Travel Time Calculator (with Stops)

Estimate total journey time for a road trip or ride from the distance and your average driving speed, adding stops for fuel, food and rest, with the arrival time for your departure.

A ready-made version of the Speed, Distance & Time Calculator.

How this is calculated

Speed = Distance ÷ Time · Time = Distance ÷ Speed · Distance = Speed × Time · Pace = Time ÷ Distance

Units
Converted through metres and seconds using exact definitions (1 mi = 1,609.344 m; 1 knot = 1,852 m/h)
Pace
Minutes per km or per mile — the inverse of speed, used by runners

Speed, distance and time are linked by one formula: distance = speed × time. Give any two and the third follows. The calculator converts everything through metres and seconds, so you can mix units — a 350 km drive at 70 mph, or a 10 km run at 5:30 per km. Stops are added to the travel time, and the average speed including stops shows the realistic pace of a trip.

Assumptions & sources

  • Speed is an average over the whole distance.
  • Arrival time assumes departure and arrival in the same time zone.

Common questions

What average speed should I use?

Lower than the speed limit: on Indian highways 55–70 km/h is typical once towns, tolls and traffic are counted; on expressways 80–90 km/h.

How much break time should I add?

A common rule is 15 minutes every 2 hours of driving, plus meal stops. Drowsy driving is dangerous — plan rest stops.
