If your first reaction upon reading the name of this review was “oh no, not another Twitter app”, don’t worry because Witur may sound like Twitter but that’s where the similarities end. Witur is actually a space for people to share their travel itineraries, read detailed trip suggestions on a Google-powered geolocalized map, ask questions to the trip plan writers and locals and share trip plans with others.
The site is pretty easy to navigate and there are a variety of different ways that you can search including a search bar where you can plug in your destination and another that allows you to enter your interests as well. You can also search by clicking directly on the map and seeing what trips people have taken and what they recommend. Lastly, search by trip type which include amongst other categories: nature, history, relax, coast, adventure, gastronomy and shopping.
