MY FAVORITE TRAVEL APPS
Wednesday, November 18, 2015Smartphone 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
