Travelyaari

College days are some of the most exciting times for young travel enthusiasts — they can take a break after exams, cash-in on extended weekends and revel in the excitement of travel. However, it is important to find the right apps to maximise your fun quotient and also ensure affordable options. Here are three that won’t burn a hole in your pocket.

Travelyaari

Buses, hotels, tour packages and travel activities — Travelyaari gives you access to all this at one go. With transparent prices, accessibility and a “live” bus inventory, the app optimises your travel experience. It ensures assured booking by making its inventory “live”, and allows customers the choice seating. In case of cancellation from bus operators, Travelyaari also provides alternate means of transport. The bus booking panel in the new Travelyaari android app is amply aided by new verticals of hotels, tours and activities, thereby maintaining its value-for-money promise.

Travkart

If you are looking for specific travel packages, Travkart is the app for you. It offers both online and offline solutions and specialises in fixed departures and curated itineraries. For those who might be a bit absent-minded, the app ensures that from the time of booking until your tour is complete, you get reminders on your phone about your chosen destination. It has a host of features such as themed holidays and attractive day trips, and more.

Myles

If you are the kind whose idea of travel is getting into a car and driving off into the horizon in search of adventure, Myles, available on Google play and IOS, is your best bet. Myles is India’s first self-drive car rental service. How the apps works is you can start by requesting a self-drive car and it will direct you to the nearest parking lot with the car details. Once you locate it, press the unlock button on the app and the car would be ready. It will have a key inside and as soon as you crank up the ignition, your billing starts.
