Plan a road trip around the spots worth stopping for.
Tell Photerra where you're starting and where you're headed — "San Francisco to Portland" — and it plans a route through the real photo-spots along the way: the overlooks, the pull-offs, the small-town corners worth the detour. Built from real travelers' photos, nothing invented. And it's not only for driving — plan a city walk or a bike route exactly the same way.
From "A to B" to a real plan.
Say where you're going
Type your start and finish — "SF to Lake Tahoe road trip," or a walk across a city. Pick your pace and how you're travelling: driving, walking, or biking.
Photerra maps the route
It follows the real roads (or paths) from A to B and finds the photo-spots that actually sit along the way — in route order, never off in the wrong direction, and never a list of gas stations.
Get a day-by-day plan
The route splits into days by how far you want to go each day, with the real stops in order. Save it, adjust it, and follow it on the map.
The hard part isn't the drive — it's what's worth stopping for.
Every other planner hands you the big-name stops or a wall of businesses. What's actually worth pulling over for between two places has never really been solved, because those spots aren't in any business database — they're the viewpoint past the exit, the bend where the coast opens up, the mural on a side street. On Photerra every one is a real photo a traveler took standing right there — no business listings, no paid placements, and it's free to plan the whole route, not just the first few stops.

A road trip, a city walk, a bike route.
Road trips
"San Francisco to Portland." Real stops strung along the drive, split into days by how far you want to cover.
City walks
An afternoon on foot from one end of a city to the other, routed past the spots worth seeing between here and there.
Bike routes
A ride through the hills or along the water — the same A-to-B planning, paced for two wheels.
New roads get mapped by the people who drive them.
Some routes are richer than others. Where a stretch is still thin on spots, Photerra shows you honestly instead of padding it with filler — and you can be the first to map that drive, dropping the spots that make it worth taking for the next traveler. No ads, no sponsored stops, and we don't sell your data. Free on iOS and Android.
Planning a route, the quick version.
How is this different from Google Maps or Roadtrippers?
Google Maps gets you from A to B but doesn't tell you what's worth stopping for along the way. Roadtrippers and the rest pull from business listings — restaurants, attractions, chains. Photerra's stops are real photos travelers took at the exact spot, so you get the overlooks and corners a business database can't know.
Does it work for walking or biking?
Yes. Pick driving, walking, or biking — the same A-to-B route planning works for a road trip, a city walk, or a bike route. Distances and days adjust to how you're travelling.
Are the stops real places?
Every one. They're photo-spots real travelers pinned at exact coordinates — nothing invented, nothing scraped. If a stretch of your route is still thin, Photerra tells you honestly instead of padding it with filler.
