The Best Travel Apps for Italy: Language, Food and Fun

Learn The Local Language with Duolingo

Although most Italians are well versed in English, it doesn't do any harm to learn some basics before arriving. It's all part of the Italian experience, and in my opinion we have one of the most beautiful languages in the world, so why not take a stab at learning it.

Duolingo makes learning basic Italian easy and convenient for travelers. With its user-friendly interface and gamified approach to language learning, Duolingo is an excellent tool for beginners who want to learn essential Italian phrases before their trip.

And if you're worried about using up your mobile data during your trip, don't fret! Duolingo allows you to download lessons to get offline use, so you can learn even without an internet connection.

App for Getting Around Italy

Lucky for you, there are several apps that make Italy travel a breeze.

One of the best apps for traveling by train isProntoTreno. With this app, you can book and manage train tickets, check the status of your booked trains, and plan your journey. It takes the hassle out of traveling by train in Italy, which is often the easiest and most efficient way to get around.

Another helpful app isZonzo Fox, a pocket guide to Italy that shows you what sights are worth seeing in the area you're visiting. With this app, you can create your own tailor-made itineraries and discover hidden gems that many tourists never get to experience. Plus, ZonzoFox curates suggestions from locals, so you can get a true insider's perspective on what to see and do.

And if you need to buy tickets for trains or coaches, look no further than the Trainline. This is the best app for train travel in my opinion. It lets you buy tickets on almost all train and coach companies in Italy. With Trainline, you can compare prices, get real-time travel updates, and avoid the hassle of waiting in long lines at the train station.
