THE OUTCOME

A pocket travel agent helps explorers discover nearby activities that match their interests

The AllTravels app prototype enables travelers to feel like they have a friend in a new place, even if they know no one. Using the “Explore” feature, travelers simply indicate their preferences in a format that resembles talking to a knowledgeable local and they receive a carefully curated, map-based itinerary for the day.
