Whether it’s touring the canals of
Venice
, swimming with the seals in the
Galapagos
or climbing the
Burj Khalifa
in Dubai, Street View has taken you to some of the most beautiful and exciting places around the world. Now, in addition to scoping out your destination, Street View can help you cut down the stress of traveling by giving you a preview of your journey, too. Our first efforts to map global transit locations include 16 international airports, over 50 train and subway stations, and even a cable car station in Hong Kong.
Here’s an
interactive map
so you can see the new Street View transit locations worldwide.
Now you can visit the check-in counter of your airline in Madrid, map out the way from baggage claim to the bus at Tokyo International Airport and check out where to pick up your rental car at Eindhoven Airport; you can even scope out your seat on an Emirates flight from Dubai! Or, if you’re planning to take the train, navigate through Waterloo station so you can be one step ahead, whether you’re with a group of friends, family or a baby stroller.
Check in at Madrid Barajas, ES
Arrivals, Tokyo International Airport, JP
Eindhoven Airport, NL
Emirates A380 at Dubai Airport
Waterloo Station, London, UK
Don’t let travel logistics get you down this holiday season. With Street View, you can see how to get where you’re going faster and easier. Enjoy and safe travels!
