If you like to be organised (and let’s face it, everybody should), then you’ll love having lots of apps on your smartphone and tablet that can be very useful when you’re on the way to a foreign country. Before you even think about packing your bags, check out these travel apps that will make the whole process much easier:

Travel List

This app helps you to organise everything you’re putting in your suitcase. Add reminders for things that you’ll need to pack last minute, so that you’re all set before you leave. You can also use it to plan every stop on your trip and not miss out on anything. Add events to your calendar and get regular alerts too! If you’re like me and always feel like you’re forgetting something, this app can put your mind at rest.
