A route guidance system for vehicles is adapted to carry out route guidance based on stored data relating to a route from a start position to a destination. The route guidance is based on a detected present position of the vehicle and on the stored data relating to the route to the destination. The distance between the present position of the vehicle and the destination is detected and if the distance is not greater than a predetermined value it is judged that the vehicle is approaching the destination. The route guidance is terminated in response to the distance not greater than the predetermined value, and the route guidance is again started after being terminated responsive to an instruction from a restart directing means if it is not detected that a distance between the present position of the vehicle and the destination is not greater than the predetermined value.
