Travel enthusiasts and professionals have a lot of tools at their disposal that can make trips more enjoyable and productive. Here are five underrated tools that travelers should master.

Google Flights - While many people know about the flight search function, few realize there is an entire travel section within Google. This includes hotel searches as well as car rentals. It also has features like price graphs to help users find the cheapest time to travel and Explore destinations that are similar to ones they have searched for.

TripIt - While many people use this app to keep track of their travel plans, few realize it can also be used by other members of your family or staff. This allows them to see when you will be traveling and where so they can make accommodations as needed.

Duolingo - Learning a little bit about the language of the country you are visiting can go a long way towards making connections with locals. It may also help you avoid misunderstandings and show respect for the people whose home you are in.

TripCase - Like TripIt, this app can help keep your travel plans organized. It is particularly good at alerting travelers to flight changes or delays so they know what to expect when traveling.

Google Maps - Many people use these maps to get directions while driving or walking around a new city. Few realize that it also offers public transportation information for many cities worldwide and can help you find out where the best places are to eat or shop near your hotel.

Enjoy the little things in life. For one day, you may look back and realize they were the big things. Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
