  that can come in handy as you navigate your travel plans.

<h2>1. Yelp</h2>

<div>
  Providing numerous recommendations and reviews, Yelp has grown as one of the
  most popular apps of its kind. Whether you&rsquo;re looking for a top-rated
  restaurant or somewhere cool to visit, Yelp can be a valuable resource to find
  the perfect attractions that fit your interests.&nbsp;
</div>

<h2>2. Hotels.com</h2>

<div>
  This app allows users to search and compare hundreds of thousands of hotels
  using real guest reviews. The best part is if you book 10 nights with
  Hotels.com, you will get one night free!
</div>



<h2>3. Skype</h2>

<div>
  As exhilarating as traveling can be, it&rsquo;s easy to feel homesick in a new
  city. Skype allows users to make video calls, a free feature if you&rsquo;re
  communicating with someone who also has the app. Rather than simple phone
  calls and texts, the video chat function on Skype can help you feel right at
  home as you reconnect with your loved ones!&nbsp;

<h2>4. Medscape</h2>

<div>
  An app that makes life easier on the job, Medscape allows users to quickly
  look up medications, dosages and adverse drug combinations through its
  &ldquo;drug reference tool.&rdquo;Most interestingly, it serves as a
  comprehensive medical news service that can keep you updated with all the
  latest updates in your field!&nbsp;
