MY FAVORITE TRAVEL APPS

Wednesday, November 18, 2015

Smartphones are a traveling necessity unless of course you are going commando in the jungle.  I prefer to be well connected when I travel.  There are so many apps available for both iPhones and Androids that you can have tons of information at your fingertips.

Smartphone apps for travelers can save your bacon in a pinch.  They can help you find your way, get a rental car, a hotel room or find a great restaurant.  They even have apps that will convert currency and translate a foreign language.

Here are some of my favorites:

Fodor's City Guide App

Forget dragging along guidebooks - this great 
city guide app is your answer.  Recommendations,
booking capability and maps.  Perfect for multi-city
trips.

easy reference.

Tripadvisor

This is one of my go-to travel sites.                                          
I like the way that it is organized, it is easy to                                 
navigate, and the reviews are easy to read.     
So happy to have it in an app that I can take 
everywhere with me.

As a foodie, yelp is by far my favorite app.

makes it easy to find favorite restaurants and 
businesses.
