Travel is no longer a luxury nowadays; you may travel for work or leisure. Make your planning much easier by downloading these apps to your mobile gadget before you leave. When you are in your destination, just connect to the Internet and use these apps to your advantage.
This app works like a travel secretary and organizer. Just forward the confirmation emails from any travel service provider-car rental, flight, hotel and restaurant bookings-to an email address. TripIt will transform these emails into a master itinerary. Access the itinerary anywhere, online or offline.
There is that one time when you are lost in some country somewhere and the people around you can't speak English. Just open your Google Maps and GPS feature. The app will show you your distance from your travel destination. Don't have access to the Internet while you're on vacation? No worries. You can download the map area for offline viewing later.
Food is one of the reasons people travel. Reserving for a place in a food place recommended by a fellow foodie is easy with OpenTable. Look for restaurants that are near your location. Just navigate through the available establishments, select the date, time and number of people for reservations. Once you receive your confirmation, you are good to go.
Agoda is a quick and easy way to book your accommodations. The app will show you discounted prices of over 117,500 hotels worldwide. Search for a hotel in your destination. You will see a breakdown of all the available hotels. Pick one that suits your taste and budget.
Avoid long queues for taxi rides. Grab allows you to search for nearby cabs anywhere. Just book a taxi using your mobile phone. Once a cab driver confirms, all you have to do is wait for the ride to arrive.
