Welcome to the Trekora wiki!

Project Overview

Trekora is a mobile travel planning app designed to help users seamlessly organize their trips. From discovering destinations to booking flights and accommodations, Trekora aims to simplify travel planning by offering personalized recommendations, itinerary management, and essential travel tools—all in one place. Our app provides a streamlined experience to make trip planning easier and more enjoyable.

Project vision

Trekora’s long-term vision is to revolutionize how travelers plan and experience their trips by providing a comprehensive, AI-driven platform that covers every stage of a journey. Trekora will evolve to become a smart travel companion, offering dynamic suggestions for destinations, activities, dining, and accommodation based on user preferences, budgets, and travel history.

In future iterations, Trekora will include real-time updates such as weather, traffic, and event information. It could also leverage augmented reality for interactive tours of landmarks, provide language translation, and suggest local cuisines based on user preferences.

The ultimate vision is for Trekora to develop into a community platform, connecting users with locals, allowing itinerary sharing, and discovering fellow travelers with similar plans. This would position Trekora as the go-to tool for personalized and enriching travel experiences.
