Just downloaded this app to help prepare for my trip to Japan and it’s great. Excellent detailed information and Suki the AI travel guide is awesome. It’s great to use this app because it does the hard work for you finding the best places you must visit on your trip. Looking forward to visiting some of the places I’ve mapped out.
