A map-display-based, computer-implemented approach is provided for providing directions to a user to assist the user in reaching a destination. The approach includes, for instance, collecting at a map display user input data, where the user input data includes the user's destination. In addition, the approach includes generating, by a directions generating facility associated with the map display, directions for the user to use in navigating from a current location to the user's destination, and downloading the directions generated by the directions generating facility to a mobile device of the user to assist the user in reaching the desired destination after leaving the map display. The downloading of directions to the user's mobile device may include downloading the directions in at least one of text data format or voice data format.
