Google My Maps route planner [step-by-step tutorial]

Показать описание
Google Maps Route Planner is a tool (Google My Maps) that I'm going to show you how to use to plan the best route for your next trip including pinning all your places you want to visit, i.e. pin the restaurants, pin places to stay, pin things to do, pin destinations, pin hiking and biking trails, pin people to visit! It's easy and it only takes a few minutes to set-up and get you going once you know exactly what to do. Once you've pinned everything, you can then figure out where you want to travel to in that area. Google My Maps can seem a little daunting at first, but once you know how to use it, you'll love it!

I'm also going to show you how to use the Google My Maps route planner on your mobile device so you can easily get to your destinations and enjoy your trip and vacation.

★ My Story
Hi, I'm Amber and in May 2017 I started full time RV living. I started this nomadic journey after selling my house and all my belongings to pursue this crazy dream of traveling full time in an RV and creating incredible memories.

After 1 year of traveling, I sold my 26 foot Winnebago Class C RV for a more nimble Class B van on a Promaster 2500 chassis. Now in my 4th year of RVing in my camper van, I'm still loving this RV lifestyle and being a digital nomad. I almost always boondock in nature and really enjoy that off grid living.

Hi from the UK. I am brand new to Google My Maps. I just sat through 2 other overcomplicated Youtube tutorials on GoogleMyMaps and was just about to have a long break in frustration when I came across your video and I was just like yes! thank you! The 2 other tutorials couldn't even explain what layers were clearly and you just got straight to the point and explained it all clearly. Yippeee! I have started my first map.

Professor Amber you rock. Beautiful and clear tutorial on map making. It was a delight to watch and learn from you. I'm a recently retired map maker (used ESRI & Google) and love your work.

I learned so much, you are a great teacher. I've used the my maps to plan motorcycle trips but I was uninformed about layers! This answered all the questions I didn't know to ask. Thanks!

Great tutorial. Never have used the ruler or embedded web links in the add note section. Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge.

Thank you for the detailed overview. I managed to figure a lot of this out but came to this video to see how to use the "directions" tool on mobile.

This is a massive oversight by Google. Seriously what's the point of doing a custome driving route with out being able to hit "start" and it populate on mobile ?

Just to see distance? Wow.

I tried using this feature while in Hawaii as we had 10 destinations along one road. I had to manually input each one because I couldn't figure out how to hit start on the directions layer. Ugh

This so helpful Amber. I’m going to use this when I drive my mom across the country.

Clear and to the point tutorial. Specifically liked layers with accommodations, sightseeing and friends&family separated and color-coded. Turning itinerary into a navigation on mobile device is still a mundane task but at least some solution.
My moto trip planning before this tutorial was based on putting next gas station. And big problem was Google's limit of 10 points.
Now with separate layers for gas and supply shopping places it can and will be done the easy way.
Big thanks to Amber! Subscribed!
