Hi, all,
I'm collecting the apps we need to download before our trip, and so far have these:
Rick Steves :-)
G7
SNCF
RATP
Versailles (are there other sites where you can avoid renting an audio guide by using an app?)
Already have Citymapper and the usual mapping apps, Google Translate, etc.
Any other suggestions?
You should include your airlines’ apps too.
Via Michelin
Google Translate- download English to French and French to English ahead of trip so you don’t need wifi.
The Fork is useful in France for making restaurant reservation.
What's a restaurant reservation?
Don't use The Fork. TripAdvisor aren't all that good at keeping up to date, and the T&C's are a real drag on the restaurants. If you feel you must reserve, do it at lunchtime the day you wish to dine, at the restaurant. You will also get to see the current menu (in the Anglo sense of the word) and prices.
Get Organic Maps. It works offline, and it's accurate and up-to-date (something that Google maps isn't). It also does pretty decent walking directions.
Suki- great idea to download language to use google translate while offline! Thanks for the tip.
I always have XE too, currency converter app.
Toilettes Paris
FlashInvaders for fun.
Download a RS Audio Europe walking tour if you like
Lime if you want to enjoy the Green/White scooters around the city. There are other vendors.
UBER & or BOLT if you like
Enjoy.
city Mapper
Great post! Thank you all for great suggestions!
