Wanderlog is the spreadsheet-killer for group trips: collaborative itineraries on a map, auto-imported bookings, expense splitting and route optimization, with an AI suggest feature on top. 1M+ users, 4.9 App Store rating, Google Play Editor's Choice.
Wanderlog is what the shared trip spreadsheet wanted to be when it grew up. Everyone edits the itinerary together in real time, every stop lands on a map, confirmation emails forward in and file themselves, expenses split without the end-of-trip accounting fight, and the route optimizer untangles the day you accidentally planned to criss-cross the city four times. A million-plus users, a 4.9 App Store rating and a Google Play Editor's Choice badge say the formula works.
The AI is genuinely useful and honestly secondary. An explore feature suggests attractions and restaurants when a day looks thin, and it's good at exactly that, filling gaps. Reviewers consistently note the AI feels supplementary next to the AI-first planners, and they're right. Wanderlog's soul is the collaborative machinery, and the machinery is the best in the category.
The free tier covers real planning: itineraries, collaboration, maps, imports. Pro adds route optimization, offline maps and the deeper AI features, on an annual subscription (users grumble about the missing monthly option, fairly). For one big group trip a year, the free tier usually suffices.
Group trips and road trips, no contest. If you're a solo traveler who wants a machine to hand you a finished plan, Mindtrip or Layla do that better. If four friends need to agree on ten days in Portugal without a group-chat meltdown, nothing else here comes close.
The best collaborative trip planner available, with just enough AI. Start the group trip here and argue about museums in the app instead of the chat.
