Apps for travel, hotels, and tour operators

Travelers handle almost everything from their phones, especially when they’re far from home. A hotel app lets them check in, order room service, and book the spa without calling the front desk. For agencies and tour operators, a travel app brings together the itinerary, vouchers, meeting points, and destination guide. We build it in multiple languages, with maps and content that work even with no signal.

Updated:

  • Guests served from their phones
  • Itineraries and vouchers always at hand
  • Multiple languages and offline use

Travel and hotel app FAQ

Does the app work offline?

Yes. Maps, itineraries and guides can be downloaded for use without a signal, which is key in rural or mountain areas.

Does it connect to my hotel's booking system?

If your PMS or booking engine has an API, we integrate it so guest information flows in automatically.

How many languages can it support?

As many as you need. We set up the app for multiple languages, and you upload or approve the translations.

Is an app worth it for a small hotel?

It depends on how many guests come back and how many add-on services you sell. Sometimes a web app with no download is enough; we'll tell you honestly.

What else are tourism apps called?

People also search for this as a hotel app, tourism app, travel agency app or tour guide app. It ties in with business apps, sales force tools, inventory, ERP integration, and roles and permissions, which we review with you when your project needs them.

Can’t find your question?

Which of these services do you need?
