Apps To Help You Travel With Others

When traveling to a new and unfamiliar destination, there are now a number of apps to help you connect to people with similar interests, or those who may be in similar lifestyle situations.

 

There’s Huggle, which connects you to people who may be visiting the same places you are — ranging from gyms to libraries to local cafes.

 

Meetup helps you arrange group outings based on common interests — ranging from cooking to dance classes.

 

Some of the apps are even more specifically targeted. Tourlina helps solo women travelers find appropriate companions on their trips.

 

And there’s Peanut if you’re traveling and a new mom. It will connect you to other traveling mothers with similar travel goals and challenges.
