The MobyTrip app recognizes that the work behind planning a dream vacation can be enough to keep people from taking it.
Perfect trips don't happen by accident -- they require searches across a handful of different platforms, from reading Wikipedia pages to checking Yelp and reading TripAdvisor reviews to looking at Instagram photos. The MobyTrip app aggregates all this and more onto its site, letting travelers easily decide where to go and what to see once they're there.
One of the best features of the site is its crowdsourcing: it allows other MobyTrip app-users to upload pictures and details from their trips. So, if a new user is looking to take a trip to city that they don't know much about, they can follow the footsteps of other MobyTrippers.
