Distance Calculator

In spite of all the negative remarks, the calculator is accurate! You must enter the name of the city and the state. Having a common border has nothing to do with the distance between cities!! Play a little, and determine what you are doing wrong. It is not magic!!

What are the distances between Lagos to
Benin city?
How many hours can a bus use to reach the place?

totally crazy figures given for mileage from one country to another in the printed charts for nearest country. For instance distance from Germany to Poland given as over 600 km when it is zero as they have a common border. Same with all the lists giving distances to the next country. If a country has a common border, the distance should always be 0 miles.

Found it total useless. Entered New York City as origin and Albany as destination. Simple, right? Uh uh. Up comes the map with a line between New York City and Atlanta with a distance to match 1362.63 km 846.70 miles. Obviously a non-US site as it notes that miles is a unit of length which is rarely used. What else would be used in the US

Love it!! Soooo easy to use and very accurate.

It's a very helpful app. Simple and efficient.
Is there any app that would show the map on the global sphere ?

It is a good Reference Distance but since all maps are wrong, the distances are also wrong. For instance if you want to plan a sailing trip from Cadiz, Spain to Fortaleza, Brazil, the official distance is 5,586.58 km, but on my Equidistant Azimuthal FLAT EARTH Map I get 7,152.9 km, a difference of 1,566.32 km !!
This happens when you want to tranverse from a North Hemisphere to a South Hemisphere. Another Example, from La Coruña, Spain to Halifax, Canada, the official distance is 4,329 km, and from my Equidistant Azimuthal Flat Earth Map I get 3,988.4 km, a difference of 341 km off the mark. If you want the distance in Nautical Miles, just divide by an arc minute of a degree, that´s to say, 1.855 km/ min.
DO NOT TRUST these Distances whatsoever if you are about to circumnavigate the Flat Globe one day on a Yatch and your Radio-Location System gets No signal at all, let's be clear, SATELLITES do not exist. If you go with that Ignorance, 100% you will wreck your boat. Just my experience from crossing the Atlantic Ocean several times. Be prepared for the big SurPriSe.

excellent site. all information is under one site. keep it up. Proud of Indian site.

Brilliant site.It helps me with my geography homework.

guys, enter the city!

Has a problem with locations. It shows Lima, Peru as being in Portugal.

Very Nice Site

How do I switch to the blue ground miles ?

love it for flight planning

Very nice tool

It does not handle gps coordinates properly. 32.732, -97.279 is in Fort Worth TX, but puts the pin in Florida.

thanks, nice site

this site helps alot

Very useful approximations.
Travel time or road distance would be very helpful

Great site!

What happened to road distances? Air distances are not helpful to local in-country towns especially in African countries where most of our development work takes place

I used to be able to get both air and road distances now I can only get air distance. Is there any way I can get the road distances also ?
Thanks. regards. Tim

Superb distance that i found. Sydney(AUS) to Hvozdnice(CZE)

Nice app to find out the distance between two places and easy to reach Short route with land marks in the map. Awesome.

Very easy to get information and distance and time by map and calculator. Excellent.

Great tool. Helps with figuring out my expenses for travel for work.

Not as good as it use to be, My car is not submersible !

Thanks to your site I was able to calculate my travel distance in the past month at just over 30,000 miles (about 48,000km). I'm from the US and even though I don't use km I still took the time to do some simple math. That's why we're better than you ;)

Hi
Earth's perimeter is almost 20000 KM
We actually calculated the longest distance from some point to another on our beloved planet !
It's Perth to Bermuda with 19943.76 KM and yeah we are not from US so we don't care about how much mile is it :-)
Have a good day lads

What happened to the freeway instructions from point A to point B?????

I don't know what map you use but it sure is not the same as mine----are you in the US?

I asked for distance from Basin,Wy to Watertown, South Dakota and I got the distance to the east coast--- does Watertown,Sd no longer exist?

What is so hard to look up where I want to go instead of where you want? Wake Up

We are importers and site is great in estimates

At one time, also showed driving distance in blue. Nice addition. Wish it was back.

awesome site. very useful for calculating aerial distances. good for aviators.

Very easy to use site, identified my choice of starting city correctly from 3 similarly named places and also the end point, a minor point of interest. No trouble and also lovely there's no ads. Thank you.

Only quibble is the key which states "Miles (mi): is also the unit of length which is rarely used and is equal to 1.60934 kilometers". Here in the UK our travel distances including road signs are in Miles and that is the unit we use for any trip. OK, as a scientist, I studied using metric units and am comfortable with them, but journeys are in Miles!

Greatest distance( That I Found) between cities
Malaga Spain and Auckland New Zealand
19940.9 Kilometers
12390.76 Miles

This website is awesome!! Have been looking for an app like this for SO long! +++

KJ, this isn't taking into those factors, it is just for driving in a straight line and calculating the driving time for that. It is still very useful to me, as I am in a role-play with nations.

very nice site it is. I regularly using the same for distance calculation.

Amazing website, i loved it. i can sit for hours on this;
thank you.

its really very convenient to find the distance, its a blessing

This site is very useful for people during journey

Very Good! - It would be excellent if it could also add third place just to calculate the alternate ways, because this map does not show the shortest or the most picturesque, but the best (simplest) road. For isntance, to drive from Vienna to Paris there are 4-5 alternative roads, all of them 1st class.

how to get km of Multiple city name in excel ,share the link one time get lot of KM

I like this site, however, for quite awhile now I have not been able to get the red (great circle distance) to show on the map...That function was very helpful when it worked, seeing as how I am a pilot.....What do I need to do???

Great service

It is very useful site for people.Good job to the person who invented this.

This work is highly recommendable.I hope you will add average travel speed. In your next edition.
