The Russia Trip Planner helps you turn travel ideas into an itinerary that you can review on a map and share with others. Start with the places you want to include, then group them by day and check how far apart they are. It suits anyone who wants a practical plan before they travel.
Use the Russia Trip Planner to organise your travel ideas into an itinerary you can review on a map and share with others. It provides a starting point for putting your chosen destinations and activities into a practical travel plan. Begin with the places you want to include, then consider how they fit together.
The planner is useful when comparing different versions of a trip or discussing plans with travel companions. Keep your itinerary focused on the places that matter to you, and review the order of your stops before sharing it. You can adjust your choices as your plans develop.

Build an itinerary around your priorities
Start by deciding what you want your trip to include. You might be interested in sightseeing, food, museums, outdoor activities or a combination of different experiences. Use the planner to bring your chosen places together rather than keeping separate notes about each destination. Consider how much you want to fit into your trip and which activities deserve more time. A useful itinerary should be easy to follow without requiring you to rush between every stop. If your initial selection feels too crowded, focus on the places you care about most. You can keep other ideas in mind for a different version of the trip.
Review your route on the map
A map helps you understand the geographical relationship between the places in your itinerary. Review the positions of your chosen stops and consider whether their order makes sense for the journey you have in mind. Places that appear close together may be easier to combine, while widely separated destinations may require more travel planning. Use the map as a visual planning aid rather than assuming it confirms transport connections or journey times. Consider the balance between travelling and spending time at each destination. Revisiting the map after changing your itinerary can help you identify unnecessary detours and decide which stops belong together.
Share your plan and refine it
Once your itinerary reflects your main interests, use the sharing option to discuss it with the people travelling with you. A shared plan makes it easier to compare priorities and explain the route you have chosen. Ask your companions to review the order of destinations and identify activities they particularly want to include. It can also help to distinguish essential stops from optional ideas, especially when everyone has different interests. Treat the itinerary as a working plan rather than a fixed schedule. Before travelling, review the practical details of the places you selected and make any adjustments needed.
