In 1997, Google revolutionized the way we surf the web. Then in 2005, Google revolutionized the way we get from point A to point B with Google Maps. Now Google is attempting to further revolutionize the way we travel with one of their newest innovations, Google Trips.

Lauded as one of the company’s most exciting products to date, Google Trips is a smartphone travel app intended to be a “personalized tour guide in your pocket.” Much like a tour guide, Google Trips provides travelers with a customized list of things to see and do in destinations all over the world. The only difference is that these suggestions are available to you at the touch of a button anytime, anywhere. So, if you don’t like the itinerary Google Trips has created for you, simply tap the “magic wand” icon for a new list of nearby attractions along with directions and hours of operation updated in real-time.

Another advantage to using Google Trips is its ability to gather and organize important travel information. It does so automatically by monitoring your Gmail account for emails that include relevant info like reservations and confirmation numbers. Gone are the days of scrambling to find your misplaced boarding pass or scouring through hundreds of emails to find the particular one you need. Google Trips takes the hassle out of travel by storing all you necessary info in one straightforward, easy-to-use app. Best of all, Google Trips can be accessed in its entirety while offline, meaning that you’ll still be able to see your info even if you don’t have any service.

With Google Trips you’ll feel like a local no matter where you are in the world. Its intuitive design, numerous features, and seamless compatibility with the Google products we all use every day make it the perfect pocket-sized travel companion. Google Trips is available for free on both iOS and Android devices.
