Evaway - Trip planning made easy!

I recently started using the site above to plan my ideal road trip across the US and it's pretty good.  You can have a look at the plan on the new L&TAP page above "My US & Canada Road Trip Plan...".

The pros:

  • The journey times appear quite accurate
  • You can measure journeys using a number of different travel options i.e. on foot, by car, by plane etc
  • Most cities are listed.  If not you add it.
The cons:
  • A lot of the information on places is in French as it's a French/US site.  Don't worry too much however you can still see the sight in English and if you want tourist information you can use a tour guide.  You're mostly using this site to plan your trip timewise, and for that it's seems to do the job


I'll let you know how well it works once I get to actually take my trip.  From what I've read so far elsewhere it appears as accurate as any travel agent or booking company who want to plan my road trip for me and have me pay them a couple of hundred pounds for the work!
