Taxi app 'GO' and 'Japan Travel by NAVITIME' partner to make travel more convenient for visitors to Japan
The taxi dispatch app 'GO' and the travel app for international visitors to Japan, 'Japan Travel by NAVITIME,' have launched a partnership. This collaboration will make it easier for foreigners visiting Japan to arrange taxis.
'Japan Travel by NAVITIME' is a service that allows users to create travel plans and make bookings within Japan, and it is used by over 2 million international tourists every month. With this partnership, users can now access the 'GO' taxi dispatch function directly from the map and route search screens within the app.
Until now, many tourists have hesitated to use taxis due to concerns about language barriers and a lack of familiarity with the area. However, with this new feature, they can call a taxi smoothly while checking the route to their destination. This is expected to reduce travel time at tourist spots and enable a more comfortable travel experience.
According to data from the Japan National Tourism Organization, the number of foreigners visiting Japan is increasing year by year. Creating an environment where tourists can travel without stress is extremely important for Japan's tourism industry.
This service partnership will be a great help to foreigners visiting tourist destinations in Japan. It is expected that the travel experience in Japan will continue to improve as more convenient services utilizing technology are introduced.
