Travel Apps for Travellers

Foreign language or currency transactions, these apps are designed to help you make the most of your technology on your travels. Be digital-savvy with our top 3 favourite travel apps.

 

Memrise

You don’t need to be fluent in Japanese or Swedish to get around during your leisure time without our trusty programme leader. Memrise, an award-winning language learning app, will help you pick up key phrases in no time. With a range of languages to choose from, this free help is both addictive and effective.

XE Currency

You might have heard of their website. Now, the famous currency converter has got an app. The best part? It works offline too, so you don’t have to worry about roaming data charges when you want to buy that souvenir. While waiting for your flight, you may even want to explore several of their interesting business features.

LiveTrekker

This is your new digital travel journal. It maps your route on your travels and allows you to add multimedia to capture your memories vividly. An interactive map that records your altitude and speed, LiveTrekker is your new adventure buddy.

Small group tours for senior travellers

Odyssey Traveller is famous for our small groups, and we average eight participants per tour. Our maximum group size is eighteen people, which ensures quality, flexibility and care that is tailored to our clients. We specialise in small group tours for the senior traveller who is seeking adventure or is curious about the world we live in. Typically, our clients begin travelling with us from their mid 50’s onward. But be prepared to meet fellow travellers in their 80s and beyond! Both couples and solo travellers are very welcome on our tours.
