⭐ 03 — Explore: places + short list

1) Start with a “signature” filter

  • 1 strong filter at the start:
    • Our selection (must-sees / favorite / unusual)
    • or Distinctions (UNESCO / most beautiful villages / parks)
  • This avoids endless scrolling (even if it’s fun!).

2) Keep your short list to a useful size

  • Per destination: aim for 10–20 places max in total at the beginning.
  • Beyond that, you won’t be able to sort anymore.

3) Quick place sorting (3-level rule)

  • Level A: “must-see” (you’ll almost certainly include it)
  • Level B: “option if time”
  • Level C: “good tip if nearby”
  • Tip: your favorites can include A+B, but keep A in mind.

4) Validate a place with at least 3 elements

  • Description + photos + “where to sleep / activities” (if available)
  • If a place doesn’t inspire you in 30 seconds, remove it.

5) Quick check ✅

  • You should have: 5–8 “must-sees” + a few options around them.

✈️ 04 — Organize day by day

1) The best method: a “realistic draft”

  • First, set the main stops (cities / areas) per day
  • Only then: add the specific places

2) The anti-impossible-day rule

  • If you see a lot of distance/time:
    • remove 1 stop
    • or add a night
    • or group by areas
  • Goal: each day should stay “comfortable”.

3) Use the views as tools

  • Map view: geographic consistency
  • List/journal view: narrative consistency (visit order)
  • Grid view: planning overview

4) Reordering = systematic checking

  • After every change:
    • re-check distance/time segments
    • re-check consistency (morning/evening)

5) Watch out for deletions

  • Deleting a day can break budget/notes/links.
  • Good reflex: “I duplicate / I test” rather than deleting abruptly.

6) Quick check ✅

  • Each day has 2–4 stops max (often), and travel remains consistent.

⚙️ 05 — Set up the trip

1) Lock in first: destination(s), dates, duration, title

  • Everything stems from these 4 fields: planning, days, budget.

2) Participants: add only if you accept co-editing

  • Participant ≈ admin.
  • Keep a simple structure (1 lead, 1 co-lead max).

3) Publication: publish only once it’s stabilized

  • In preparation → as long as it’s not “clean” and checked.

4) Transport + default options = huge time saver

  • Car / on foot mode: affects routes.
  • Currency + adults/children/rooms: affects the budget.

5) Quick check ✅

  • Status ok + transport ok + currency ok + participants under control.

💸 06 — Trip budget

1) Start with “the credible minimum”

  • Add the big blocks first:
  • Transport (flight/train/car)
  • Accommodations
  • Main activities
  • Only then: restaurants, extras, buffer

2) Standardize your labels (otherwise you’ll lose track)

  • “Hotel — Lisbon (2 nights)” rather than “Hotel”
  • “Car rental — 6 days” rather than “car”

3) Use the 4 views as a path

  • Summary: does the total look like something?
  • By category: where does the money go?
  • By day: is it realistic day to day?
  • To do list: what’s really missing?

4) Classic mistake: forgetting “invisible” costs

  • Transfers, parking, tolls, insurance, luggage, taxes, fuel, SIM cards…

5) Quick check ✅

  • The To do list should no longer contain big “gaps” (transport/accommodation).

📄 07 — RoadBook / Journal: publish, PDF, notes

1) Think “a document usable on site”

  • Your journal should make it possible to:
  • follow the order of the days
  • find addresses/key info again
  • understand what to do without the app

2) Before publishing: do a mini proofread (3 minutes)

  • Summary: clean, clear
  • Detailed itinerary: no “empty” days
  • Notes: public/private checked

3) Notes: make them actionable

  • A good note = info + a decision:
  • Where to eat? → 2 addresses + why + reservation?
  • Tips → hours + price + tip
  • Getting there → access, parking, transport, time on site

4) PDF export: test it once

  • Check:
  • readability (titles, order)
  • cover
  • notes visible as planned

5) Quick check ✅

  • If you can follow your trip using only the PDF, you’re good.

🧩 08 — Community itineraries: search + copy

1) Use the community as a “base”, not as the truth

  • You copy to save time, then adjust to your style/pace.

2) Choose a “compatible” itinerary

  • Before copying:
  • duration close to yours
  • similar type (couple/family/road trip)
  • realistic density (not 10 stops/day)

3) After duplication: do 3 immediate checks

  • Are the days consistent?
  • Does the geographic order make sense?
  • What do I delete first?

4) Privacy: keep your personal notes separate

  • Personal notes/places aren’t copied (according to your text): that’s an advantage.
  • Add your “private” notes after duplication.

5) Quick check ✅

  • In 10 minutes, you should have an adapted version (even if draft).

👤 09 — Profile & personal space

1) Profile: aim for useful, not complete

  • Photo + 2–3 lines + 3–5 interests: enough.
  • If you publish: a clear profile helps reading.

2) Statuses: your best organization tool

  • In preparation / ongoing / completed: keep them updated.
  • This prevents the “pile” of itineraries you can’t find anymore.

3) Lists (⭐✅❤️): your sorting system

  • ⭐ backlog
  • ❤️ top priorities
  • ✅ history

4) Monthly routine (30 seconds)

  • Once a month:
  • archive completed trips
  • delete/rename useless drafts
  • keep 3–5 wishes max in “I want to go”

5) Quick check ✅

  • You can find a trip in under 15 seconds.

✅ Final validation — “Ready to go”

  • your days have consistent stops + realistic travel
  • your budget no longer has big gaps
  • your journal is clean, and the PDF is usable
