Field notes
The route builder starts with a catalog that can be filtered by island or theme, or searched by English place name. Its examples distinguish driving, ferry, domestic-flight, and free-day segments, and show estimated daily driving rather than only a total trip distance. The site says it flags seasonal availability and reservation needs. It also discloses booking commissions and says itinerary ranking is kept separate from commission data.
