What does it feel like traveling? One would say it is the best feeling, one may have certainly fallen in love with traveling, and there is absolutely no one who would reject a chance to travel or has ever regretted it. So yes, we all love traveling, and we are so happy the bad days are gone, and we can take a deep breath somewhere in the mountains or on the beach. 

Less romance and more data. The tourism industry struggled a lot during the past two years. To understand the scales of the downfall caused by the pandemic, let’s check out some numbers.

  • The global tourism market lost over $2,4 billion in 2020 amid the global lockdown. 
  • In 2021 the international arrivals increased by 4% compared to the pre-pandemic period, but there were still 1 billion fewer arrivals.
  • Even by 2024, the global tourism market may not reach its numbers before the pandemic.
  • World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) experts predict better prospects for 2022.

The good thing is we are getting back to airports to experience all the happy feelings. Hope you are already planning your next trip and it is going to be so special and so expected. To help you plan it in detail and spend every minute of your travel unforgettable, we have put together a list of 8 travel planning apps to be in your pocket whenever you need it. 

A proper trip planner can save from a rushed and stressful journey: 

Want the cheapest ticket at the last moment? Easy! The best-suited hotel or an apartment, maybe a castle? Again, no problem.

With trip organizer apps, it’s an easy task to find the best locations, book the perfect room, pack smart, find the tastiest restaurant around, optimize your journey, based on the trip duration, and more.

Wanderlog is a free trip planning app and website where travelers can build, organize, and map their trip plans. It’s not your ordinary trip planner – its UI makes it easy (and fun!) to use, it’s incredibly flexible, and it provides all the information you need in one place.

For each place added to your trip, Wanderlog automatically pulls up a picture and a brief description, as well as a pin on your trip map, making it easier than ever to visualize your plans. When you click on a place, view key information from Google like how long people typically spend there, contact info, and user ratings, as well as links to trusted review sites (e.g., Tripadvisor). You can make general lists of ‘places to visit’ or a detailed itinerary where you can see how long it takes to get between places. For additional flexibility, add your own freeform notes wherever you want, add unlimited stops, collaborate with friends in real-time, and export your places to Google Maps when you want to navigate.

Is it real to fully organise a trip so that I even know which taxi will take me to the hotel, how much it will cost and all that? I’m on a small budget and I wouldn’t want to get caught out in another country.

Thank you for sharing this. In turn, I would like to share the website where I hire cars for young drivers under 25 in the UK. The website https://rental24.co.uk/uk/underage/under-25 is very easy to use and has many offers for young drivers. Therefore, I advise you to book a comfortable car for your next trip through it
