Review of Duffelup – Benefits of duffelup.com for families
Are you looking forward to going on a trip but dread the planning process? Or are you the type who enjoys planning but finds it hard to collect and put together information? If you’re going on a group or family trip, are you having a hard time getting everyone’s buy-in on places to go, sites to see, and hotels to stay-in?
Duffel presents you with the easiest, most organized and creative solutions to these travel woes with duffelup.com. The site provides you with everything you need in planning a trip anywhere around the world, from providing suggestions on sites, accommodations, dining, to reminders on what to bring, who to see, flight details, etc. But unlike any other site, you are given your own duffel that you can share with your friends and the public should they have any thoughts and suggestions on your trip. This duffel may be created even way before you actually start the planning process, or when you’ve just begun dreaming about your trip.
The duffel becomes your own corkboard (literally) where you can stick ideas and locations that you want or plan to visit and plot them through Google Map. These stick-ons can be made out of photos, websites and links to the destinations, such as hotels, restaurants, and sites that give complete information and enable you to book directly. It also shows prices of recommended attractions such as theme parks, museums, and activities, so you can see everything in a glance.
Other Great Features
- You can also have access to other people’s duffels to either copy or build on them.
- One can easily drag and drop these stick ons to help organize the trip’s itinerary.
- It also allows you to collaborate with your family and friends to create your own or group itinerary whether online or through Facebook and Twitter.
- The duffel becomes a visual summary of the trip that everyone can appreciate and look forward to.
Your duffel also goes around with you as it can be accessible through an iPhone application. Any time you think of anything related to your trip, you can easily access and update your duffel. In case you are lost in a foreign country and need to go to a certain destination that is in your duffel, you can show the picture of the landmark on your iPhone to get pointed towards the right direction.
Check out a sample duffel for a London trip scheduled in September and see for yourself how Duffel makes it easy to plan your upcoming trip. Duffel may also be used to plan a destination wedding or organize a conference, and with Facebook and Twitter link ups, people are sure to get involved. Sign up and experience trip planning like you’ve never experienced it before.
We can recommend it as great tool for planning family vacations and holidays.
