The system includes a navigation board with a surface comprising a symbol at a position of an RFID tag representing a geographical destination. The system includes a vehicle key comprising an RFID tag reader adapted for a wireless reading of an identifier value of the RFID tag if the vehicle key is in proximity of the RFID tag. The vehicle key can store and memorize the RFID tag identifier value. The system includes a vehicle navigation system including a receiver for receiving the identifier value stored in the vehicle key if the vehicle key is in an activation mode for the vehicle such that the vehicle navigation system is programmed with the geographical destination represented by the at least one RFID tag of the navigation board.
