Wanderlog: the all-in-one planning suite

Wanderlog is a very complete travel planner (web, iOS and Android). It handles the itinerary, but also budgeting, flight and hotel reservations (auto-imported from Gmail), Google-Docs-style group collaboration, and road-trip route optimisation. It also imports your places saved in Google Maps.

The trade-off: it's a rich tool, so heavier, and mainly built in English. Several key features — offline access, route optimisation, AI assistant — are reserved for the Pro plan ($39.99/yr).

MyFavsMap: simple, focused on your favourites

MyFavsMap does one thing well: import your Google Maps favourites and show them on a clean map, sorted automatically by category and area, then organise them into day-by-day itineraries. No reservation or budget management — just your places, neatly arranged, ready to explore.

And crucially, what's paid in Wanderlog is free here: offline mode and optimised route order are included at no cost, and the app comes in 5 languages.

Which one to choose?

Complex group trip with flights, hotels, budget and multi-person planning? Wanderlog is built for that — it's a real suite.

Just want to turn your Google Maps favourites into a clean map and an itinerary, without the complexity, for free and in your language? MyFavsMap is lighter and more direct.

The two can complement each other: organise your places in MyFavsMap, and if your trip gets complex (reservations, group), move to a heavier planning tool.
