Distance Cost Calculator

This calculator calculates the cost of travel by multiplying the distance traveled in kilometers (or miles) by the rate per kilometer (or mile).

Calculating the cost of distance travelled is an important task for many people, including drivers, transportation companies, and anyone who needs to budget for travel expenses. The process is fairly simple - the distance travelled is multiplied by the rate per kilometer (or mile) to determine the total cost. For example, if a driver travels 100 kilometers and the rate per kilometer is $0.50, the total cost would be $50.

There are several factors that can affect the rate per kilometer/mile, including fuel prices, vehicle maintenance costs, and labor costs. Transportation companies may also need to factor in other expenses, such as insurance and taxes, when determining their rates. In addition, some companies may offer discounts or special rates for certain types of travel or customers.

Travel Cost Calculator

Planning a trip? Have you considered the cost of accommodation, entertainment and dining out along the way?

When budgeting for a trip, you can use our online travel cost calculator that can help with planning travel expenses including hotel costs, attractions, transportation and food.

This free estimator is for any traveler who simply wants to figure out a budget for a next trip.

Choose your destination, number of travelers, travel month, your preferences, and the TravelPriceWatch trip calculator will give you a travel cost estimate made just for you.

The tool provides a rough estimate and we are not intended to provide any financial advice, but you can use this information to see if these costs meet your budget or what the best time to visit the destination is.

Prices are shown in U.S. dollars (US$), Euro (€) and local currency to make the calculations easier to use.

How do we calculate your travel costs?

Accommodation rates are based on average rates for a standard double/twin room for two adults. The peak and off - season rates are taken into account. Shoulder season rates, holidays and tourist taxes are not included in the estimate. Accommodation rates may vary greatly depending on how far in advance you book, cancellation policies, special offers and deals, etc. The hotel prices we’ve collected are all well-rated hotels in the popular tourist areas in a city center.

Transportation prices:

• Public transport: 24-hour pass or 4 single/one-way tickets per person per day
• A 10 km (7 miles) taxi ride in a city center
• Midsize car rental. A car hire cost is calculated per day, so it might be a lot cheaper to rent by a week or two weeks. SCDW insurance is not included in the estimate.

Food prices:

• Cheap eats: street food, fast food, e.g. Big Mac & Coke for a lunch
• Mid-range cafes and restaurants: a set lunch menu or a one main meal + dessert + coffee for a lunch; 2-course dinner without drinks
• Fine dining: breakfast and lunch in mid - range cafes and restaurants; dinner: Tasting Menu without wine
• 1 alcohol drink: a glass of wine or beer
• 3 drinks: a glass of wine, beer and cocktail

Attractions :

• Two attraction tickets listed in "Things to Do"
• Two popular attraction tickets and one tour

Unexpected travel expenses such as tips, souvenirs, a bottle of water, public toilet fees, etc.

Cost To Drive

The cost to drive app helps you calculate the cost of driving between cities, taking into account how much gas you'll need, current gas prices, mileage driven, fuel efficiency of your car or truck in MPG, and other variables. Calculate your driving cost and plan a road trip using this tool.

How to Calculate Cost of Travel

Last Updated: September 27, 2023

Calculating your travel costs can help you plan and organize your trip, and though it may seem difficult or confusing, it’s actually pretty easy to do. Look into the cost of lodging, vehicle rentals, fuel costs, flight costs, and any other expenses you may incur. Gather all of your costs together and keep them organized so you can plan for expenses and calculate your costs. You can also use a formula to figure out your fuel costs if you’re driving to your destination.

Calculating Your Travel Budget

• Use a spreadsheet to organize costs, make plans, and keep a checklist of items.
• Write down any expenses that you make or plan to make in the document.

• You can also estimate your budget based on other round trip ticket prices. For example, if you’re in the US, you could calculate round trip tickets across the country at around $500.
• Look for roundtrip ticket deals that bundle your flights together.
• Compare rates of round trip flights online so you can find the most affordable option.

• For example, if a rental company charges $50 a day, and you need to rent a vehicle for 3 days, then you’ll need to budget at least $150 for rental costs.
• If you’re traveling far, choose the vehicle with the best mileage so you can save on fuel costs.

• Search online to determine the type of travel you’ll use.
• Find out the costs of using the transportation, whether it’s a rental fee or a ticket price, and estimate how much you’ll need to budget for it. For example, if you plan to take a ferry to visit a remote island at least 4 times, and the ticket prices are $5 per trip, then you can budget $20 for ferry tickets.
• If you’re unsure of how to arrange for transportation at your destination, contact a travel agency and ask them to assist you. You’ll have to pay them for their services, but they’ll be able to fully assist you!

• For instance, if you plan to stay at a hotel that costs $100 a night, and you plan to stay for 5 days, then you’ll need to budget $500 to stay there for the duration.
• Calculate your total lodging costs by adding together the total amounts of each place you plan to stay.
• You can find rental rates for many hotels on their website.

• Check to see if there are any restaurants that you plan to visit so you can adjust your food costs based on the prices of the restaurant.
• If you plan to eat on the airplane, contact the airline to find out the cost of meals.

Tip: A good rule of thumb is to figure about $20 of food costs per person for a full day of traveling.

• Try to think of any miscellaneous costs that you may have such as toll roads or baggage fees.

Budgeting Fuel Costs

• Put together all of the driving trips you plan to take to get a total traveling distance.

• For example, if you’re going to Kansas, you plan to drive a total of about 200 miles (320 km), and your rental car gets about 20 miles (32 km) per gallon of fuel, then you’ll need to purchase a total of about 10 gallons (38 L) of fuel in order to get around.

• For instance, if you need about 10 gallons (38 L) of fuel to travel around and the cost of fuel is about $3.00 per gallon, then you’ll need to spend about $30.00 on fuel.

Tip: If you’re traveling for business or you plan to be reimbursed for your expenses, keep your receipts so you can be reimbursed and calculate your mileage for tax purposes.

Help and tools, how to calculate trip fuel cost, plus a miles to money calculator., miles to money calculator.

Once you've used the Trip Fuel Cost Calculator to calculate your gas cost per distance unit, you can then use the following calculator to convert miles or kilometers into gas money and total driving costs (per the IRS business per-mile deduction).

How to Calculate Trip Fuel Cost

The basic formula for calculating trip fuel costs is as follows:

However, the method for solving the trip fuel cost formula depends on which fuel economy rating method you use. I will cover 4 of the most common methods below.

Miles Per Gallon Method

Liters per 100 kilometers method, liters per mile method, kilometers per liter method.

If you would like me to add a different fuel economy method, please let me know using expandable feedback from below the road trip fuel cost calculator.

Adjust Calculator Width:

Move the slider to left and right to adjust the calculator width. Note that the Help and Tools panel will be hidden when the calculator is too wide to fit both on the screen. Moving the slider to the left will bring the instructions and tools panel back into view.

Also note that some calculators will reformat to accommodate the screen size as you make the calculator wider or narrower. If the calculator is narrow, columns of entry rows will be converted to a vertical entry form, whereas a wider calculator will display columns of entry rows, and the entry fields will be smaller in size ... since they will not need to be "thumb friendly".

Show/Hide Popup Keypads:

Select Show or Hide to show or hide the popup keypad icons located next to numeric entry fields. These are generally only needed for mobile devices that don't have decimal points in their numeric keypads. So if you are on a desktop, you may find the calculator to be more user-friendly and less cluttered without them.

Stick/Unstick Tools:

Select Stick or Unstick to stick or unstick the help and tools panel. Selecting "Stick" will keep the panel in view while scrolling the calculator vertically. If you find that annoying, select "Unstick" to keep the panel in a stationary position.

If the tools panel becomes "Unstuck" on its own, try clicking "Unstick" and then "Stick" to re-stick the panel.

Fuel Consumption Calculator ⛽

Use this fuel calculator to easily calculate the fuel consumption of a vehicle: car, bus, truck, etc. in liters per 100km, kilometers per liter, price per km travelled, etc.

Related calculators

• Fuel consumption formula
• Different ways to calculate fuel economy
• How to achieve better fuel efficiency?

    Fuel consumption formula

The formula for calculating fuel consumption used in this online fuel consumption calculator is:

Fuel consumption = Fuel used / Distance travelled

The result depends on the metrics used as input: miles per gallon if the input was in miles and gallons, and km per liter if the input was in kilometers and liters.

Additionally, the fuel consumption calculator will output the fuel cost per mile or fuel cost per km , depending on the metric units selected, as well as miles per $ / km per $. These are very useful when estimating your fuel costs and can help you predict your expenses easier on a future trip. For example, if you notice that your usually spend $0.15 per mile (15 cents per mile), then if you know you will be travelling for 200 miles, you can calculate the cost of the trip by multiplying 200mi x $0.15 = $30 for a 200 mile trip. Similarly, for km.

    Different ways to calculate fuel economy

Fuel efficiency , or fuel economy, can be a tricky concept. Understanding that is key for the correct interpretation and comparison of gas consumption estimates such as those produced by this calculator.

For example, say you want to compare two types of cars: A and B. You put two researches, one American and one French, to the task, with the first using kilometers per liter as an efficiency metric, while the second using liters per km. You have each researcher record the efficiency of 2 cars of each type, or, alternatively, the consumption of one and the same car in two different environments (the data available is the same for both), and the results recorded by them look like so:

Data for car type A:

Data for car type B:

Average above means the arithmetic mean . The US engineer will see that for type A the average is 2.5 while for type B it is just 2.0, concluding that type A is more efficient than type B as it can cover a greater distance with a liter of diesel, petrol, gas, etc. The French will see that for type A the average is 0.625 while for type B it is 0.5 and will conclude that type B is more efficient than type A, as the car will use less fuel to cover the same distance. The two researchers would come to different conclusions as they are using different metrics!

But who is right in the above example? The fuel consumption calculation is correct in both cases. The issue is what we care about when we calculate fuel consumption and fuel efficiency / fuel usage. Most people would argue that we care about how much fuel we would need to cover a given distance . In such a case the French researcher is correct as the average is misleading the US researcher. Here is an explanation why: if you take both cars of type A and want to cover 100 kilometers with each of them, you would need not 200 / 2.5 = 80 liters, but 125 liters of petrol (100 liters for the first car and 25 liters for the second). The French will get it right by multiplying 200 x 0.625 = 125. For type B both researchers will correctly estimate that 100 liters will be required for the same task. Therefore, type B is more efficient than type A.

However, if you define efficiency as covering the greatest distance given a certain fuel amount , then the US researcher would be correct. If we give each car of type A a liter of fuel, they will cover 5 kilometers combined while giving each car of type B a liter of fuel, they will cover only 4 km combined. It follows that type A is more efficient than type B using this definition. Note that the km/l average is not misleading here, as it is 2.5 km/l, and 2 x 2.5 = 5, which is correct.

The above is an illustration of why when using our fuel consumption calculator or similar tools it is important to keep track of the end goal and define the question at hand precisely before measuring and making conclusions. It is also a lesson on applying appropriate data transformations. The arithmetic average is not invariant to monotonic transformations which becomes an issue when averaging the performance of two or more vehicles or when averaging the performance of a single vehicle in different situations . For example, highway fuel consumption and city drive consumption could be used in place of Car 1 and Car 2 in the example table above and produce the same result.

The car example uses as a basis one from Hand D. (1994) "Deconstructing Statistical Questions", Journal of the Royal Statistical Society , Series A, Vol.157-3:317-356. Fuel consumption calculations are performed using this online calculator.

    How to achieve better fuel efficiency?

In brief, the best way to achieve better fuel economy is to:

• Keep your car and tyres well-maintained
• Avoid frequent acceleration and deceleration
• Drive at a lower overall average speed
• Avoid or reduce the use of air conditioning
• Reduce the weight of the vehicle by not carrying excess cargo

All of the above would reduce the amount of fuel consumed per unit of distance covered. For more in-depth advice, check out our list of ways to improve your fuel economy .

Driving Calculator

Quick links, driving calculator.

Travelmath provides driving information to help you plan a road trip. You can measure the driving distance between two cities based on actual turn-by-turn directions. Or figure out the driving time to see if you need to stop overnight at a hotel or if you can drive straight through. To stay within your budget, make sure you calculate the cost of driving based on your car's gas mileage. If you're meeting a friend in the middle, you can find the halfway point between cities. If you're driving cross-country, find the best stopping points for your road trip.

You can look for cities near any location including airports, landmarks, and other cities. If you have a particular distance or travel time, you can search for cities within a radius .
