Everyone enjoys a good vacation, but that can easily turn hazardous if you get lose your way, pick out a bad restaurant or don’t properly plan. This is especially true for those of us who go on a vacation internationally.
Luckily for us, there are a ton of travel apps out there designed to make planning these vacations easier. Here is a list of the most essential of such apps. So without further wait, check out the best travel apps:
Tripit
Tripit is a must-have travel app for anyone looking to keep their trip plans organised in a single and easy-to-maintain space. You can download the app on both Apple and Google play store. You simply forward all of your confirmation emails to [email protected] of flights, hotels, etc. and the app automatically compiles a detailed outline of your trip. You will also have access to handy features such as detailed maps of your destinations, and you can even access your trip plans without wi fi using offline maps. To put your trip together in a simple way, Tripit is a must have.
FoodSpotting
No travel guide is complete without mouth-watering food. For this purpose we recommend FoodSpotting; an app that combines the best of both Foursquare and Instagram. You take pictures of your dishes and upload them to the app complete with a review and the restaurant you ate at. You can then see reviews from anywhere; just by searching for the type of food you want. FoodSpotting is different from other food guides out there because it focuses on particular dishes rather than restaurants as a whole. So rather than searching for Chinese restaurants, you would instead look for the best General Tso’s chicken. This traveling app is specifically for those who are traveling abroad with an appetite.
HostelWorld
For those of you who are a serious case of wanderlust, HostelWorld is the app for you. Collaborating with over 35,000 locations around the world, HostelWorld gives you the power to do hotel bookings at a moment’s notice. The app doesn’t burden you with hidden costs or fees. You can also access your account to get reminders about reservations, as well as view hostel locations on an interactive map. The chronic traveller definitely needs this one. It is available on both Apple and Google Play Store.
Packing Pro
Packing Pro is a great planner app available on Apple App Store for anyone who is a packing perfectionist. It is also great for people who often forget things when they are packing (mostly due to last minute packing). Packing Pro allows you to create detailed lists to-follow while you pack. It’s more than just a list, though, Packing Pro allows you to add in images, reminders, and even a Need-To-Buy list. You can also email your packing lists to other people (for you micro-managers out there) as well as print them off through the app. Don’t let yourself (or anyone else for that matter) forget something on a trip again with this handy travel companion.
TripAdvisor
TripAdvisor is great for those of you who are looking for an app that can do it all. It is available on Apple App Store, Google Play and Windows Apps. Find and book hotels, make restaurant reservations, and talk to an enthusiastic community who loves to travel. TripAdvisor does all of this and so much more. By using TripAdvisor, you can search for anything near your location, upload photos and share your own experiences, and even download maps of locations to use offline. TripAdvisor isn’t just recommended for travel enthusiasts; it is the standard for them
