Travel deals built around what you love to do.
Choose an activity — surfing, skiing, a festival, hiking or a city break — and TravelScanning will scan flights, trains, buses, hostels and hotels worldwide. Each destination is scored against six live signals: wave height, wind, swell, sun hours, cost-vs-average and total travel time. Perfect for budget travellers, 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.
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 clearly displayed upfront.
Multi-city road trips
"3 days in Barcelona, 2 in Valencia, 2 in Madrid" — the planner builds the entire itinerary with hostels, budget transport, total cost and a clear 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-friendly train or bus option when available — same destination, lower footprint, often just a bit slower.
