I've managed to get the circle for the 'Destination Adres' (black circles) and the line (which shows the distance in meters once you hover over it) but I can't figure out a way to show the Origin Adres (I've drawn 3 white circles to show what I'm looking for). On the right you can see the Destination Adres once you hover over a black circle. I wish to achieve the same thing for the Origin Adres (white circle). See screenshot below:

 

I am trying to draw a path/route between two coordinates (lat/lon) while displaying the origin as well as the destination circles on a map. 

I hope someone can help me achieve this because it feels like I've tried everything and I can't find the solution anywhere online. Appreciate it!

    Hi Igor,

    We can take advantage of the new capabilities/functionality in Tableau 2020.4 for mapping. You've got a great set of data and you've already used MAKEPOINT(). Simply use Latitude (Generated) and Longitude (Generated) only on Rows and Columns, respectively. We don't need to use Dual-Axis anymore...simply drag over Origin Point (or Destination Point) and you'll see a new drop point light up in the upper left corner of the map. Drop that point on there. It creates a new level in the Marks Card and labels it appropriately. Now, you have an independent mark on the map that can be customized separately from all other marks/lines/points on the map! When you finish you should have something like this:
