TalkTravel is a voice mobile application that enables travellers to speak, in their own preferred language, to destination experts (local residents or people who have enough information about a place to guide others). TalkTravel enables travellers to quickly get answers to travel planning and other travel related questions and from a very authentic source. It reduces time and effort needed to plan travel and provide a more rich and authentic travel experience to travellers. It is free to download and use (for now) without any local phone network charges of the user. TalkTravel's main revenue source is Call Subscription, wherein travellers pay for calls made and information received from the destination experts, thus aiming to promote local economy and income opportunities for locals.
I found this app on iTunes and must say it is an innovative approach towards traveling. The people with whom I spoke were informative on the subject and friendly, will use them in the future as well
