ScoutMyTrip allows 25 points on a single map compared to 10 that Google offers. To start doing that you'll need to head to the road trip planner and simply enter and start and end locations.

There is more you can do on the planner, and I would request you to check out our video tutorials.

You can also simply pick a curated road trip experiences that you and your friends can enjoy!

Did you Indians spent over 900 million hours last year planning vacations? And even after spending so much time planning, they are still caught with uncertainties that come with travel - how are the roads, where are the good restaurants, will my family be comfortable and so on. So why not leave the planning to the experts; and travel worry free. All you need to do is Hire a Scout who does all this for you, and provides online virtual trip assistance while you are traveling.

Sounds like a good idea? Sure is, because it's the hottest innovation in the travel industry; and travelers love it!

It's time to Hire a Scout and travel worry free!
