Summer just gets keeping worse and nothing seems so hunky-dory anymore. All of us crave for that escape to some surreal hide-out amidst valleys, mountains or a sandy beachside.

According to a popular survey, every 1 in 5 U.S citizens said that they compulsarily plan a holiday every year. A good 42% suggested taking two or more. Taking this a little further, the figures this year just hit a new high. Every 1 in 4 persons now are packing their bags.

Tempting surely!

On the flip side, it isn't so easy to take off on a whim. It needs concerted planning in terms of  sorting out a destination, booking flight tickets, accomodation so on and so forth.

Are you a potential workaholic, working a tight schedule with no time to make arrangements? Rest assured we bring for you easy-to-use apps list compiled by Appcelator, a mobile platform.

2. TripLingo

All of us desire to visit places unknown from the French Riviera to Italian Gondola vacations to the Indian hotspots.

Compatible on all iOS devices, the award winning app comes with 1200 language phrases including slangs, a voice-to-voice translator, 10,000 word offline dictionary, high quality audio files and even a "culture crash course".  While the free version of the app comes with phrases in 11 languages, for a full blown hands-on language tool you need to activate the complete language pack.Absolutely.

Available in a handful of markets currently, TapHunter is a no nonsense app for those who like to explore new places on their own, especially eating and drinking hangouts. TapHunter tells you which are the happening breweries, their locations and the best of the "tap" options.

4. TripBridge

This is an app for those looking for the perfect road trips or off-roading rides. At the tap on your tab or smartphone, you can easily scale and explore areas in the vicinity with the app's in-vehicle navigation system. Sounds a lot like the GPS or Google maps, right? Well it isn't. All you need is a car fitted with the NaviBridge. The app uses Foursquare to locate all the must-visit places on the maps for you to drive on seamlessly.
