Discover the world through people you trust
Search a destination and find the hotels, activities, museums and meals the people you know loved there, each with a note in their own words.

Every trip starts with the same texts.
Someone you know has already been where you’re going. They know which neighborhood to stay in, which beach is worth the drive, and which museum works with kids.
Their answers are good. They’re also scattered across group chats and old threads, and gone the next time anyone asks.
Beenlist keeps those trips in one place, so you can search them, collect them and even message the person who went.
Where’s the best beach in Turks and Caicos?
Is Polanco the best neighborhood to stay in Mexico City?
Can anyone recommend a great guide for kids at the Vatican?
Where should I go for a romantic dinner in Istanbul?
Questions our founder, Roxy, used to text her friends before every trip. Read her note
Planning Paris with the people who’ve been.
You’re taking the kids to Paris in April. Here’s how that goes in Beenlist.
Where they stayed, what they did, where they ate.
A friend’s trip holds everything that made it work: the room, the morning in the park, the museum that held the kids’ attention, and the lunch afterwards. And even the people that made it special - the airport driver, the amazing tour guide, the private chef.
You know who went there and whether or not their tastes match yours.
A five-star average review can’t tell you that Sarah travels with two kids and plans around parks and early dinners. Knowing that tells you how much her advice fits your trip.
When your friends have been somewhere, Beenlist shows which of them went, when, and what they said. If you want to know more, ask them about that exact place.
When nobody you know has been to a destination you're searching, Beenlist says so, and keeps that separate from the places your friends recommend.
Your own trips belong here too.
Before your friends join, Beenlist is already a good home for the trips you’ve taken. Pick photos from a trip, easily log all your stops, and keep all your travel memories in one place you can go back to.
Each trip has its own setting for who can see it: Private, Friends or Public. Trips you add always default to Private; change the visibility when you're ready
The next time a friend texts you about Tulum, you can send them the whole trip.
Starting in Austin, with trips from everywhere.
