There's no doubt that maps are essential for travelers. But what's the best way to use them? Here's a travel hack from Karl Shakur that will help you get the most out of your maps.
1. Use Google Maps
Google Maps is probably the most popular mapping tool out there. It's free to use and it's very accurate. Plus, it has a ton of features that can be really useful for travelers. For example, you can use it to find hotels, restaurants, and attractions in your destination. You can also use it to get directions and find out about public transportation.
2. Get a Local map
When you're in a new city, it can be helpful to have a physical map. You can usually find these at the tourism office or at your hotel. Having a local map will help you orient yourself and figure out where you are in relation to the main attractions. Plus, it's just nice to have a physical map to refer to when you're planning your day.
3. Use map Apps
There are also a ton of great map apps out there that can be really useful for travelers. Some of our favorites include Citymapper, Maps.Me, and Google Maps. These apps can help you find your way around a new city, get directions, and find attractions.
4. Print out a map
If you're going to be traveling to a place where you won't have access to the internet, it's a good idea to print out a map. This way, you'll always have a physical copy to refer to. Plus, it can be really helpful to have a map when you're trying to figure out where you are.
5. Get a travel Guide
Another great way to use maps is to get a travel guide. travel guides usually come with maps of the city or region that you're visiting. They can be really helpful for figuring out what to do and where to go. Plus, they often have other helpful information like tips for getting around, restaurant recommendations, and more.
