ExplorersMap MCP
Tell your AI assistant where you've been, and your travel map fills in. It connects your own ExplorersMap account to Claude, Cursor or any MCP client, with 18 tools for marking countries, regions and places and building trips.
https://explorersmap.net/mcpThings you can say
- “I was in Portugal and Spain in May. Add both, and make it a trip called Iberia.”
- “Mark the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower and Versailles as visited.”
- “Which French départements have I not been to yet?”
- “How many countries have I visited, and where do I rank?”
Set it up in two steps
- Get a token. Sign in, open Account settings and press Generate a token. It's shown once, so copy it straight away.
- Add ExplorersMap to your client. Pick yours and replace
YOUR_TOKEN.
Run this once in your terminal.

Free, with a fair-use limit
Every account gets 25 changes and 500 lookups a day, which covers a real trip's worth of marking. Pathfinder members have no limit.
Your account only
A token can read and change your own map and nothing else. We store a hash of it, not the token itself, and you can revoke it in Account settings at any time.
Technical details
