Travelling is an escape that almost everyone wants to indulge in recent times. But, one thing that often prevents people from finalizing their plans is the cost and the planning that go into forming an itinerary.
That’s where travel apps come in. They are convenient and streamline many of the struggles that you might face otherwise.
However, with so many different travel applications available online, we knew we had to shortlist our top five picks to make your life a lot less complicated.
When it comes to travelling, the biggest roadblock that everyone experiences is accommodation. Which place should you book? Is it secure? Does it have a good rating? Is it affordable? A lot of questions are bound to come to your mind but cozycozy vacation rentals are here to simplify that process for you. From finding you the most reliable to the most affordable places, this travel app deserves a top mention in the list.
Google products speak for themselves and Google Travel is no different. This free travel app allows you to sort out all your travel plans using a single app. No longer will you have to worry about downloading multiple and separate apps to check the price of the flights, book your hotels, find good sightseeing spots, etc. Using Google Travel, you get to streamline all of that and more with a few simple clicks.
Besides accommodation, one important aspect when it comes to planning your travel is the flights. It is a different thing if you are travelling via trains but if you are flying out to your travel destination, Hopper is an app that doesn’t disappoint. This is a mobile application, compatible with both Android and iOS that enables you to track the price of the flights. When you get to track the flight costs in real time, it enables you to make the right decision before purchasing the tickets. The best part is that the app notifies you when the flight’s price drops significantly, so you can take that opportunity and avail the best deals.
This travel app is specifically for people who are consistently on road trips instead of flying or taking a train. If you want to make your entire trip worthwhile, especially during the pit stops on your road trip, this app helps you navigate through the best routes on the road. You can find underrated spots to explore, unique and picturesque roads to travel down, and also get a glimpse through the entire route that you are headed towards. The app has a premium version called the “Roadtrippers Plus” account, which costs $29.99 per month.

In , the grape capital of India and host of the Simhastha Kumbh Mela every 12 years, environmental concerns over a plan to cut 1,800 trees for the proposed Sadhugram project in the historic Tapovan area have sharpened political fault lines ahead of local body elections. The issue has pitted both Sena factions against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which leads the ruling Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra. While Eknath Shinde, Deputy Chief Minister and Shiv Sena chief, and Uddhav Thackeray, chief of the Shiv Sena (UBT), remain political rivals, their parties have found rare common ground in Tapovan, where authorities propose clearing trees across 34 acres to build Sadhugram and a MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) hub, as part of a ₹300-crore infrastructure push linked to the pilgrimage.
