\nThe Travelstart app<\/a> is a locally-built app available on Android<\/a> and iOS<\/a> which gets you the fastest and cheapest possible flights. It’s great because you can search, book and pay in a matter of seconds and you can book a flight up to two hours before departure. All you need to do is download the app for free and then save your passenger data and payment details for instantaneous, secure two-tap bookings. You’ll get your e-ticket via email.<\/p>\n

You’re walking down a street in a foreign city. There’s a lot going on beneath the surface, but you don’t have access to that insider knowledge because you’re a visitor- this is why you should download VoiceMap<\/a>. The app suggests walking routes and as you follow the suggested route the location-aware stories and perspectives of local people, novelists or tour guides play in your ears. It’s an unobtrusive, atmospheric tourist guide. So far local destinations include the Overberg, Hermanus, Johannesburg, the Cape Winelands and Cape Town.
