Description
Place pins on a worldwide map for each location you want to visit, then see your route. Enter trip details for each location and create a complete trip itinerary. Multiple sample files are available, including an informative Route 66 sample file.
You can demo this app by downloading our free RTP Viewer app. RPT Viewer is virtually identical to this app except with RTP Viewer you can’t save your edits.
Road Trip Planner does not require any subscription and respects your privacy by not collecting any of your data.
MAP PINS HOLD WHAT YOU NEED. Each pin shows:
- arrival date & time
- departure date & time
- travel time to this location
- time spent at this location
- name of pin (such as John’s house)
- address of pin
- notes and images
- custom pin color and icon
- URL for related information
- weather reports
- transport type (driving or walking)
- Internet Search results
- list of activities (lodging, sights to see, etc.)
- choose between multiple routes (if available)
- view driving distance between pins, driving time, fuel cost, travel advisories, turn-by-turn driving directions
- Export pin data to your calendar.
EACH PIN CAN HAVE MANY ACTIVITIES. For each activity you can record:
- name of activity
- activity date, time and duration
- cost
- phone
- FAX
- address
- URL
- email address
- confirmation number
- notes
- picture
There are two types of pins. Route Pins are used to create the route. POI Pins mark points of interest on the map.
Choose between Apple Maps or OpenStreet Maps. Cache non-Apple maps to disk for offline use. See the settings and Help for more info.
For air and rail routes a straight line can be displayed between pins.
Add, remove or rearrange the pins in any order you wish. Routes and pins can be sent to Apple Maps.
Import and export GPX data files.
Each trip can be saved as a separate document. Perfect for anyone who wants to maintain a record of past trips.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PURCHASING:
The mapping and routing functionality Road Trip Planner uses is based upon Apple’s maps technology. If Apple Maps cannot find a route between map pins, then neither can Road Trip Planner. Please test the area you wish to travel using Apple’s Maps app to ensure that the area can be routed. If it cannot be routed, please submit the issue to Apple. If Apple Maps cannot perform routing in the area you wish to travel then neither can Road Trip Planner.

Ratings and Reviews
Great Route Planning App
I used Microsoft Autoroute for years and have not found anything as good since they stopped supporting it in 2015. This comes pretty close. Uses Apple Maps as it’s source, so everything you see there, you’ll see on this. All the POI’s are available, you don’t need to load them from other web sites. Very intuitive to use, even shows elevation over a route on the iPhone/iPad version. This didn’t work for me initially but with very prompt support from the developer, I had it working within 24 hrs. I use the iMac version as well which you do have to pay extra for and that’s my only slight irritation. Still cheap at the price though. Definitely recommend.
The best app I have used for planning caravan holidays
I have tried many apps to enable me to plan long distance European touring caravan holidays. The best I had found so far were InRoute and NewRoute. Both are very good but Road Trip Planner is SO much better.
The tools provided make it so easy to research stopping places, showing distances between, to or from previous waypoints. The ability to add notes, web links etc to each waypoint is so useful.
Despite a previous review by someone who obviously hadn't gone deep enough into the app, I can assure you that distances can be set to miles or km.
The free of charge RTP Reader version of the app does everything except permit saving of routes so download this and try it out before purchasing the full version. If like me you need to research, plan and record planned trips with all the necessary information attached, you will happily pay for the full version.
Well done to the author for an excellent, well thought out tool for great trip planning and NO, I do not know him or have any connection with him but truly hope the app will be successful enough for him to continue to develop and support it in the future.
