Claim:
A travel guidance system comprising: a controller configured to: set a route from a departure point toward destination, the route ending at an ending positional coordinate prior to the destination; acquire a position of a movable body moving along the route; and determine whether the movable body will be considered to have arrived at the destination based on the acquired position of the movable body by: acquiring a distance from the ending positional coordinate to the destination; when the acquired distance is less than a predetermined distance, determining based on the ending positional coordinate whether the movable body has arrived at the destination; when the acquired distance is equal to or more than the predetermined distance and the destination is a specific point, determining based on the ending positional coordinate whether the movable body has arrived at the destination, wherein the destination is considered to be a specific point when the movable body will be able to navigate from the ending positional coordinate to the destination without any guidance being provided from the ending positional coordinate to the destination; and when the acquired distance is equal to or more than the predetermined distance and the destination is not a specific point, determining based on a position of the destination whether the movable body has arrived at the destination.
