Route Perfect

How to Plan your Perfect Trip to Europe.

When it comes to planning a trip, it’s very rarely easy. Which destinations do you want to visit? What is the optimal route? How many nights are sufficient to stay in each place? What is there to see in the area? And, if you’re hitting up a number of countries in one trip, how do you manage the booking process through so many destinations?

Usually this is all so overwhelming that the responsibility for planning your trip is handed over to a travel agent. Or you join a bus tour. Though what if you could be your own travel agent? What if planning and booking a multi country trip through Europe was genuinely easy to do?

We’ll let you in on a secret – it is! For independent travelers who don’t like to use a travel agent, and prefer to set their own itinerary, there’s now an easy way to plan your perfect trip to Europe. A free do-it-yourself trip planning tool called RoutePerfect which generates European itineraries based on your travel preferences, budget and personal style.

Planning all of a sudden becomes fun instead of a headache, and without realizing it you’ve become your own travel agent. Planning a trip with RoutePerfect is the perfect way to explore the world – your way.

​How to Plan Your Perfect European Trip


​Plan the Perfect Trip for You

RoutePerfect maximizes the travel experience by suggesting the optimal trip for the time you have and the things you love to do.
If we’re to believe guide books and blogs, everything nowadays is a must see. Every experience is a must do. Though if there’s one thing we’ve learnt, it’s that someone else’s experiences aren’t always the perfect fit for you.

For instance you might visit Milan because you’ve been told it’s something you have to do. But why? What’s there for you? It turns out that those rave reviews about the city have been from shopaholics, but you’re not really interested in designer fashion. Once you get there, you’ll probably find that there’s not a whole lot for you to do. So when planning a trip and choosing your destinations, it’s essential to consider the things you like to do.

RoutePerfect makes it really simple to plan the perfect trip for you. You choose a destination to start your trip and a destination to end, and then the platform generates an itinerary for you based off your budget and preferences.

Don’t care about nightlife? Completely remove that from your trip. Your itinerary will update and a different set of destinations will appear. Want more culture or beaches? The platform will add that to your itinerary too. You can then read about your trip in full detail and see the attractions suggested for you.

This is an incredibly powerful planning tool, and the fantastic thing about the platform is that it recommends destinations and attractions for you. It’s a godsend for the indecisive traveler who wants to go to Europe though really has no clue. Though it’s also an amazing planning tool for those with set ideas too.

​Book the Whole Trip as a Package 

The ability to book your whole trip as a package makes the planning process so easy. Once you’ve settled on a perfect route, you have the option to price your trip. As with other travel price comparison websites, RoutePerfect searches from over 100 different suppliers to ensure you have options for the most competitive rates.

And once again, your booking preferences are totally customizable. For those who want as little research and planning as possible, the platform automatically offers hotels for you. After hitting “price my trip” you are presented with a full itinerary, including default hotel recommendations for each evening based off your budget, hotel’s location and TripAdvisor ratings. You can book it all instantly in one transaction without making any changes if you want to.

Though should you want to choose your own hotel and weigh up other options, the platform offers plenty of alternatives too. Hit “change hotel”, and a list of hotels in your selected city shows up. You can sort and filter results by price, tripadvisor ratings, stars or name, pull up relevant property and location information, and add the room to your itinerary after you’ve made your choice. All without having left the page. It’s so easy.

​There is then the option to add a car rental to your booking for each city of your trip, and the platform offers the total package price at the bottom of the page. If you find a better price for that same package elsewhere online they’ll give you $500 towards your trip. They’re quite confident in offering the most competitive rates!

You can save your itinerary for later, or share it via social media. The whole process of planning and booking is so straightforward and simple, that you’ll find you’ve become your own travel agent without realizing it, and that you can do everything they can do.

​In a Nutshell

I can highly recommend Route Perfect as the best trip planning tool we have found for Europe – it offers the right amount of choice and information without over loading you with content. It offers up places you won’t have thought of as well as history and information about each, and allows you to make the planning process as involved as you want it to be.

The travel is carefree – everything is sorted out in advance and all you have to do is present your voucher and the hotel will already have all your details. It means travelling without worries and quicker check in, basically like printing your boarding pass for your flight at home and avoiding the process.

Booking your trip as a package this way saves up to around 20%. When comparing prices offered directly through individual hotels and car rental companies and adding these rates together for a total price of a trip, RoutePerfect beats it.

So explore the map, discover destinations and plan your trip. Then create a package, choose what’s in it and book the entire trip at once.
