Oh! Lost on the way. Now in this case there is no need to fret. No need to ask anyone for directions. The only thing you must have is access to the internet. You can get directions to any destination by Google maps. The most easy and convenient way to find the way out.
Google map is very propitious for finding directions from one place to another. To access it just go to Google and click on maps at the top. Just mention the place you are at and the place you need to reach. You will get the way easily.
If you want to find a hotel on your way just mention the name of the places in your way and word hotel on the left side of the screen. By default Google maps will show you two place to mention A and B. On clicking on add destination you can get the third option C. Enter your current location in A and destination in C along with the word “hotels” in B. So it will show you the way with the blue color line between A and C going from hotel indicated as B. You can get the route to go by car, public transport, walking and bicycling. There are options for these four modes just above A.
It calculates the time in which you would reach to the place in each mode of transport. In case of public transport it will first give you the direction to reach the place from which you could get the public transport and then the route to your destination. In case of by car option it also shows the cost of fuel you need to reach your destination. It also gives turn-by-turn guidance.
