Zusammenfassung:Various embodiments can provide helpful information to a user who is looking for a particular point of interest. In at least some embodiments, first and second searches are conducted. The first search uses a local search provider and produces results which describe one or more points of interest relative to a location, such as a user's current location. Each point of interest can be associated with a destination location to which the user would like to travel. The second search uses a so-called transit route provider and utilizes the results of the first search to plan a transit route between the location and one or more of the respective destination locations.
