Going on holiday is always exciting! Visiting a new place and seeing the sights is why many of us book trips abroad every year.
Best Travel-Planning Apps
What can be less exciting is planning said trips. Booking, price-checking, and planning out each day can be tedious, bordering on frustrating.

To help, we've collated some of the very best travel-planning apps around, so you can plan and execute the perfect vacation itinerary! So, who's ready to become their own travel agent? Read on, and fulfill your destiny!
TripIt
TripIt is one of the world's most popular itinerary-creating apps for good reason. Compiling flight details, hotel reservations, car rentals, and activities into one handy place, it'll help make the most of your trip away. You can also sync the app with your Gmail, Hotmail, or iCloud to import any bookings, letting you see everything offline - perfect for unexpected signal loss while roaming. You can even upgrade to TripIt Pro to get real-time flight tracking and alternative routes should your plane, train, or automobile be sidelined.
Roadtrippers
Roadtrippers are for those of you brave enough to brave the asphalt on your road trip. They'll help you map out your routes, make changes on the fly should roads be unexpectedly closed, see local sights on your trip, and even discover nearby hotels and campsites for you rough sleepers. Where Roadtrippers differ from the norm is their desire to show you places off the beaten path, often recommending places tourists rarely tread. Perfect for some unique social media snaps. Plus, you can even create a cost estimate for your entire trip, including fuel, so you can budget the whole trip before you even leave the house.
Go City
Go City may be known more for its city passes, which offer you the chance to see a city's best bits for one low price. But they're also dipping their toes in the trip planning itinerary game. Now, you don't just plan which attractions you'll see on the app, but you can also plan your trip. So, if you're heading to a landmark-heavy city like the Big Apple, pick up a New York city pass, go see the likes of the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building, and plan your travel in and around the city so you can see it all - all on the app, which is pretty handy.
Wanderlog
Wanderlog spreads the love, thanks to its unique spin on itinerary planning. What's better than making the plan one person's responsibility? Why, making it everyone's responsibility, of course! With Wanderlog, you can create a collaborative travel itinerary and share it among your friends, families, or strangers if you're so inclined. That means anyone with a link can edit your itinerary, leave suggestions in the built-in chat feature, and generally take the load off a single ringleader. Also, doing stuff together is just more fun, isn't it?
KAYAK
KAYAK is your one-stop shop for all things getaway. Their search engine lets you find the perfect place for your trip, compare prices, and get the best bang for your buck. Then, when you know where you're going, you can book your flights, accommodation, and even events through KAYAK's trip management tool. Then, when the planning is done, they'll even provide you live updates on last-minute changes, so you're always prepared for the best - or worst - that life has to throw at you. If KAYAK were a transformer, it would be one of those big ones that all the little ones combine to make.
So, next time you plan a trip away, you won't need to stress about the minutiae. Simply grab one of the apps from the list above and make your getaway one to remember for all the right reasons!
