In the race of being the most popular search engine, Google never fails to impress. This time it has expanded its horizon a bit more, especially catering to its travel-fanatic users. Google has recently unveiled three new Search features to facilitate the process of researching hotels, booking flights and planning holidays.

This comes shortly after the announcement of new means for verifying information on Search and the launch of extreme heat alerts to help people stay safe during heat waves. Not to mention the launching of new features in the healthcare center two weeks ago that will assist people in finding the best and most cost-effective medical clinic in their area.

Google Travel is a thorough and helpful travel tool that makes it easier to organize a trip. Previously known as Google Trips, Google Travel is now a widely used travel service. It was first released as a mobile app in 2016 and then as a web-based trip planner in 2019.  Now the recent developments in this search engine have made it even more convenient for people to plan out their trips and get the best results without paying a penny. So, what are these three features exactly? Let’s dig a bit deeper into this new announcement by the Tech Giant.

New Features in Google Travel

The three amazing features introduced by Google Travel include finding cheap prices, browsing hotels and discovering destinations. Read on to discover more about these features.

Book Cheaper Flights

Book Cheap Flights with Google

Google has now enabled users to monitor the pricing of flights between two locations for their intended travel dates through the Google Flights feature of Google Travel. The current feature enables you to observe whether the current cost is low, average or high in comparison to past prices, and this badge exceeds the already existing services.

The price guarantee badge implies that Google is confident the price isn’t going to decrease. If you book with Google and the price drops, you will be given a refund for the difference. According to Google, it will monitor the price every day until departure, and if it does go down, it’ll send you back the difference via Google Pay. What’s better than that right?

Browsing Hotels Made Easy

Another one of the most exciting Google Travel features is here you can find a fast and easy way to browse accommodation. All you need to do is search for a hotel and tap to view more and you’ll be presented with numerous options in a swipeable story format. Through this, you can view photos of the hotel, save them to your device, look up more information on the area, and see what people find noteworthy about the property. Once you’re finished, you can swipe up to continue browsing. You can also use filters to narrow down your selection by price, rating, class, and amenities.

A New Way to Discover Destinations

Time to say goodbye to tiring hours spent searching and planning travel destinations before starting your trip. Now with Google Travel, you can do that just with a few clicks. Users can search for an attraction or tour company and pick their options. The feature also displays the prices of attractions and tour companies, plus a link to book a ticket. Furthermore, for certain attractions users will find suggestions for related experiences, like a city-wide tour that stops at multiple places. This feature has made it convenient for people to find fun things to do while travelling and has saved them the hassle of spending hours trying to sort, plan and organize a trip.

To Summarize…

The three new updates in Google Travel are incredibly beneficial for those who are looking for their ideal travel destination. These features will not only help you with planning a well-organized and cost-effective trip but will also save a lot of time. The option of finding local destinations and preferred types of accommodation is especially helpful for those who are visiting a place for the first time and need to be well-prepared for their vacation. All in all, Google Travel is an incredibly useful tool that makes planning a trip much easier.
