Popular destination cost guides
Jump straight into pre-filled destination pages when you already know where the trip might happen.
Free travel tools
Free tools that actually help your trip move forward.
Each tool answers a question groups hit before booking: how much the trip will cost, who pays what, what needs packing, and who is handling which job.
Fast answers in under a minuteNo signup requiredBuilt for group trips first
Packing list generator
Build a destination-aware list with season, trip style, group size, and special-needs prompts baked in.
Trip budget calculator
Estimate the full trip number first, then see the per-person picture before anyone starts booking.
Destination cost calculator
Get a destination-specific spend model for stay, transport, food, activities, and local tradeoffs.
Trip expense split calculator
Enter who paid for each shared cost and who it covered, then copy the settle-up into the group chat.
Bachelorette cost per person
Add the shared costs, set the headcount, and see what each guest pays, including the bride’s covered share.
Group planning template
Capture deadlines, owners, fallback options, and check-ins so the trip does not run on vague group-chat promises.
Use the tools in this order if your group is still figuring things out.
First get a realistic destination cost range. Then turn that into a trip budget your group can agree on. After that, lock expense rules and responsibilities. Finish with a packing list once the travel style is clear.
- Estimate the destination so everyone aligns on what the trip actually costs.
- Convert that number into a budget range the group can commit to.
- Define split rules before payments become messy.
- Use the planning template to assign owners and deadlines.
- Generate a destination-aware packing list once the trip is real.

Reuse the same generator with presets for specific contexts instead of starting from a blank page every time.
Common questions about the free travel tools
What is free, what needs an account, where payment settlement happens, and when the app is the better next step.
Which NomadCrew travel tools are free?
All six tools on this page are free: the destination cost calculator, trip budget calculator, trip expense split calculator, packing list generator, bachelorette cost-per-person calculator, and group trip planning template.
Do I need a NomadCrew account to use the free tools?
No. You can use the calculators, generator, and planning template without creating an account or joining a waitlist.
Does the expense splitter send or settle payments?
No. It calculates who owes whom, but it does not hold, transfer, or settle money. Your group must complete settlement through a bank transfer, payment app, cash, or another external service.
Are the calculator results exact quotes?
No. They are planning estimates based on the details you enter. Check live prices, exchange rates, booking terms, and provider fees before anyone commits money.
What should we use after the free tools?
If your group needs one ongoing place for trip to-dos, chat, expenses, live location and the day-by-day plan, the NomadCrew app is the next step. The iPhone app is available through the App Store, while Android access is currently limited to closed testing.
