how do you want to drive it?
Fine-tune: departure, fuel, money
good to know
Is the route a real road route?
Yes. Pin your starting point and the places you want to reach, and driveweekend calculates the actual road route, distance and driving time from OpenStreetMap data. The weekend plan builds itself on that route, and every point opens directly in Google Maps, Waze or Apple Maps. No pins yet? The plan falls back to honest typical distances for your kind of trip.
How accurate are the costs?
Fuel is calculated from your real consumption and local price. Food, stays and extras use honest per-person rates for your budget mood, plus a 10% buffer because weekends never go exactly to plan. Treat it as a solid envelope, not an invoice. The full method is in the cost guide.
Where is my data stored?
Nowhere, by default. There's no account and no server database. Your plan lives entirely in the link itself, and packing-list ticks stay on your device. Bookmark it, send it, or lose it forever. Your call. The one exception is by invitation only: if you opt into our occasional email dispatches (when offered), that address is stored for that single purpose — details in the privacy policy.
Is driveweekend really free?
Yes. No login, no paywall, no cookies, no tracking. If that ever changes, it'll be with clearly marked partnerships, never with your data.
