Technology has invaded almost every aspect of our lives, what with apps being available for everything, and travelling is not far behind. In fact, travelling apps are some of the most helpful apps these days. They have gained massive recognition by people who travel on their own or in groups, because once an app gives accurate information to a tourist, there is no need for going around and asking people.

- Couchsurfing
India’s major cities are very familiar with couchsurfing, though the same cannot be said for the smaller ones.

Zomato is a popular food app in India, and based on the kind of food you’re looking for, it will provide results from a range of restaurants and cuisines that will suit your preference. Not only is it popular among tourists to easily find a good spot to eat, but locals use it just as much to pick out their favourite restaurant. Reviews and ratings are the way to find out whether a particular eatery is apt, and they’re easily available on the app to help you decide. This will ensure that you no longer have to spend hours on a decision of where and what to eat.
- Triposo
Another handy app for a tourist is Triposo which creates travel guides through information obtained from websites like Wikipedia, OpenStreetMaps, WikiTravel etc. It creates a travel and navigation guide which will inform you of tourist attractions nearby and modes of travelling to a particular spot.
