Add option or link to web informations on Google Maps

Hi guys,

 

On Google Maps, when we look for a place, we have the address, the phone number, the website, the opening hours and so on...

I would find it very usefull to add a link or an option to find more detail informations about the place (like the informations given on Google Trips or wikipedia). It would be even better to have an option or link to audioguides.

 

What do you think?

 

See you around

An easy way to get more information about a place without blasting users in the face too much is allways a good idea!

Well I think their must be some provision to link Google local guides travel stories shared by them on Google maps for others reference.

For example once a person selects source and destination, he can be prompted for viewing a local guides post on this route if they are interested which may cover details of travel directions or stay options or key knowhow of the route,  transport, help resources on the route, vehicle type etc. which can help them prepare for journey and make it memorable. But with an option to ignore the same with one click if they don't want to have that support.

Thank you for reaching out, similar idea about adding additional information of places on Google Maps and I will merge it there.

Hi @Julien44,

 

Thanks for sharing!

 

However, we did not manage to implement it in time and according to our Idea Exchange policies, as for the moment, we are going to need to close your idea.
