Weltweg

About

Weltweg is the travel companion for anyone heading to Africa. It works offline, because where you’re going there’s no signal. SOS, ALWAYS ONE TAP AWAY Police and ambulance for the country you’re in, recognised by GPS even offline. Your location with a code you can read out over the phone. A ready-written message to Weltweg, on WhatsApp or by SMS. Your nationality’s embassy, with its emergency number. If you ask, Weltweg can see your location for a few hours and help you. BEFORE YOU LEAVE The countdown, your destination’s season month by month (including where NOT to go, and why), a packing list to tick off, the safari quiz, country stories and 114 cards on parks, animals, natural wonders and peoples to read on the plane. ON THE TRIP Your day hour by hour, with sunrise and sunset calculated for where you are. The trip map with your stops, the parks and your location, even in airplane mode. The sightings notebook: log a species with one tap and find out how rare it is. Currency, ten phrases in the local language, emergency numbers and where you’re sleeping tonight, always to hand. STAMPS AND CERTIFICATES Enter a park with location on and the stamp is added by itself: 54 parks in ten countries, to collect trip after trip. Cross the Tropic of Capricorn or the Equator by road and your certificate arrives, ready to share. BACK HOME Your trip book has written itself, one page a day. The summary (days, kilometres, species, parks) fits on a card to send to those who stayed at home. IF YOU BOOKED WITH WELTWEG Enter your booking code and surname: the app becomes your itinerary, with your local contact’s tip for every stop. No account, no password. IF YOU’RE STILL CHOOSING Weltweg trips with prices and programmes, and “Create your trip”: pick countries, dates and comfort, see the estimated price and get a proposal within one working day. YOUR PRIVACY No ads, no tracking. What you record stays on your phone. Your location stays on your phone, unless you choose to share it with Weltweg from SOS.
