Looking for a different trip planner? Here is where Eurica fits
Eurica is a free trip planner for people who do the planning themselves: days on an hourly timeline, stops on a real map, tickets attached to the stops they open. It does not book anything, and it does not decide anything for you. Whether that is the right trade depends on how you plan now.
A note on comparisons
Other people’s products change, and a feature table written today is wrong within a year. So this page describes the kind of tool each one is, which is stable, rather than ticking boxes that are not. Check the current details with them, not with us.
If you plan in a spreadsheet
You are Eurica’s starting point, not its opposite. A spreadsheet is the best collecting tool there is: fast, yours, no opinions. What it cannot do is the day itself — it will not tell you the two stops are thirty minutes apart, it will not hold the PDF, and moving one row means retyping four.
So you do not have to abandon it. Import the spreadsheet and keep the work.
If your plan lives in your inbox
Tools like TripIt exist to read your booking confirmations and assemble a trip from them. If what you want is for flights and hotels to appear on their own, that is the category to look at, and Eurica is not it: Eurica does not read your email, and there is no forwarding address.
The trade is the other way round. A trip built from confirmations is made of the things you bought. A trip built by hand also contains the walk you wanted to take, the market that is only open on Sunday, and the afternoon you deliberately left empty — none of which ever sends a confirmation email.
If you use one of the big planners
Tools like Wanderlog cover the whole arc: find places, save them, sort them into days, and book. They are broad, and broad is genuinely useful when you do not yet know where you are going.
Eurica is narrow on purpose. It assumes you have already decided, and it puts everything into the part that comes after deciding: the hour-by-hour day, the walking time between one stop and the next, and the paperwork. Nothing is suggested to you — every stop on the timeline is one you put there.
What Eurica does not do
The honest list, so you can rule it out quickly if one of these is a deal-breaker.
- It does not book anything. No flights, no hotels, no tickets. You book where you always did and bring the confirmation in.
- It does not read your email. Bookings are typed, or imported from a spreadsheet.
- It does not recommend places. There is no “things to do nearby”. What is in the trip is what you chose.
- There is no app to install. Eurica runs in a browser, on a phone as well as a laptop, but you will not find it in an app store.
- It does not work offline, with one exception. Maps and files are fetched when you open them; opening Live is the one moment Eurica loads ahead, pulling today’s tickets into memory so they open at a turnstile with no signal.
What you get instead
| What | What it means in practice |
|---|---|
| An hourly day | Stops sit at their real time, side by side when they overlap, with a band for the ones with no time yet. |
| Real walking times | The map draws the route between stops and puts the minutes on each leg. Not straight-line distance. |
| Typed bookings | A flight has a seat and a reference, a hotel has a check-in, a rental has a pick-up desk. They are not generic stops. |
| Tickets on the stop | The PDF is attached to the thing it opens, and deleted sixty days after the trip. |
| Spreadsheet import | An .xlsx becomes a trip, places looked up on the map. |
| Sharing with roles | View or edit, with files a separate decision. |
| Free | No trial, no card, no paid tier holding a feature hostage. |
Questions
Is Eurica free?
Yes. No trial, no card, and no paid plan that the useful features sit behind.
Can I move my trips out of Eurica?
The import direction is a spreadsheet in. There is no one-click export back out, which is a fair thing to hold against it — if leaving cleanly matters to you, know that before you put a long trip in.
Does Eurica have a mobile app?
No. It is a web app and works in a phone browser, but there is nothing to install.
Who is Eurica not for?
Anyone who wants the trip assembled for them, wants to book inside the app, or wants their confirmations to appear by themselves. Those are real needs and Eurica meets none of them.
