Each destination is scored against six live signals: wave height, wind, swell, sun hours, cost-vs-average and total travel time. Built for budget travelers, especially 18–30 backpackers.

Everything you need for the trip you actually want

Other apps ask you "Where?". TravelScanning asks "What do you want to do?" — and works backwards.

Activity-first search

14 activities — surfing, kitesurfing, skiing, snowboarding, hiking, running, marathon, trail, city tours, museums, golf, concerts, parties, sunbathing — each with their own scoring model.

Multi-modal transport

Flights, high-speed trains, budget buses (FlixBus, BlaBlaBus style), and driving routes — including EV charging stops — compared side-by-side.

Real stays for every budget

Hostels (4/6/8/10-bed dorms, private rooms), apartments, camping and hotels — with social areas, amenities and age restrictions surfaced upfront.

Multi-city road trips

"3 days in Barcelona, 2 in Valencia, 2 in Madrid" — the planner builds the whole itinerary with hostels, budget transport, total cost and a clean daily budget breakdown.

Smart match scoring

Every result gets a 0–100 score that combines weather, activity conditions (wave height, snow depth, sun hours), travel time, total cost and savings vs. the average.

Eco alternative, every time

Every flight result shows a CO₂-friendlier train or bus alternative when available — same destination, lower footprint, often only marginally slower.

Search by what you want to do
