CityMapper

City Mapper is one of those must-have travel apps when it comes to planning your next city break. With an ever-growing list of destinations using it, this handy app will help you get around a new city like a pro.

It works a little bit like Google Maps, showing you directions for how to get from A to B. However, the great thing about Citymapper is that its linked to local transport options so it will show you how to get to your destination by the local bus, tram or train, including where to catch them from and how long it will take.

Skyscanner

Hands up- who spends their free time searching flights from your hometown to ‘everywhere’ on Skyscanner? We do! Skyscanner is a flight comparison website and it is essential when it comes to scouring the best deals on flights.

Unlike a lot of other comparison websites, Skyscanner lets you search on a whole month basis so you can easily see which dates are the cheapest to fly on. What’s more, you don’t have to select an end destination so you can see which places are the cheapest for you to fly to – great for booking a spontaneous trip.

Zomato

If you’re a bit of a foodie then this is one of those travel apps that you really need. Zomato is available in 22 countries and it provides photos of the menus and reviews for most restaurants and cafes. What’s more, the app lets you add places that you like the look of to your bookmark, so you don’t have to waste time wandering around looking for somewhere to eat when you are hungry.

Well with XE Currency Converter, you can stay on top of your spending while you’re away. This useful app provides quick currency rates and it works offline, so it doesn’t matter if you don’t have data.

The Culture Trip App

The app is so useful when it comes to discovering experiences, hotels or restaurants, as well as staying up to date with festivals and events that are happening on a week by week basis.
