Whether you’re heading to the sunny climes  of Majorca, or crossing the ocean to The States, it’s fair to say you’ll be taking a smart device. The real question is, how often do you set aside time to see what apps you can download in advance that could actually save you money while you’re abroad?

Want to save money while you're abroad?

By scoping out and downloading all your apps before you take off off you can make sure you don’t make the classic holidaying mistake of having no other option than sticking  to the tourist trail which is unfulfilling and also likely to be more expensive.  If you are looking to ditch your usual diet and try out some local dishes or maybe you just want to save some cash, travel apps can make your holidays cheaper and easier.  

Emma Coulthurst of TravelSupermarket said: “You’ve booked your holiday, car hire and sorted your extras like travel insurance and airport parking. But one other way in which you could save yourself both time and money is by doing some research on the best apps for the destination which you’re heading to. Apps can help you find the best restaurants to eat at and the best activities to do while you’re there. Download any apps before you leave for the airport to save on your data allowance.”

There are countless apps for IOS and Android and it can be hard to know where to start… But, if you want to get out and explore your new surroundings Travel Supermarket has come up with 5 must-have apps to pack along with your swim suit and sun tan lotion for your holiday this year.
