Dog-Friendly Road Trips and Japan Dream Itineraries Lead Today’s 117 Trip Plans

Published February 3, 2026

Plantrip.io logged 117 new itineraries in the past 24 hours (February 3, 2026), with two clear standouts: pet-friendly road trips across the American heartland and detailed Japan journeys spanning theme parks, samurai culture, and alpine escapes. Short European city breaks and India long-weekend getaways also featured prominently, signaling a mix of ambitious long-hauls and quick-hit adventures.

Across the U.S., multiple users planned a dog-friendly drive from Spokane, Washington to Omaha, Nebraska, specifying stops every two hours at dog parks, daily driving caps of 6–8 hours, and overnights in campgrounds or cabins. Another cross-country request mapped a fastest-route push from Calais, Maine to Alberta, Canada with accommodation every six hours—underscoring a strong appetite for highly-structured overland travel.

Japan emerged as the most requested international destination set, with repeat itineraries in Spanish outlining a mid‑to‑late August couple’s trip focused on Universal Studios Osaka, select Kyoto highlights, the Japanese Alps with a private-bath ryokan accommodating tattoos, and a crowd-light day near Mount Fuji. Interests leaned into photography, anime, gaming, and samurai history, with practical notes on luggage logistics between routes. Additional Japan plans include late October/early November family trips and spring circuits starting in Kyoto and ending in Tokyo that prioritize WWII sites, classic castles, shrines, Nara, Lake Ashi cruises, Mt. Misen hikes, and sumo demonstrations.

Europe saw variety: Amsterdam for five days in April appeared twice, alongside 2–3 day city programs for Seville and Málaga (including Greek-language requests), a Friday–Monday Gothenburg break centered on saunas, swims, vegetarian dining and coffee culture, and longer multi-country schemes covering Italy, Spain, Poland, Austria, and UK combinations of London, Cambridge, Oxford, Edinburgh, and the Isle of Skye.

In South Asia, users concentrated on compact drives and temple circuits: repeated calls for 3‑day luxury stays in Jammu & Kashmir with meals and 5‑star hotels; multiple Ujjain and Dwarka/Somnath two‑day temple routes; Pune‑area coastal loops to Dapoli, Anjarle, and Suvarnadurg; and a Nashik weekend anchored by Sula Vineyards. Short breaks to Mysore–Coorg–Chikmagalur from Cuddalore, Bengaluru to Mysuru, and coastal getaways like South Goa and Gokarna/Honnavara rounded out the list. Elsewhere, Dubai family weeks, Langkawi honeymoons, Mauritius couples’ trips, Vietnam (Hanoi and Phu Quoc), Morocco five‑day plans, and Canadian city stays in Montréal and Québec City highlighted globally spread interest.
