The Google company has an endless number of useful tools for all kinds of tasks. Among them travel. You may not be familiar with it, but Google Trips (free for Android and iPhone) helps you every step of the way, both when planning a sightseeing tour and while enjoying it. And it is that it is a really useful tool for every traveler by saving within itself tourist routes, cultural information, hotel reservations and much more. And what's better, no Internet connection of any kind
It is not yet the definitive tool for all users, since it is in English. However, it is really useful for trips abroad or any trip in which the Internet connection, be it WiFi or data, is going to be conspicuous by its absence. Here we teach you how to organize your trips on Google Trips even when offline.
Reservation via email
Like most Google tools, Google Trips is also interconnected. It was designed to work directly with Gmail, the email client. In this way, using the same Gmail account, the travel app scans the user's inboxes automatically. From there it collects all the information about hotel reservations, flights, train trips, bus trips or even rental car reservations Enough to know when and where it will be the user's next trip.
With this you create an entry within Google Trips with the destination of the trip Now all that remains is to enter to know the different aspects that it presents . This is the only step where you need an Internet connection. Once Google Trips knows where and when, a connection is no longer needed.
Plan online
Still connected, the Google Trips user can check if the application has collected all the reservation information. Or, if you don't have them, you can search your destination to find suggestions from scratch From points of interest to planning visits, to information on how to get there , means of transportation and forms of he alth care.
The information is in English, but most of the content is accompanied by maps and photographs.Something reminiscent of the layout and design of Google Maps, and that allows any user to create their own plan. It is possible to store outstanding places or even create your own tourist plan around the places you want to visit.
Offline consultation
The best and most complete Google Trips experience happens when you're online. However, if the application already knows where we are going thanks to a previous reservation, this step is completed. It only remains to go to the organization or the consultation. And now yes, we can find ourselves in a foreign country and without mobile coverage, because we have all the contents that have previously been organized or consulted.
Now all that remains is to click on the Day Plans section, the most useful of this application. Here we find, already planned, visits to the place of destination.Different suggestions present up to 72 hours of activities and places to go All of this well explained and with a map that always marks the next point to visit. There are also half-day visits or even the possibility of designing your own visit.
The Need to know and Getting Around sections are also really helpful. Although in English, here is useful information for any offline visitor From telephone numbers of interest, to the location of hospitals, means of transportation or how to get to the place.
