With our mobile phones as our constant companions, travel apps have become our essential tools. There are apps for booking flights, booking accommodation, researching a destination, language camera translations, restaurant reviews, travel budgeting and currency converters.
We can even tap into apps that provide us with real time information such as flight tracking apps, local maps, and public transport apps to name just a few. Some airlines have apps that can even advise you of last minute gate changes at the airport. On one particular flight I was advised of the gate change at least ten minutes before the check in team at the old gate had announced it. This information saved me from a last minute heart pounding dash half way around the terminal.
If you want to book a tour or an activity in a location there are local experience apps that list all the tours and activities in your chosen area. Not only do they offer tours and activities you can book airport and city transfers and arrange for e-sims or sim cards to keep in contact with loved ones and to update your social media.
If you are wanting to feel more secure when you travel there are apps for emergency numbers for each country and where to find your local embassy etc.
My Favourite App of all time – GPSMyCity
Now if you want to explore a local city or town there is an app called GPSMyCity. This is one of my favourite apps of all times. Why?
I can download city guides and maps for offline use saving my mobile data, unreliable WiFi and not having to carry a heavy guidebook around with me.
GPSMyCity has thousands of self-guided tours and travel articles in over 1500 locations.
As I arrive at a new location I check out their self-guided walking tours and travel articles, download the article for my offline use and off I head – my own personal travel guide.
I now have access to local sights, restaurants, hidden gems and historical walking routes which I can enjoy at my own pace.
For a small fee you can access its GPS navigation, this is such a cool feature and it has saved me from getting lost many times.
This is one invaluable tool in my toolkit of travel apps.
