Create an Interactive Travel Map of Your Tours and Activities

Create custom markers

One of the key features of Map My Travels is to customize the way you want to show waypoints on your travel map. That's why you can add markers to your map in multiple ways:

• Create your own using the custom marker builder. Customize the marker icon and border and fill colors.
• Upload your own marker icon and resize it to your needs

Add content to your travel map

A map marker without information is not a good marker! People want to know what happened at that specific place. That's why you can easily add a popup to your markers and routes, where you can add the following pieces of content:

• Title
• Description + date
• Image
• Youtube Video

Fill your travel map with content!

Embed the travel map on your own website

You can share your map in many different ways. You can share a link to the map on social media or where ever you like. You can also embed the map on your own website, like I've done on my personal website! It doesn't matter if your website is made with Wordpress, Squarespace or any other.

Upload GPS files

Upload your recorded travel data with ease. In the Map My Travels editor you can upload GPS files in the following formats:

• GPX
• KML

After you've added the GPS files you can still change the line's appearance, like color, thickness, opacity etc.

Import your Strava Activities

If you host your travel activities on Strava, a popular fitness app on which you can share your traveled routes (usually used by hikers or cyclists), you can import these directly into the map creator!

Draw lines

If you don't have any recorded route data like from Strava or a GPS file, you can still add lines to your map by just drawing on the map!

Change the look of your travel map

You can customize the look of your map with 4 different map types that Google Maps provides:

• Roadmap
• Satellite with place labels and roads etc.
• Satellite without any text
• Terrain

Create as many travel maps as you want!

You can add as many travel maps in your account as you want, completely free! There are only limits on the amount of markers and routes you can add to your maps. But you can get started for absolutely free. See more information on pricing and limits on the pricing page.

Create travel maps on any device

All of the map creator features are totally compatible with both laptops and phones. Out of personal experience, I'd recommend editing the maps on a laptop or computer. The experience is a bit better for panning around the map, but it's totally possible to do it on a phone as well. Your travel map will look beautiful either way!
