Directions & Routing

Mapbox's Directions API calculates optimized routes for driving, cycling, and walking, complete with turn-by-turn instructions, estimated travel times, and distance. You can display routes on the map, offer multi-stop itineraries, and account for real-world road networks and conditions.

For Okanagan tourism and hospitality businesses, routing is a natural fit. A wine trail website can calculate a custom route visiting a visitor's selected wineries in optimal order. A tourism operator can show driving times from Kelowna to each of their activity locations. A restaurant can display walking directions from nearby hotels or parking areas, making it easy for out-of-town visitors to find you.

Multi-stop routing is especially valuable for the Okanagan's tourism-driven economy. A visitor planning a day trip can build a custom itinerary — winery in Summerland, lunch in Penticton, hiking at Skaha Bluffs — and see the total driving time and optimized route. A delivery service can optimize driver routes across the valley. A property management company can show prospective guests the driving distances to nearby attractions, restaurants, and activities. These routing features turn your website into a planning tool that adds genuine value for visitors.
