Travel apps for the Euro 2012

The European football championship offers many new ways of dicovering the cities hosting the tournment, either in Poland or Ukraine. One of interesting app I have found was Farol Warsaw. This seems to be a different approach and an easy way to visit a city when we know nothing at all about it.
you can try it here. The small price worth the money spent.

Other apps are also interesting to follow, such as tripadvisor for different cities, with recommendations from other users about restaurants, or booking.com for looking for a hotel.

Enjoy the Euro 2012

travel guides for mobile phones

The great number of smartphones available enable new sources of guidance. Travel apps for iPhone and Android can be found on the market. However, not all have the desirable quality for substitute the traditional travel guidebooks.
One interesting app that has the hability to genereate personalised tours is Farol City Guides. I have tried the app I am mus say it is quite promissing. You can try it at www.farolworld.com.

Somo other good apps include tripwolf, lonelly planet (although quite poor performance) and Rough Guides.

New era for travellers!
