An example method includes determining journey parameters having an origin location, a destination location, and a time of departure; determining paths based on the journey parameters, each of the paths including any combination of route-based options, non-route-based options, or walking options; determining arrival times of the paths relative to the destination location; and identifying a set of solutions for the paths based on the arrival times using an iterative analysis.
