A running directory of travel apps and sites, organized by what you are trying to do. Tap a category to open it.
The big booking sites, plus where each one actually wins.
Stay for free by swapping homes or looking after someone else’s pets.

For solo trips and long stretches on the road.
For travelers stretching a trip out for months, not weeks.
Not on the original list, but the tools we would not travel without.
Both are built for people traveling for months at a time, not a single one-week trip.
Prices, features, and country availability change often, always double-check in the app before you travel. Some links on this page may become affiliate links as our partnerships go live, at no extra cost to you.
