Travelling is a not a hobby any more. It has grown more than this. It was a few years back when travelling to off beat locations were too risky as mostly no info was available on staying there, travelling options, renting a car, fooding or parking availability etc. I have seen several travel operators around 90's and 2000's who severely faltered in coordination due to lack of info. Obviously there were better travel operators but most of them lacked the required info.
These days we don't need operators to arrange our trips. Event some of them are frequent flyers for their office or business activities. There are several websites & apps available which erased the gap between countries and information. Here are a list of some of the apps (surely smartphones have gone beyond laptops & desktops these days) which can make your life easy while travelling or arranging your next trip
