Traceroute is a Python script that allows you to get traceroute results with associated geolocation information for each hop for a specified host from geographically distant source(s). Demo: IP Address Lookup (under "Visual Traceroute" tab)
Save traceroute.py into a directory with its path stored in your PYTHONPATH environment variable.
Try the following from your Python interpreter:
>>> from traceroute import Traceroute
>>> traceroute = Traceroute(ip_address='8.8.8.8')
>>> hops = traceroute.traceroute()
>>> hops

You can also run the script directly by passing in the --ip_address option:
$ python traceroute.py --help
Usage: traceroute.py --ip_address=IP_ADDRESS
Options:
--version show program's version number and exit
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-i IP_ADDRESS, --ip_address=IP_ADDRESS
IP address of destination host (default: 8.8.8.8)
-c COUNTRY, --country=COUNTRY
Traceroute will be initiated from this country; choose
'US' for United States, 'CH' for Switzerland, 'JP' for
Japan or 'LO' for localhost to run traceroute locally
(default: US)
-t TMP_DIR, --tmp_dir=TMP_DIR
Temporary directory to store downloaded traceroute
results (default: /tmp)
-n, --no_geo No geolocation data (default: False)
-s TIMEOUT, --timeout=TIMEOUT
Timeout in seconds for all downloads (default: 120)
-d, --debug Show debug output (default: False)
$ python traceroute.py --ip_address=8.8.8.8
