Overview

The Travel Planner MCP Server is an implementation designed to facilitate interaction with Google Maps and travel planning services, enabling LLMs to perform various travel-related tasks such as location searches, place details lookups, and travel time calculations.

To use the Travel Planner MCP Server, you can either run it using npx with your Google Maps API key or install it globally and run it with the same key. Configuration is also available for integration with the Claude Desktop app.

  • Search for places using Google Places API. - Retrieve detailed information about specific places. - Calculate routes between two locations with various travel modes. - Get timezone information for specific locations.
  1. Finding nearby restaurants or attractions while traveling.
  2. Planning routes for road trips or commutes.
  3. Integrating travel planning capabilities into applications using LLMs.
