Trains, buses, ferries, shared taxis, the occasional hitch. bysloth maps a realistic overland route between any two cities — and is honest about the legs it isn't sure about.
Free · 3 routes a month · no card
Every route marks each segment: verified, check locally, or uncertain. We won't pretend a border is open when it isn't.
Five modes, no flights. We route through the real network — including the scrappy bits other tools skip.
Warnings surface at the leg level, not buried in a PDF. If the Wagah border closes, your plan knows.
Two cities. Any continents.
Confidence marked on every leg.
We link Busbud, Trainline, and local operators.
Notes sync with your route.
"Finally, a planner that admits when it doesn't know. I spent ten minutes on bysloth instead of ten hours on forums."
bysloth is a planner for overland travel. Give it two cities and it maps a realistic route between them using trains, buses, ferries, and shared taxis — no flights — with a confidence rating on every leg.
Yes — bysloth is free during its current private beta, with no paid plans.
No — bysloth plans the route and links out to the operator for each leg. It doesn't process payments itself.
