SmartStops: Family Road Trip Planner

Transform chaotic family drives into smooth, memorable adventures with SmartStops — the road trip planner built for real families.

Created by parents for parents, SmartStops takes the stress out of long drives with kids. Whether you’re crossing the country, visiting relatives, or heading out for a weekend getaway, SmartStops helps you find the best places to stop, perfectly timed along the best available route.
