If you’d rather not bother with dragging
a hefty laptop or a meaty tablet around on your vacation, you’ll probably be
more than happy with your favourite Smartphone instead. This fantastic device
is not only an excellent way to keep in touch with your nearest and dearest
whilst out and about on your travels, but can also offer you a myriad of cool
travel and accommodation options before you’ve even landed on the tarmac. We
have reviewed 3 essential Android travel apps that will certainly be worth a
place in your list of packing items, so please take a few minutes to peruse
these goodies and you may be able to download them in tome for your next
overseas or domestic jaunt.
Undoubtedly one of the most popular and
useful trip planning websites ever, TripAdvisor is now available on your
Android Smartphone, and we are eternally grateful! It offers some fantastic
deals on flights and accommodation, plus restaurants and local attractions are
all here in abundance. The real beauty of TripAdvisor is the plethora of real
live user reviews that tell you exactly what is going on behind the closed
doors and glossy reviews of these places. With over 45
million reviews and some awesome photos, TripAdvisor is one of the best travel
applications that we’ve ever seen. And you can add your own thoughts to the
travel website once you’ve sampled the delights for yourself. The travel forums
are also a very cool way of finding out local information exactly when you need
it. The ‘Near Me Now’ feature is also tailor made for Smartphone travellers and
the GPS option allows you to discover any cool restaurants or bars in your
immediate vicinity.
One of the biggest issues when visiting
these far flung shores that offer so much in the way of relaxation and fun, is
getting to grips with the local language. So how about an Android App that can
bridge that considerable gap with a nice big smile? You can type in the phrase
that you want to say, and the application will read it out in the target
language on your behalf. The available languages are Spanish, French, German,
Italian, Chinese, and Japanese. The developers are promising more languages to
be added at a later date. You can also send the translated phrases via text and
email, so this is perfect for those foreign language enquiries as well. We
would recommend this speech-to-speech translation system for any world
travellers that want to get to learn about their host country a little more.
