The Europe Guide application is designed to replace printed pocket guides. It offers helpful travel tips and valuable information for tourists visiting or planning to visit Europe. The app offers curated lists of essential locations and activities, exclusive audio stories, and select guided tours in various European destinations. • We base our recommendations on our own knowledge and research rather than aggregating them from other sources. • Our experts test all of the travel experiences we offer. • We collaborate with local guides to enhance and update the content, ensuring it remains current. • The list of destinations continually expands, and we are working on adding more quality content. FEATURES AT A GLANCE • DETAILED DOWNLOADABLE MAPS provide an easy way to determine your current location and get directions to a place you need. • CURATED LISTS OF LOCATIONS AND ACTIVITIES. Our team diligently works to research each of the included destinations. Our recommended lists of locations and activities are created by local experts and rated by fellow travelers. • THE BEST TRAVEL EXPERIENCES. We offer short lists of carefully selected travel experiences with local guides for most of our European destinations. • CREATE YOUR OWN LISTS OF FAVORITES. Some destinations have so many attractions that it's impossible to see them all in a short trip. Swipe Left or Right to mark “Visited” or “Favorite” locations, and use filters to see only the objects you are interested in on the map or in the lists. • ACTIVITY BOOKING. We provide a booking link for most of the listed attractions, allowing you to plan ahead and reserve your activities with trusted providers from the app, eliminating the need for additional searches. • AUDIO STORIES. We provide informative audio descriptions of the essential attractions in each destination. • AVAILABLE ONLINE AND OFFLINE. All content is available for download, so you don’t have to use mobile data. Downloading the content of a selected destination will extend your battery life and help you avoid roaming charges. Please contact us at hello@europeguide.app if you have any questions or suggestions.
