Planning a travel trip is a tedious job but we all love to
do it as you know that as a result of our planning and efforts we will have a
beautiful travel experience. However, smart people always find out some way to
make the tedious job easy. Thankfully, the current digital world has many
helpful apps to assist you in travel planning.
Usually, when you search in the web for good travel planning
apps, then you are most likely to get bombarded with apps that will help you in
finding good deals in hotels, flights, etc. In the real sense these are not ‘Travel App’ for planning,
rather, these are ‘Travel App’
for booking. This blog won’t talk about such travel booking app rather, it will
talk about travel planning app. Apps that are helpful in showing up your flight
details help you in tracking the flight connection, dig out the rental car or
hotel confirmation number and all types of minute details that you require while
traveling.
Tripit
It is quite a popular app that needs no introduction. It is
not an app to suggest you destination or the ways to spend time in the town you
are visiting. Rather it helps you in keeping note of your itineraries, travel
confirmations, hotel bookings, tickets, rental car reservations, etc. over one
common platform in a complete
hassle-free way.
While traveling, it is necessary to have such an app at your
disposal if you want to avoid fishing here and there to get that ticket
confirmation email, reservation number, flight number, etc. The app is
incredibly handy and has many other imperative features. For instance, it sends
you an alert if a better seat on your booked flight gets available so that you
can switch.
Using the app, you can also conveniently share your travel
plan with others. For instance, you can share details if you are moving abroad
for one month and out of concern your parents wish to have the complete details
of your traveling. No need to explain the things and give them the details
separately, simply share the Tripit custom built itinerary with them. The app
is available for Android, iOS, and other platforms.
TouristEye
It is a very interesting and unique app, which is neither
for getting the best deals nor to keep a note of ticket details. The app lets
you create a wish-list of the place you want to visit and the things you wish
to do. It’s not that you must have a dream vacation to prepare a wish-list.
Even if you are visiting a commonplace or going for a small vacation, then also
the app will be handy to you.
Let’s make it simple!
Don’t you seek other’s advice before going to a place, like how will be
the weather there, which is the good place to stay, what activities to do
there, etc. We all look for such information before setting out for travel. This
app helps you in getting such information conveniently and also ensures that
you will get more specific and reliable information.
So the idea is to create travel wish list and share it with
compatriots using the app. Other users will advise you based on their
experiences. Finally, when you get on the roads for the trip, you can refer to
those plans to get the detailed information, maps, links and much more.
TripCase
It is another app that helps you in having a centralized
access to all of your travel documentation related to flights, hotels, rental
cars, etc. It operates as one common platform over which you can get all your
travel related information, like flight number, flight details, rental car
booking number, etc.
That’s not all; the app has something more to offer. Using
the app you can send all your booking confirmations directly to the respective
vendors and get the things automatically organized for you. The app has a
timeline-based "itinerary" view, over which you get a step-by-step
itinerary of your complete trip along with the time details. There is an
"action" view also through which you can get more detailed
information like flight alerts and other notifications.
TripAdvisor
Is there anyone who has not heard of TripAdvisor? Its web version is one of the
most quintessential travel planning services all across the world. The mobile
app increases the usability of the service even more over smartphones.
The app helps you in plotting your trip by providing you the
most required advices.
The app lets you learn about various travel destinations,
places, and hotels through other traveler’s personal experiences. Through these
travelers’ experiences, you can get help in realizing about which is a better
place to go or how to go to that place or where to stay there or what
activities to do, etc.
Apart from travelers’ shared experiences, the app also
publishes its reviews, ratings, photos and other necessary information on
hotels, destinations, etc.
WorldMate
It is an app for businessmen and frequent travelers.
However, you will still find the app handy even if you are an occasional
traveler. It is again an app to keep track of your reservations and itineraries.
The app lets you add other destinations, meetings, appointments and events that
you need to attend during your trip. Before setting out for your tour, you just
need to feed all your details in the apps and all information will be available
to you at one view. You will get alerts for your meetings; you can share your
plans through LinkedIn, and there are lot more features to support your
traveling.
Aforementioned is a list of interesting travel apps. Each app is
distinct from each other and has their set of advantages. All these apps are
accessible through iOS and Android app store.
